I got it working. Not sure why.
For some reason in the AndroidManifest.xml this was missing.
<provider android:authorities="${applicationId}.opener.provider" android:exported="false" android:grantUriPermissions="true" android:name="io.github.pwlin.cordova.plugins.fileopener2.FileProvider">
<meta-data android:name="android.support.FILE_PROVIDER_PATHS" android:resource="@xml/opener_paths" />
</provider>
All my other apps had it. It makes sense that I would need the "opener_paths"
The only thing I'm notice off hand that is a little different with this app is:
<uses-sdk android:minSdkVersion="22" android:targetSdkVersion="27" />
My other apps are using
<uses-sdk android:minSdkVersion="16" android:targetSdkVersion="26"/>
Would that cause this? I have uninstalled android and add it back. I removed the plugin and put my original one 2.0.19 back.
@newuser44 closing this ticket as a duplicate of https://github.com/pwlin/cordova-plugin-file-opener2/issues/215. It seems to be the same issue. The plugin makes changes to the Android manifest xml file and if your config.xml also attempts to make changes then there is a clash and this error occurs. Looking into a fix now.
Expected Behaviour
Be able to open a saved file
Actual Behaviour
fileOpener catch path is called with error Console log dump -- Error Opening Statement file: Attempt to invoke virtual method 'android.content.res.XmlResourceParser android.content.pm.ProviderInfo.loadXmlMetaData(android.content.pm.PackageManager, java.lang.String)' on a null object reference
Steps to Reproduce
?? Download a blob file. Save the file to the phone. Open the file using fileOpener.
