[volkergraf]

Hello trying to install the Plugin I get the following Error.. Any Idead ?

cordova plugin add https://github.com/floatinghotpot/cordova-httpd.git

Error: Failed to fetch plugin https://github.com/floatinghotpot/cordova-httpd.git via registry.
Probably this is either a connection problem, or plugin spec is incorrect.
Check your connection and plugin name/version/URL.

it seems a network connection problem. try installing it from npm instead:

plugin install cordova-plugin-httpd

[jayenashar]

have been trying a few times. and another github repo works fine. (https://github.com/mapsplugin/cordova-plugin-googlemaps.git ). the npm version works fine, too.

could it be an issue with the latest cordova or cordova-android?

[jayenashar]

i see the master branch has no package.json. could that be an issue?
