Unable to open asset URL: file:///android_asset/www/

I get some error messages in Logcat when running my Android App, which was built using PhoneGap.

E/AndroidProtocolHandler(1475): Unable to open asset URL: file:///android_asset/www/css/mobile2.css
E/AndroidProtocolHandler(1475): Unable to open asset URL: file:///android_asset/www/scripts/custom.js
E/AndroidProtocolHandler(1475): Unable to open asset URL: file:///android_asset/www/scripts/customShare.js

Any ideas on how to fix this?

I tried all options above but the issue still persisted.

Here was the fix that I figured out:

Go to Project -> Properties -> Resource -> Resource Filters and remove the Exclusion filters.

This should rebuild automatically and you'll be fine.

In my case the problem was a underscore as a first letter in a folder name. I had:

file:///android_asset/html/_js

which I renamed to:

file:///android_asset/html/js

That fixed the problem.

I have faced same problem like you and I could not access and play video file from assets or raw file. After trying many more solution getting online, I could not resolve my problem. But,I have solved my problem by storing video file into mobile storage. Like:

<video id="video" autoplay="autoplay" width="640" height="360" controls>
    <source src=“file:///storage/emulated/legacy/Video/test.mp4”  type="video/mp4" />
</video>

Note: “file:///storage/emulated/legacy/Video/test.mp4” information will be changed as per your storage location.

If this error persist after adding permission then check case of file names

as

file names are Case Sensitive in phonegap app

Check the path (where you are trying to access it) to insure that it is correct. You could also check the permissions on the file to insure that you can read/ write to the file. Hope this helps.
