Ionic-cli: bug: For your info: EACCESS on adding platform with 1.0.0 rc2

[perrygovier]

Type: bug

Platform: all

Hi,

I had to chmod -R +x hooks to be able to add platforms (in my case ios).

Just in case anyone experiences similiar problems.

Cordova 4.3.0
IONIC cli 1.3.19

The error was:
Running command: .../hooks/after_prepare/010_add_platform_class.js
Error: spawn EACCES
at exports._errnoException (util.js:746:11)

Installed ionic for first time, version 1.3.19.

Same issue as well, on OS X 10.10 and Ubuntu 14.10.

[perrygovier]

_From @ronyrun on April 5, 2015 13:30_

OK I solved thé issue with : chmod -R +rw 0777 hooks

[perrygovier]

_From @fuzzyflop on April 5, 2015 14:46_

chmod -R 0777 hooks

confirmed working.

_From @grillorafael on April 12, 2015 13:35_

I was having the same issue but I ran chmod +x and everything worked fine

I just installed Ionic, ionic --version outputs 1.3.19, and I get the same issue when I run ionic platform add android. I discovered http://forum.ionicframework.com/t/how-to-fix-this-error-spawn-eacces/20490/5 which is the same issue. I find this very disturbing for someone just getting started. Can we please get this fixed ASAP?

[jbavari]

This should be fixed in next release.

[brodybits]

Thanks !!

[teerasej]

Thank you for update about this issue. now ionic hooks add is my workaround solution.

[iJorl]

I have the same problem on my mac since i updated the cli on version 1.3.19. I just updated the ionic version to 3.1.20 and i still have the same problem ...
Has anyone a suggestion howmto fix this? - i ve already tried the chmod commands mentioned above.

[teerasej]

@iJorl try ionic hooks add before you add a platform. For example:

cd your-project-folder
ionic hooks add
ionic platform add android

it helps me, until the fixed one release.

[MathRobin]

It worked for me when trying ionic hooks add before. Need to add it to the doc

[jbavari]

This should be fixed in 1.3.21. Thanks.

[guilhermevrs]

Hi,

I am still having the issue. I have tried everything and still I am not able to add neither android neither ios as platform. I tried all the chmod mentioned above as well.

The output error:

Here is my ionic info output

[guilhermevrs]

Sorry, I was trying to run the project in a mounted partition, that's why the chmod under hooks was not working.

I changed the partition and it works

[bkowshik]

Getting this error with;

OS: Ubuntu 14.04.3 LTS
Node version: 0.12.7
Cordova version: 5.2.0
Ionic version: 1.6.4

Solved this by adding missing permissions as suggested here;

@KSateesh if you're facing error: "Ionic command not found", it might caused from Ionic CLI's installation is unsuccessful. Please try reinstall it again and check with following command

ionic

if the installation is success. It should show you a list of Ionic command, yes, in nice green. :)

For another suspect, I don't sure, but If you use sudo npm install -g ionic and your computer is behind the proxy, that might cause the problem.

[woraphol-j]

Still facing the issue with the following info:

Cordova CLI: 5.1.1
Gulp version: CLI version 3.9.0
Gulp local: Local version 3.9.0
Ionic Version: 1.2.3
Ionic CLI Version: 2.0.0-alpha.23
Ionic App Lib Version: 2.0.0-alpha.22
OS: Distributor ID: Ubuntu Description: Ubuntu 14.04.3 LTS
Node Version: v0.12.7

Steps to solve the problem:
1) ionic start test sidemenu
2) ionic hooks add
3) ionic platform add android

[alejandropaciotti]

I had the same problem, started to happen when I moved the _android / sdk_ folder to a mounted disk.

To fix it, i moved the android's folder /home/myuser and everything returned to normal.

Of course, I needed to change the environmental variable $JAVA_HOME in .bashrc file.
