Cordova build returns missing plugin.xml

Question

When i build my cordova project i get an warning message as:

Missing file: /home/vijay/workspace/Repos_temp/QuickTraq_Android/plugins/

Answer 1

The plugin.xml looks to be missing. The path to each added plugin's plugin.xml should be:

 <yourapp>/plugins/<some-plugin>/plugin.xml

If you cannot find the plugin.xml files in those folders, you will have to manually download it from its git resource. Try adding device-rotation-vector's xml from here and then run:

cordova plugin remove cordova-plugin-device-rotation-vector

If it works correctly, do the same for Toast plugin.

You can find the list of plugins installed using:

cordova plugin list

Answer 2

These solutions not worked for me. I just restarted the command prompt, then everything working fine

Answer 3

SOLVED

Please try to add the plugin from GitHub repository. I had to install app-preferences plugin. So, I just did it like:

$ cordova plugin add https://github.com/apla/me.apla.cordova.app-preferences

Answer 4

Close all Windows that may touch upon the install. Then try to install again.

W10:... I had an open Command Prompt open to an Android build output folder. The install was unable to delete a file, which failed the install, until after I closed the Command Prompt window.

Answer 5

Remove folder "plugin_name" in rootApp_folder/plugins/plugin_name and try to add again.
