ionic-v1

Hi,

I am newbie on Ionic, and I am follow Getting Started Guide on this page: [Ionic Framework - The Cross-Platform App Development Leader][1]
When I run the follow command:

duly-imac:aaclient eldontc$ ionic run ios

The result is:

Running run task…
Running app on platform ios
Generating config.xml from defaults for platform “ios”
Preparing ios project
Running app on platform “ios” via command “/dados-usr/trabalho/aaclient/aaclient/platforms/ios/cordova/run”

Please download, build and install version 1.0.4 or greater from GitHub - ios-control/ios-deploy: Install and debug iPhone apps from the command line, without using Xcode into your path. Or ‘npm install -g ios-deploy’ using node.js: http://nodejs.org/

Ok. The I run the command:

duly-imac:aaclient eldontc$ sudo npm install -f ios-deploy

rm -rf *.app demo ios-deploy

Just at first glance looks like you ran sudo npm install -f ios-deploy not sudo npm install -g ios-deploy

Tthe -g flag is for global :slight_smile: which is why it doesn’t know that ios-deploy is installed.

@tim Thanks for your response Tim.

I did run the command that you indicate but not works for me. See:

You ran sudo npm install -f ios-deploy again…

You need to run sudo npm install -g ios-deploy, notice the -g NOT -f.

Ok, my mistake man, I don’t believe that, sorry.

It works now!

I have just installed note.js on windows 8

i’ve got the same issue that @eldontc has, but also after running sudo npm install -g ios-deploy i get the same error. Any idea why?

Here’s what i run (emulate) and the result:

myUser appName$ ionic emulate ios

NOTE: i have successfully installed ios-sim with npm install -g ios-sim (although it had been previously installed via homebrew so i had to run brew uninstall ios-sim before reinstalling it)

try to run

cordova plugin add org.apache.cordova.statusbar

manually. And then build and emulate the project.

10

@Ciraxis thanks for your reply.

Plugin “org.apache.cordova.statusbar” already installed, 'sall good.

…but if i run ionic build ios or ionic emulate io : same result (error mentioned above).

11

Have you removed the plugin and add it again?

Or maybe open the emulator and then run ionic emulate.

12

@Ciraxis thanks for your reply.
Yes and yes…same result.

13

Have you used the latest ionic cli?

On Android emulator it works?

maybe that issue could help you

14

@Ciraxis thanks for your interest in my issue.

To answer your questions:
Yes, i’m using the latest ionic cli.
Yes, Android works fine.

I’ve read the issue you posted and tried running cordova platform update ios

Result:

ios updated to 3.3.0
