Cordova Platforms : ios 4.5.5

You are running cordova-ios 4.5.5, this is fixed in cordova-ios 5.0.x.

daviddickson commented 4 years ago

@dpogue I must be missing something. I ran npm install cordova-ios@latest and according to package.json it is at 5.0.1 - "cordova-ios": "^5.0.1". Am I updating the wrong thing?

brodybits commented 4 years ago

I ran npm install cordova-ios@latest […]

I think that will not work on a Cordova project.

I highly recommend that you start with another “blank” project, with a limited number of plugins, and do cordova platform add ios@latest or ionic cordova platform add ios@latest.

In case of continued problems, please give us a more exact set of commands that we have to do to install the Ionic CLI, create the project, add the plugins, and reproduce your issue. Most of us do not actively support use with Ionic.

@brodybits ionic cordova platform add ios@latest worked in a new blank project and in the current project I'm working on (after removing the platform first). Thanks!

brodybits commented 4 years ago

Thanks @daviddickson. I think this needs to be documented by the Ionic project.

brodybits commented 4 years ago

That your Ionic tool gave you old cordova-ios version indicates to me that you have an old version of Ionic CLI installed. I just tried the following steps:

and the following piece of output indicates to me that it does use cordova-ios@5, as required:

Using cordova-fetch for cordova-ios@^5.0.0

I highly recommend that you install recent version of Ionic CLI and ensure that you installed recent version of other tools such as Cordova CLI.

@brodybits ionic cordova platform add ios@latest worked in a new blank project and in the current project I'm working on (after removing the platform first). Thanks!

Thanks, work here!

I was using node 6.3.1 and cordova 6.5.0 Once I tried to use ios@5.0.x I got an error asking for module cordova-common Then I tried to rebuild the whole cordova project with node 10.x and cordova 9.0.0 again with node and then I was able to use ios@5.0.x platform.

warning: I would suggest to make a backup for your current cordova build before rebuilding.

prat3ik commented 4 years ago

Updating ios to the latest worked for me~ 1) cordova platform remove ios // To remove existing ios lib. 2) ionic cordova platform add ios@latest// Update to latest

pratik-scotts commented 4 years ago

Or we can try these: cordova platform remove ios cordova platform add ios@latest

wiredlain commented 3 years ago

in my case, the problem was in the file 'platforms/ios/cordova/lib/list-emulator-build-targets' line 53 app.

if (device.name === deviceType.name.replace(/\-inch/g, ' inch') && device.availability) { when availability is doesn't exists.

i change the line for this one. if (device && device.name === deviceType.name.replace(/\-inch/g, ' inch') && device.isAvailable) {
