An error occurred when I was running "ionic cordova platform add ios"

Question

An error occurred when I was running ionic cordova platform add ios.It noticed me with the information

[ERROR] Cordova encountered an error. You may get more insight by running the Cordova command above directly.

[ERROR] An error occurred while running cordova platform add ios --save (exit code 1):

    Using cordova-fetch for cordova-ios@^4.4.0
    Adding zone.js project...
    Error: Your zone.js platform does not have Api.js”

I had tried to update the version of ionic / cordova and also reinstalled node.js and npm.But It still no worked.

Who can tell me how to resolve this problem。Thank you.

Answer 1

This problem had been resolved by using commands

cordova platform rm ios
cordova platform add ios --nofetch

Answer 2

Your iOS platform seems to corrupted. Please remove and re-add the platform to resolve the issue using following commands:

cordova platform rm ios

cordova platform add ios

EDIT

If it happens when you try ionic cordova run/build android it will work with the same steps

cordova platform rm android

cordova platform add android

Then run ionic cordova run/build android and it will work.
