Cordova 1.9.0 "ERROR: Start page at 'www/index.html' not found" even after folder is a reference

[Colby Meier]

So I updated my working application from a very old version of Phonegap to Cordova 1.9.0. When I drag the file into the project explorer it shows up blue (referenced as it should be) but when I run the app I get the "ERROR: Start page at 'www/index.html' not found" error. Google and IRC chats have only brought me to the solution of 'adding it as a reference'.

My issue is that it IS referenced, but still not running the file. I've been finicking with this for days now, and still have made no progress. So if anyone can help me figure this out, I would be eternally indebted to you.

Take a screenshot of your Project Navigator, with the blue "www" expanded.

Here is the requested screenshot.

That looks sound. Examine your build product -- find the .app and right click "Show Package Contents", is the "www" folder in there?

[Colby Meier]

Yes, the www folder is located in my PocketHealth.app

Did you run it in the Simulator? If you can, reset the simulator (iOS
Simulator -> Reset Contents and Settings...). Do a project "clean"
then deploy to Simulator.

Same error. I get this error running on Simulator (ipad and iphone) as well as running on the actual devices themselves.

I cleaned and build/ran after clearing contents and settings, and immediately get the same error.

/Looks/ right...

Can you take a look at the package generated to see if the index.html file is being copied over? If using a real device, I like to use iPhone Explorer to verify that things are really there (or not). If using the simulator, you should be able to navigate to the simulator directory (I don't remember offhand; google it) and get into the package to verify if it is there.

If it is there and the error is still occurring..., ouch? Might have to look at AppDelegate.m and MainViewController.m to see what's going on.

If it isn't there, then clean the project and try to rebuild. If it still isn't there, then maybe it would be a good idea to create a new project and see if that works?

I did as requested, the index.html file IS located on the device (being copied over).  I looked in AppDelegate.m and ManViewController.m and the expected wwwFolder and startPage lines are still there and intact.

Time for desperate measures --- if you create a new project, does it work?
