Ionic-cli: Error: ENOENT: no such file or directory, open platforms/android/app/build/outputs/apk/debug/app-debug.apk

Created on 1 Jun 2019 · 19Comments · Source: ionic-team/ionic-cli

Description:

When i try to use the classic way to launch an ionic app into a device (ionic cordova run android --device) builds perfectly but native-run fails locating the app source file. The built app is in

platforms/android/build/outputs/apk/android-debug.apk

but the native-run goes to

platforms\android\app\build\outputs\apk\debug\app-debug.apk

looking for a folder called app inside android that does not exist

Steps to Reproduce:

Run ionic cordova run android --device

Output:

BUILD SUCCESSFUL

Total time: 18.968 secs
Built the following apk(s):
        D:/Projects/lvlLite-ionic4/platforms/android/build/outputs/apk/android-debug.apk
> native-run.cmd android --app platforms\android\app\build\outputs\apk\debug\app-debug.apk
No hardare devices found, attempting emulator...
Selected emulator PM1LHMA7C2202496
Error: ENOENT: no such file or directory, open 'D:\Projects\lvlLite-ionic4\platforms\android\app\build\outputs\apk\debug\app-debug.apk'
[ERROR] An error occurred while running subprocess native-run.

        native-run.cmd android --app platforms\android\app\build\outputs\apk\debug\app-d... exited with exit code 1.

        Re-running this command with the --verbose flag may provide more information.

My ionic info:

@alvarofelipe12 If you need to use cordova-android 6, you should use the --no-native-run flag for now.

@vagnersabadi Can you post log output? If you're getting this issue with cordova-android 7, then something is wrong.

I think I found a solution, actually until 05/29/2019 I was using version 4.12.0 after this day my CLI was updated to version 5.0.0 and second this documentation has undergone many changes.If anyone has this problem read the release notes (which I did not do) to see if there is any change

@pimol cordova-android 8 works for me. What command are you running? Can you confirm the location of the .apk file?

Sorry, I read only now. Solved with ionic 5.03

pimol on 2 Jul 2019

It sounds like all the issues here are resolved, so I'm closing this. Let me know if there are other issues.

This keeps happening even in new cli's

@alvarofelipe12 I explained what you need to do to continue using cordova-android 6: https://github.com/ionic-team/ionic-cli/issues/4002#issuecomment-500536615

I had the same problem, elra a permission problem from the Gradle bin folder. I solved it by giving it permission to execute the folder bin.

NeftaliYagua on 15 Sep 2019

How do you change your permissions? I tried ionic cordova run android --no-native-run but it gives me back a blank screen...

IvoNikolov on 27 Nov 2019

Try this,
first run : ionic cordova build android --release
then : ionic cordova run --device

Note : In some case, check your internet connection before executing above command

I had this issue as well

native-run] Error: ENOENT: no such file or directory, open 'platforms/android/app/build/outputs/apk/debug/app-debug.apk'
[ERROR] An error occurred while running subprocess native-run.

        native-run android --app platforms/android/app/build/outputs/apk/debug/app-debug... exited with exit code 1.

but my issue was connected with cordova building several apk's for each architecture,
with ...-debug.apk in each of those folders.

Built the following apk(s): 
        ..../platforms/android/app/build/outputs/apk/arm64/debug/app-arm64-debug.apk
        ..../platforms/android/app/build/outputs/apk/armeabi/debug/app-armeabi-debug.apk
        ..../platforms/android/app/build/outputs/apk/armv7/debug/app-armv7-debug.apk
        ..../platforms/android/app/build/outputs/apk/x86/debug/app-x86-debug.apk
        ..../platforms/android/app/build/outputs/apk/x86_64/debug/app-x86_64-debug.apk

apparently, native-run was looking for a non-existent folder platforms/android/app/build/outputs/apk/debug

here guys on SO explained that the issue is connected to cordova-plugin-crosswalk-webview and to avoid multiple apks - you should run
