IONIC build error after installing plugin

Alberthoekstra · June 13, 2018, 11:15am

Hi,

My build was working before executing these scripts in my Ionic 3 project.

ionic cordova plugin add cordova-plugin-firebase
npm install --save @ionic-native/firebase

I’ve been here and tried the suggested solution already but didn’t work.

Have you even tried ; Suggestion: add ‘tools:replace=“android:value”’ to element at AndroidManifest.xml:26:9-28:38 to override.

Alberthoekstra · June 13, 2018, 11:29am

That androidmanifest is generated by the build scripts, I can’t manual change that.

Alberthoekstra · June 13, 2018, 11:39am

Okay, so I installed a fresh tabs starter project and installen the firebase plugin and the android platform.
The build was working after then so that means any other plugin that I’ve installed in my project caused the problems.

So I had 4 plugins that are not in the starter project:

cordova-plugin-file-transfer
cordova-plugin-filepath
cordova-plugin-camera
cordova-plugin-file

I removed all plugins and installed 1 by 1 and after every install I ran the android build command.
Happens that the ‘cordova-plugin-filepath’ plugin caused the problems.

So, cordova-plugin-filepath and cordova-plugin-firebase don’t go together!

Lucky me I didnt need the plugin so I removed it.
