How to get Android app running

Hi,
I will get my App running for the first time in ionic with capacitor. It looks to my like a basic task but Im not familiar with the error is the build process. My projekt is running fine in the browser and I managed to get the iOS app running.

To get the Android App running i tried:

ionic build --prod
ionic cap add android
ionic cap open android

Now, Android Studio starts and comes up with these messages:

Screenshot 2022-11-23 170730

I don’t really knwo what gradle does, so I don’t know if I should update it or not.

Next thing is to click on the green play button to run the app in the simulator. It starts up but all I see is a plain dark blue screen (this is the corrct background color of my app). At the same time I take a look at the “Run”-Tab in Android Studio. It puts out many lines and some of them are red (errors). Those are:

E/iemerkhilfe.app: Invalid ID 0x00000000.
E/Capacitor: Unable to read file at path public/plugins
E/Capacitor/Console: File: http://localhost/main.js - Line 1 - Msg: ERROR [object Object]

I googled all that and couldn’t figure out what to do.

I’d be very thankful for you help
Greetings :slight_smile:


Update
I changed the appId in capacitor.config.json and all my errors in Android Studio temporarily disappeard.

My Problem is now at the next level. The run prompt in Android Studio temporarily shows with no further errors (*):

I still got just the dark blue screen (my background color) but it mus be some runtime problem now. I can open my chrome browser at

chrome://inspect/#devices

and find my simulation device there to be inspected:

As you can see there is an error while trying to get some resources:

ERR_CLEARTEXT_NOT_PERMITTED

(*)
in any later tries the error came back looks like this:
