How to fix no such file - ios/platform_www/cordova.js

Question

When I run ionic cordova prepare ios on my Macbook Air, I get the following error:

ENOENT: no such file or directory, open '/Users/myUserID/Ionic/myApp/platforms/ios/platform_www/cordova.js

I was previously able to run this command but after moving my latest code over (from Windows machine), now suddenly there is an issue.

Any ideas on where to troubleshoot this? Or what causes it?

Answer 1

Try the following commands in order:

ionic cordova platform rm android --save
ionic cordova platform add android@latest --save

Answer 2

It seems the project is missing cordova.js on platforms folder & while building it missing some important files , So you can run below commands for respective platforms.

Android

ionic cordova platform rm android --save
ionic cordova platform add android --save

iOS

ionic cordova platform rm ios --save
ionic cordova platform add ios --save

It should work..
