"file" argument must be a non-empty string

[rDuckDev]

Running corber start --platform=android results in two lines stating '"file" argument must be a non-empty string'.

Log is on a different machine, but snippets include:

-- broccoliBuilderErrorStack
...
-- stack: typeError: "file" argument must be a non-empty string
at normalizeSpawnArguments (child_process.js:389:11)
...

Running ember serve works fine.

Running corber serve says to run corber plugin add cordova-plugin-whitelist (also printed twice, like the earlier message). I've done that three times (CLI reports successful install), but message does not go away.

Any help is appreciated.

regarding the corber serve issue, when that command is run without params it will attempt to serve the ios version of your build. Given you are on Windows and not Mac, thats unlikely to work?

corber serve --platform=android works like a charm when navigating to http://localhost:4200 in my browser, thanks! That does break Run 'app' in Android Studio, though.

Same issue here. I can't get it running on my emulator

@JoepHeijnen, try the following:

# make sure Android Studio is open to the android project inside your corber project -
# it handles Gradle builds, I believe
corber serve --platform=android

# make sure you have your AVD running,
# then in a second terminal window
corber run proxy android

It doesn't solve the actual issue, but it is a suitable workaround in the meantime.
