"net::ERR_CACHE_MISS" when loading an external URL in Cordova

Question

I am getting crazy about this. I have a pretty basic Cordova (3.5.0) app and want to load an external URL. The only thing I am doing is loading jQuery (locally) and executing this on button click:

$.ajax({
  dataType:'html',
  url:'http://www.google.com',
  success:function(data) {
    $('#ajax').html($(data).children());   
  }
});

Everytime on loading my app fires this error:

GET http://www.google.com/ net::ERR_CACHE_MISS    jquery.min.js:4
send                                              jquery.min.js:4
m.extend.ajax                                     jquery.min.js:4
(anonymous function)                              index.html:68
m.event.dispatch                                  jquery.min.js:3
r.handle                                          jquery.min.js:3

All permissions are properly set in the AndroidManifest.xml

<uses-permission android:name="android.permissions.INTERNET" />
<uses-permission android:name="android.permissions.NETWORK_ACCESS" />
<uses-permission android:name="android.permissions.ACCESS_NETWORK_STATE" />

Does anyone of you had a similar issue? What does net::ERR_CACHE_MISS means?

Solution 1

Oh damn... sometimes you just need to step back... Beginner's mistake: it is android.permission. and not android.permissions. Resolved!

Solution 2

All i had to do was:

cordova platform remove android
cordova platform add android

and the "net::ERR_CACHE_MISS" error disappeared. I have no idea what the reason was.

Solution 3

The used syntax is wrong.

Your used:

<uses-permission android:name="android.permissions.INTERNET" />
<uses-permission android:name="android.permissions.NETWORK_ACCESS" />
<uses-permission android:name="android.permissions.ACCESS_NETWORK_STATE" />

Correct:

<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.INTERNET" />
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.NETWORK_ACCESS" />
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.ACCESS_NETWORK_STATE" />

Name "android.permission" is singular.

net::ERR_CACHE_MISS is not a bad error, it simply means the page loaded has not been cached, if you go to a cached page the error should not show up. Most pages now will show this error, and while annoying it shouldn't do any damage to your application.

solved by adding internet permission in manifesto file

<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.INTERNET" />

You also need to make sure the android namespace is declared in the config.xml file: xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"

This solution worked for me. In my case, the initial problem was caused by removing a cordova plugin.

I think you meant Android manifest, but you were absolutely correct in my case.
