Problem exporting the apk

[Simone Manduchi]

Hi everyone.

I'm new to phonegap.

I created the environment

> phonegap create 0SC  -n MYname -i com.example.0SC

and the first strange thing is that remains "Helloworld"

I've set JAVA_HOME in cmd and build android in "0SC"

Well, after this, I went to eclipse and I've imported the existing project ( strange the new project names are: HelloWorld and HelloWorld-Cordovalib (and not myname))

anyway I've edited Helloworld-->www-->index.html but when I try to export the APK (and I must disable Auto Building, otherwise I would receive conversion to dalvik format failed with error 1) the APK is created but it is the base version (Helloworld and default index)

Why?

Thank you very much,

[sayap biru]

dalvik format failed with error : Clean Project and rebuild it

strange the new project names are: HelloWorld and HelloWorld-Cordovalib (and not myname) : before you build first go to www/config.xml...change to whatever name u want then build....when u imported to eclipse it will change to ur name define in config.xml

[Simone Manduchi]

Obviously I tried.

I tried to edit the config.xml file but without any result, moreover why does not the app change (after I change the index.html file)?

I think there might be some error in the install, so I've restored the system and I'm following this guide: http://codingsquare.blogspot.in/2013/08/creating-cordova-3-android-project.html

but when I run cordova -d platform add android
it gives me this error: Command finished with error code ENOENT

I think that the problem may be linked with JAVA PATH or ANT.

Because if I run "java" or "ant" I got no results.

My system vars are:

ANDROID_HOME C:\Users\Fregior\Desktop\adt-bundle-windows-x86-20140321\sdk\
ANT_HOME C:\Users\Fregior\Desktop\Downloads\ant
JAVA_HOME C:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.8.0\

Path: C:\Program Files (x86)\NVIDIA Corporation\PhysX\Common;%SystemRoot%\system32;%SystemRoot%;%SystemRoot%\System32\Wbem;%SYSTEMROOT%\System32\WindowsPowerShell\v1.0\;C:\Program Files (x86)\Windows Live\Shared;C:\Program Files\nodejs\;%JAVA_HOME%\bin;%ANT_HOME%\bin;%ANDROID_HOME%\platform-tools;%ANDROID_HOME%\tools;

I tryed to run set JAVA_HOME=C:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.8.0 and set ANT_HOME=C:\Users\Fregior\Desktop\Downloads\ant

but nothing happened.

I don't wanna try any weird operation, I think it's better to ask you

Thank you very much for your help.

Check the contents in assets www folder. The contents of the app are displayed from the assets www folder, not the root www folder. 

When you uses the phonegap command line utility it copies the content form root www folder to assets www folder.

Also for create the project, you have to pass the third argument which is the application name -

phonegap create OSC com.example.OSC OSC

Also if you want to change the application name and you are using Eclipse, when you forget to add the third parameter, then you can do so in the Strings.xml file which is present in res->values folder.

[Simone Manduchi]

Thanks. I'll follow your advices (anyway, my command was "create OSC com.example.OSC OSC)
but first of all I must reinstall everything and I have not resolved the previous problem: <<Command finished with error code ENOENT>> and I'd like to avoid operations of which I'm not sure so I asked you.

Thank you very much for your help!
I really appreciate it

[sayap biru]

 
ok...could you please run this first : npm cache clean
and try again.....

Ok my experience if u run phonegap create OSC com.example.OSC OSC
Before add platform android go to www/config.xml,replace HelloWorld.
then run phonegap install android or phonegap build android.
Using phonegap command u dont have to add platform android. -will give u error.

if you run using cordova create OSC com.example.OSC OSC. You dont need to edit anything.

From what i see...i dont know why using phonegap command it does not compile properly in xml.But if you use cordova command, you dont have problem....

[Simone Manduchi]

Thanks again for your reply.

I'm using cordova (there isn't any difference with phonegap, is it?) and this is the error I recieve:

http://www.hosting.universalsite.org/image-cmd-0B46_53555ACE.jpg

I think it might be "ant" the problem but I can't understand where I'm wrong.

Thanks!

[Rahul]

have you added the ant bin directory in your Path variable?

[Simone Manduchi]

Yes in system variables I have:
ANT_HOME => C:\Users\Fregior\Desktop\Downloads\ant

and Path => C:\Program Files (x86)\NVIDIA Corporation\PhysX\Common;%SystemRoot%\system32;%SystemRoot%;%SystemRoot%\System32\Wbem;%SYSTEMROOT%\System32\WindowsPowerShell\v1.0\;C:\Program Files (x86)\Windows Live\Shared;C:\Program Files\nodejs\;%JAVA_HOME%\bin;%ANT_HOME%\bin;%ANDROID_HOME%\platform-tools;%ANDROID_HOME%\tools;

Is here anything wrong? 

Thanks

[Mobile Development]

What about user variable? In the command prompt where you are running the cordova command what path does it show? You can see it using this command => echo %PATH%

[Simone Manduchi]

The problem, now I think it is Java:

http://www.hosting.universalsite.org/image-myfile-DA86_53557735.jpg

[Mobile Development]

Ok, You can try this. Uninstall the Java, reboot the machine. This should remove all the Java path from the system. Now re install the Java, but this time do not install the public JRE which is shown during the installation along with the JDK.​ It will automatically add the path, if not add it manually. But try to run the java command in command prompt before adding the path.

[Simone Manduchi]

Ok, thanks but I'm afraid it has not solved the problem:

(That is the one I quoted in the first post)

Thanks for your help! Again

1) Go to your users directory and delete folder with the name .android and .cordova.

2) Now open your command prompt and type android and press enter. It should open the Android SDK manger and command should not 

given any error in the prompt.

3) Now close the SDK manager. Clear the npm cache  and install the cordova again.

   

   npm cache clean

   npm install cordova -g  

  After that close the CMD prompt and open it again.  

4) create your project again with the following command

   cordova create OSC com.example.OSC OSC

5) Now cd to your project directory and run this command without " -d "-

    

    cordova platform add android

[Simone Manduchi]

 

Thanks i follow your points and I receive an error (about Java) in the last one

I really can't understand why Java gives me this kind of problems:

C:\Users\Fregior>echo %JAVA_HOME%

C:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.8.0_05

C:\Users\Fregior>java -version

and JAVA_HOME C:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.8.0_05

I can't figure it out

[Simone Manduchi]

P.S.: This is the error

Hi Rahul,

I would like to know if you could help me develop a functionality on phonegap application. Please send me an email sadi...@gmail.com or skype sadiqsadiq199.

We can arrange everything later.

Regards Sadiq

[Simone Manduchi]

Thanks. It worked.

Last question (I hope)

I edited OSC -> WWW -> Index.html from eclipse
I've changed <p class="event received">Device is Ready</p> in <p class="event received">Mytext</p>

after this I've saved the file and I've exported the apk.

Why (if I install the apk on my device) is it shown "Device is Ready"?

Thanks again.

You are very kind.

Are you using a Eclipse IDE or building from the command line?

[Simone Manduchi]

I'm using Eclipse

[rahul]

The www folder in the root of your project is used when you are using the CLI, so when you are using the IDEs, in this case,you have to modify the files present in platforms\android\assets\www directory. But note this, whenever you run the build or prepare command, the contents of www folder inside the assets folder gets overwritten by the contents of www folder present in the root of your project.

[Simone Manduchi]

Mmmh... Could you repeat? I've not understood at all

1) If I edit the index.html file in OSC->www given that I have the Auto Build shouldn't I export the updated apk?

2) I've edited the file in platforms\android\assets\www but when I try to export the apk I receive the following error: conversion to dalvik format failed error 1

I run Eclipse, I import the OSC project... after this what should I do?

[Mobile Development]

If you are building the app from IDE, then you have to modify the www folder present inside the platforms/android/assets directory. 

Just clean your projects and the dalvik format error will be gone. Also if your testing the app, you can also the run the project as Android application, instead of exporting the APK.

The file present in the root www folder is used only when your building and running the app from the phonegap command line.

Just remember if you build your project using the phonegap command line utility instead of IDE. The content of www directory present in the platforms\android\asssets\ folder will be overwritten by the content of root www directory.

<<If you are building the app from IDE, then you have to modify the www folder present inside the platforms/android/assets directory. >>

Ok, so I'll work on that directory.

<<Just clean your projects and the dalvik format error will be gone. Also if your testing the app, you can also the run the project as Android application, instead of exporting the APK.>>

I have cleaned it but I'm still having the dalvik problem (should I disable the auto building?)

Moreover if I run the simulator (http://www.hosting.universalsite.org/image-dispo-22B6_5357FD59.png) I do not have my app... why?
