Error when build the phonegap android empty project?

I am trying to create a simple project in phonegap with association of wikitude.

This is the tutorial which I followed - wikitude + phonegap tutorial

And I am using ubuntu 12.04 these are the only steps which I followed,

  1. $ npm install -g phonegap - Adding phonegap
  2. npm install plugman - Adding plugman
  3. sudo npm install -g cordova - installing codova

Then following steps to create app,

  1. $ phonegap create MyAugmented - create app
  2. $ phonegap build android - build in android

Aditionally I have installed android sdk using apt-get.

But when I build this app using above build command it gives an error,

Most probable reason is you don't have latest android SDK. So update your android SDK and it should work fine.

You can reference this to see way of finding error.

Cordova has a script to check if all dependencies are present. Is is called when you run cordova platform add android but unfortunatly it's output is not displayed when it fails.

You can try to run it manually, it should be $home/.cordova/lib/android/cordova/3.3.0/bin/check_reqs

The normal output when everything's fine is "Looks like your environment fully supports cordova-android development!", oterwise it should display a clear message about what's missing.

Maybe your issue is that you havent't installed SDK platform for API 19 in android sdk manager (cordova 3.3 uses target sdk 19).

UPDATE: Android SDKs are updated using SDK Manager. You can see how to use SDK from here. http://developer.android.com/tools/help/sdk-manager.html
