I alredy updated cordova/quasar/npm/node
cordova -v
9.0.0 (cordova-lib@9.0.1)
quasar -v
2.0.8
npm -v
6.14.7
node -v
v14.8.0

if i try to use the comand “cordova create src-cordova org.cordova.quasar.app App_pelagem_gatos” it works

but the quasar build -m cordova -T android keep showing the same error.

someone have the same problem on latest versions?

@tymons

the weird thing is that quasar info reports Global packages cordova - Not installed (that’s the global cordova cli not the lib). But you can run cordova just fine.

You could try to remove cordova globally and reinstall. ( Quasar info should report that cordova is installed)
Try node 12.x lts
again: for windows use npm only for global packages and yarn for project packages.

it works when i reinstall yarn.
that makes no sense.
i need to reinstall yarn every time ia want to use cordova (which i instaled with npm -g)
some one knows how quasar detect installations?

metalsadman

@tymons it’s just the nature of the beast working with npm sometimes, I personally don’t get deps problem since I’m mostly up to date in versions, if it does happen just do common trouble shooting, deleting node_module folder, lock files, and run yarn. Use npm for globals, and yarn for local deps.
