Which means you probably have an old Cordova version and should upgrade to 7.0.1 @Pichonic Possible?
No problem, glad the issue is resolved.

Try this
ionic cordova platform save
It works for meā¦
I also encountered this problem today and I fixed it by editing my platforms.json under your platforms folder.
{
"android": "6.2.3"
}
I also have been experiencing this issue.
The iOS platform is installed:
cordova platform ls
ā Running command - done!
Installed platforms:
android 6.2.3
ios 4.4.0
Available platforms:
blackberry10 ~3.8.0 (deprecated)
browser ~4.1.0
osx ~4.0.1
webos ~3.7.0
If I run (with ionic prefix):
ionic cordova prepare
[WARN] No Cordova platforms listed in config.xml. Nothing to prepare.
You can save your installed platforms to config.xml with the ionic cordova platform save command.
However if I run it without the ionic prefix it works.
If I follow the instructions about saving the platform I get:
ionic cordova prepare
[WARN] No Cordova platforms listed in config.xml. Nothing to prepare.
You can save your installed platforms to config.xml with the ionic cordova platform save command.
Bens-MacBook-Pro-4:kpmg-events-mobile ben$ ionic cordova platform save
> cordova platform save
ā Running command - done!
ā¦ and then run prepare again it still says there is no platform (when using the ionic prefix):
ionic cordova prepare
[WARN] No Cordova platforms listed in config.xml. Nothing to prepare.
You can save your installed platforms to config.xml with the ionic cordova platform save command.
ā¦ again, without the ionic prefix it all works:
Here are the versions I am running:
@ionic/cli-utils : 1.9.2
ionic (Ionic CLI) : 3.9.2
global packages:
Cordova CLI : 7.0.1
Gulp CLI : CLI version 3.9.1 Local version 3.9.1
local packages:
Cordova Platforms : android 6.2.3 ios 4.4.0
Ionic Framework : ionic1 1.2.4
System:
Android SDK Tools : 26.0.2
ios-deploy : 1.9.1
Node : v6.11.1
npm : 3.10.10
OS : macOS Sierra
Xcode : Xcode 8.3.3 Build version 8E3004b
I have all the same problems with ionic upload:
ionic upload --deploy=production --note="500.0.7"
> ionic cordova prepare
[WARN] No Cordova platforms listed in config.xml. Nothing to prepare.
You can save your installed platforms to config.xml with the ionic cordova platform save command.
My config looks good as far as I can tell:

I have removed and added the platform countless times. No avail.
NOTE: My platforms.json file in the platform folder is empty. This is likely the cause of the issue. It isnāt being updated.

I have fixed the issueā¦
I realised the file platforms/platforms.json was empty. I edited it to:
{
"ios": "4.4.0",
"android": "6.2.3"
}
Then ran:
$ ionic cordova platform save
After that it all workedā¦

I concur this fixed my issue alsoā¦ I had to run:
$ ionic cordova platform save
after editing the platform.json before it all started to work.
i try to do that its work fin for me
sudo npm update -g cordova
sudo npm update -g ionic
rm -rf plugins/ platforms/
ionic platform add ios
ionic run ios
place this command in config.xml It worked for me
<engine name = ""android spec = ā^8.0.0ā/>

This happened me when I changed my bundle ID.
- changed bundle ID
- Removed and re added platforms
- ionic cordova platform save
And I got that error, not cordova platforms listed in config.xml.
I noticed from looking back at changes in Github that like @benedge, platforms was now empty.
Also,
<engine name="android" spec="^7.1.4" />
<engine name="ios" spec="4.5.5" />
Had been removed from config.xml.
So, I just copy and pasted them back in from the changes in the Github history, ran ionic cordova platform save and all is well again. I can build APKās.
Well, relatively well. I canāt use ionic cordova run android --livereload anymore as I get the same error as this guy: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/57800300/run-android-livereload-err-invalid-response
This error doesnāt appear when I build it out and run the apk on my phone though
