[tarsomatos]

Error on line 52.20 from file after_prepare.js
The folder path to compile looks like it has changed in Cordova-android 7.0 for
'app \ src \ main \ res \ values' error occurred while generating PLATFORM.ANDROID.stringsXml

Same problem!

For now, in my case, I decided to adjust the version of Android to 6.3.0

ionic cordova platform add [email protected]

This version did not have this problem.

The downgrade also works for me.

Changing this line
stringsXml: ANDROID_DIR + '/res/values/strings.xml'
to
stringsXml: ANDROID_DIR + '/app/src/main/res/values/strings.xml'

will fix the issue. There should be a check on the cordova android version so the path can be set accordingly as indeed the folder structure is changed as of 7.0.0:

@m6246 where to change
exact file path?

Changing this line
stringsXml: ANDROID_DIR + '/res/values/strings.xml'
to
stringsXml: ANDROID_DIR + '/app/src/main/res/values/strings.xml'
