Installed ubuntu using the resources : - https://developer.ubuntu.com/en/apps/html-5/guides/cordova-guide/ - https://developer.ubuntu.com/en/apps/html-5/guides/cordova-guide/

everything command works until I get to the run command: - cordova run ubuntu A white window appears and with the title "cordova-ubuntu" that soon just gets stuck; like an ubuntu program -

How do I get the application to run as it should

Thank you

I had the same problem:

"cordova run ubuntu" produces incomplete application

It turned out to be a permissions problem. I fixed it by repeatedly running

cordova build ubuntu

without sudo, and then, whenever there was a permissions error, I gave my non-root user access to the relevant file or folder, e.g.

sudo chown -R username /home/username/.cordova/lib/npm_cache/cordova-android/4.1.1/package/.npmignore

After doing this several times, the build command eventually executed without errors, and then 

cordova run ubuntu

was successful.
