Error: Plugin "org.apache.cordova.inappbrowser" failed to install.

Bobby_T_ — Fri, 29 Jan 2016 20:28:00 GMT

I try to do an Intel XDK build - build failed for this reason "Error: Plugin "org.apache.cordova.inappbrowser" failed to install." I use C2 and Construct 2 native plugin "browser". I build for iOS.

About 4-7 days ago, everything works just fine. Same C2 project, same Intel XDK project, same plugins. What has changed? I can't update my app to the App Store..

[edit] used Intel XDK Early Access 2866 and also testing on Intel XDK 2893. 4-7 days ago, all worked very well! [edit]

Same problem here!

There have been some problems

There have been some problems with the NPM registry (which is where that plugin is pulled from) that have been interfering with our build system. Are you still experiencing build problems?

If you continue to experience problems, you can remove it and re-add it as a github plugin using the third-party plugin option. Here's an example of how to add it that way, check the repo for specific release tags (https://github.com/apache/cordova-plugin-inappbrowser/releases):

Mark_v_2 — Sat, 30 Jan 2016 17:12:47 GMT

What worked for me was adding this plugin as mentioned, but I also had to edit the file intelxdk.config.additions.xml.

I removed the line with órg.apache.cordova.inappbrowser. And then it worked!

@Mark v.

After removing 'órg.apache.cordova.inappbrowser', is your app working normal?

@Mark v.

I can confirm that deleting this line worked for me as well. Thanks!

@Mark v.

But I found my app isn't working properly. Is there any other way to fix the issue?

My app seems to work

My app seems to work perfectly. Sorry, I don't know any other solution.

It is very important that you

PaulF_IntelCorp — Fri, 05 Feb 2016 16:54:12 GMT

It is very important that you DO NOT use the intelxdk.config.additions.xml file for adding plugins. If you have imported a Construct2 application you may be encountering this problem. You need to add your plugins using the Plugin Management tool on the Projects tab. Using the additions file worked with our old build systems, but that procedure no longer works, and importing plugins using this technique will no longer work.

Is it the InAppBrowser plugin

Anusha_M_Intel1 — Sat, 06 Feb 2016 01:36:36 GMT

Is it the InAppBrowser plugin that is failing for everyone?

Does anyone have a build log file they can upload? If using the plugin manager and removing from the additions file doesn't work for you, could you private message me your project?

Hi,

Hi,

I can confirm that I am having the same problem with the in app browser, I also followed the above steps but no such luck!

Anyone else got any suggestions?

Thanks

For anyone who comes across

For anyone who comes across this and is still having a problem, I was referencing old documentation that no longer works. The new way to install this plugin is described here: http://cordova.apache.org/docs/en/6.x/reference/cordova-plugin-inappbrowser/index.html#page-toc-source

Quick Reference:

cordova plugin add cordova-plugin-inappbrowser
