8     309174   error    ERROR CONTEXT:

From the error output, it seems to be an issue with Angular re-assigning the new data to the view.

The this.groups property contains a number of objects, which are iterated in the HTML template by:

<ion-item-group *ngFor="#group of groups">

On initialisation it works once, then upon re-assignment it fails. Small extract of code:

constructor(platform, app, nav, db, user) {
    this.platform = platform;
    this.app = app;
    this.nav = nav;
    this.db = db;
    this.groups = [];

    this.updateSchedule();
  }

updateSchedule() {

    //When platform ready
    this.platform.ready().then(() => {

      //If not data is already loaded
      if (!(this.groups.length > 0)) {

        //Present the component
          this.scheduleController.fetchSchedule().then(data => {
            this.groups = data;
            this.shownSessions = data.length;
        });
      }
    });
  }

I see that this has been raised many times for Ionic 1:

github.com/angular/angular.js

(iOS 8 GM iPhone5C) TypeError: Attempted to assign to readonly property

type: bug needs: more info browser: iOS Lots of comments

I am using on iOS 8 GM(iPhone5C). With this device, I am getting this error in t…his line(https://github.com/angular/angular.js/blob/master/src/ng/rootScope.js#L216) But on iOS 8 GM(iPhone5S) and iOS 7.x (iPhone5C, iPhone5S), this error does not occur. To resolve this error, I rewrote the code as follows: ``` javascript $new: function(isolate) { var child; if (isolate) { child = new Scope(); child.$root = this.$root; // ensure that there is just one async queue per $rootScope and its children child.$$asyncQueue = this.$$asyncQueue; child.$$postDigestQueue = this.$$postDigestQueue; } else { // Only create a child scope class if somebody asks for one, // but cache it to allow the VM to optimize lookups. if (!this.$$ChildScope) { this.$$ChildScope = function ChildScope() { this['$$watchers'] = this['$$nextSibling'] = this['$$childHead'] = this['$$childTail'] = null; this['$$listeners'] = {}; this['$$listenerCount'] = {}; this['$id'] = nextUid(); this['$$ChildScope'] = null; }; this.$$ChildScope.prototype = this; } child = new this.$$ChildScope(); } child['this'] = child; child['$parent'] = this; child['$$prevSibling'] = this.$$childTail; if (this.$$childHead) { this.$$childTail.$$nextSibling = child; this.$$childTail = child; } else { this.$$childHead = this.$$childTail = child; } return child; }, ``` The situation has improved, but I do not understand the reason...

and recently for Ionic 2:

The solutions for Ionic 1 are a bit vague, and don’t seem to apply or map to Angular 2 implementations. I would very much appreciate any suggestions with this, as it is currently breaking our production build on iOS, which are the majority of our user base.

Thanks!

Just to cover all bases I wanted to ensure I was running latest CLIs etc.
Environment at time of post:

Cordova CLI: 6.0.0
Ionic Framework Version: 2.0.0-beta.6
Ionic CLI Version: 2.0.0-beta.25
Ionic App Lib Version: 2.0.0-beta.15
ios-deploy version: 1.8.5
ios-sim version: 5.0.8
OS: Mac OS X El Capitan
Node Version: v5.11.0
Xcode version: Xcode 7.3.1 Build version 7D1014

Strangely enough I seemed to have fixed the issue by running a number of updates.
I’m not sure which fixed the issue, but I did the following.

Updated Cordova to latest version:
sudo npm install -g cordova

Updated Ionic builds:
npm install -g ionic@beta

Remove ios and android platforms
ionic platform remove ios
ionic platform remove android

Add in iOS and Android platforms
ionic platform add ios
ionic platform add android

Works!

pjhartin · May 13, 2016, 3:11am

I’m back. Seems to not be working anymore, despite not changing any code, dependencies etc. I can’t figure it out. It seems to only happen on the first launch of the app.

App presents the data and if refreshed again, says that cannot assign to a readonly this.groups.

Hi, did you manage to resolve this issue? I am also getting this error

divyekhanna · June 15, 2016, 7:24pm

Same error here … only on iOS

pjhartin · June 15, 2016, 9:48pm

@ionicchaser & @divyekhanna I cannot recall if I resolved this or not. I know that after this post I made a number of changes to the app, along with updating to the latest dependencies etc which looked like this:

{
  "name": "TDCBNE16",
  "description": "The Design Conference Brisbane 2016 Hybrid App",
  "dependencies": {
    "@angular/common": "^2.0.0-rc.1",

    "de.appplant.cordova.plugin.local-notification"
  ],
  "cordovaPlatforms": [
    "ios",
    "android"
  ]
}

Sorry I can’t be of more help.

I also had the same error after I updating to ionic2, angular, cordova cli, and ionic2 cli. I don’t know which one or why cause the problem.

Here is my ionic info:

Cordova CLI: 6.3.1
Gulp version: CLI version 3.8.11
Gulp local: Local version 3.9.1
Ionic Framework Version: 2.0.0-beta.9-201606271842
Ionic CLI Version: 2.0.0-beta.25
Ionic App Lib Version: 2.0.0-beta.15

Node Version: v5.12.0

{
“dependencies”: {
"@angular/common": “^2.0.0-rc.4”,
"@angular/compiler": “^2.0.0-rc.4”,
"@angular/core": “^2.0.0-rc.4”,
"@angular/forms": “^0.2.0”,
"@angular/http": “^2.0.0-rc.4”,
"@angular/platform-browser": “^2.0.0-rc.4”,
"@angular/platform-browser-dynamic": “^2.0.0-rc.4”,

“rxjs”: “^5.0.0-beta.6”,
“typescript-collections”: “^1.1.2”,
“zone.js”: “^0.6.12”
},

BTW, ionic2 is extremely slow compared with native app, ionic2 app is even slower than my ionic1 app, even after using wkwebview.

I am in pain after switching to ionic2… I really hope ionic2 team will fix all problems.
