Answer 1

cordova platform update android

will fix the error. Cordova is always one behind the android version eg if we have android API 24 then we have cordova 5.x.x supporting upto API 23. Hence any project is build using API 24(eg. using Android Studio) will show this error.

For better understanding I have posted error that I got:

Error: cmd: Command failed with exit code 1 Error output: FAILURE: Build failed with an exception.

• What went wrong: A problem occurred configuring root project 'android'.

  Could not resolve all dependencies for configuration ':_debugApk'. A problem occurred configuring project ':CordovaLib'. Could not resolve all dependencies for configuration ':CordovaLib:classpath'. Could not find com.android.tools.build:gradle:2.2.3. Searched in the following locations: https://repo1.maven.org/maven2/com/android/tools/build/gradle/2.2.3/gradle-2.2.3.pom https://repo1.maven.org/maven2/com/android/tools/build/gradle/2.2.3/gradle-2.2.3.jar Required by: android:CordovaLib:unspecified

• Try: Run with --stacktrace option to get the stack trace. Run with --info or --debug option to get more log output.

Answer 2

try running the android tools and installing the items below:

Open the SDK manager.

You will require:
1. "SDK Platform" for android-23
2. "Android SDK Platform-tools (latest)
3. "Android SDK Build-tools" (latest)]
