Add platform android error

ionic-v1
1

I can’t add platform android. I’ve been trying to fix this all day but to no avail (uninstalled and reinstalled node, npm, deleted all npm folders, tried to fix the PATH…). Using node 0.12.5, npm 2.11.2, cordova 5.1.1, ionic 1.5.5 on Windows 7.

$ ionic platform add android
Updated the hooks directory to have execute permissions
Adding android project…
Error: cmd: Command failed with exit code ENOENT

at Process.ChildProcess._handle.onexit (child_process.js:1072:12)
at child_process.js:1144:20
at process._tickCallback (node.js:355:11)

I’ll appreciate any advice, thanks.

Running “cordova -d platform add android” yields a little bit more info. Is some file missing? I can’t figure it out:

$ cordova -d platform add android

It as a PATH problem. Somehow, “C:\Windows\System32” wasn’t in the path.

I have the same problem with you.

How can I solve this problem?

In my case I just needed to add “C:\Windows\System32” to my windows path.

Add this
%SystemRoot%\system32; %SystemRoot%; %SystemRoot%\System32\Wbem;

in your PATH.

Problem will resolved. It works for my.
