android - Unable to build Cordova project in Visual Studio

Question

I'm using Visual Studio 2013 and the Cordova CTP 1.1. When I try to build the project, I get the following cryptic error (line breaks added for readability):

Error 22 
The command ""C:UsersNathanAppDataRoaming
pm
ode_modulesvs-mdavs-cli"
prepare --platform Android --configuration Debug
--projectDir . --projectName "servermon"" exited with code 8.
C:UsersNathanAppDataRoaming
pm
ode_modulesvs-mda-targetsMicrosoft.MDA.targets 115 5 servermon

I've tried the solutions from this question as well as this question, and this doesn't appear to solve the issue. My system path appears to have everything relevant in it:

C:Program FilesJavajdk1.7.0_60in
C:UsersNathanAppDataLocalAndroidandroid-sdkools

C:Program Files (x86)Microsoft SDKsTypeScript1.0 

I've also opened up the SDK manager and made sure to get the latest (Rev 19) build tools. The system has been restarted more than once and I'm still not able to build. Does anyone have any ideas on how to fix this build issue?

Edit: Here is a screenshot of my SDK Manager

Edit2: Here is the build output

Answer 1

It seems the Android template that was downloaded by Cordova is "corrupted".

To fix this: Try deleting the cached android platform in your user directory:

C:users<username>.cordovaandroid*

Then, clean and build the Solution in Visual Studio. Or to be really sure, delete the ‘bld’ directory inside the project folder.

This should force Cordova to re-download the Android template and fix the issue.
