[ERROR] Cordova encountered an error.
        You may get more insight by running the Cordova command above directly.

[ERROR] An error occurred while running cordova run android (exit code 1).

what I already tried to do and it not helps: 1. removed android studio and install again. 2. run these commands

cordova platform rm android
cordova platform add android
npm cache clear

3. update the sdk in android studio

nothing really helps to solve this issue.

Solution 1

I was facing the same issue please run the below command it should work fine.

ionic cordova run android --livereload

Solution 2

For me this solved the problem:

ionic cordova platform rm android 
ionic cordova platform add android 

Solution 3

that's how I solve this issue.

1. download gradle latest version bin file this link link to download gradle

2. extract the winzip file into java folder (e.g C:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.8.0_101\gradle-3.5)

3. go to my computer right click -> properties.
4. then go to advanced system setting in left side menu.
5. advances -> environment Variables then select Path.
6. add new environment variable called %GRADLE_HOME%/bin

Solution 4

add the location of Android Studio's Gradle (e.g, /usr/local/android-studio/gradle/gradle-3.2/bin for linux) to your PATH environment variable

Solution 5

I also faced the same issue and now resolved the issue as below steps

1. Downloaded the gradle zip version and extracted to path user\<username>\android-sdk\gradle

2. the same path configured in environment variable both like GRADLE_HOME and path
