I have been trying to run the Cordova Maps Sample project on Netbeans. I was following the instructions given on the youtube video. When I try to run the project it gives me an error

The Logcat Error:

Error: CordovaError: The plugin 'cordova-plugin-compat' is required by (cordova-plugin-contacts, cordova-plugin-geolocation), skipping uninstallation.

I tried running the following command cordova plugin add cordova-plugin-compat ,but, it gives me a message saying Plugin "cordova-plugin-compat" already installed on android.

Can somebody advise me as to where am I going wrong?

Thanks

Sachin

Try removing the plugin and adding it again.

cordova plugin remove cordova-plugin-compat

cordova plugin add cordova-plugin-compat

On the Netbeans screen look for "Important Files" folder and inside that should be a "Cordova Plugins" folder.

Right click on the "Cordova Plugins" folder and select "Edit".

Immediately after all the comments (they're lines that start with #) you'll see the list of plugins start. Add a new plugin before all the others that looks like:

cordova-plugin-compat=https://git-wip-us.apache.org/repos/asf/cordova-plugin-compat.git

Rebuild the application and it should be fixed.

  • Thanks @kevin-lynn I tried this and it compiled the application without any problem. Unfortunately, when I load the application on an android, it gives me an error **"[ERROR] Error initializing Cordova: Class not found"**. Can you advise me on this problem?.
