I am able to pair from visual studio but when I try to set ios configuration from Tools for apache cordova I receive the following error response on the apple machine:

This worked for me:

When I ran remotebuild -test, it complained that no server modules were selected, and went on to default configuration "modules" to taco-remote

In your initial post you were using the vcremote package to launch the remote build, which is only for use with Visual C++ projects. It looks like you fixed it by using the remotebuild package (npm install -g remotebuild), which is the one you want to use for Cordova projects. It may be a bit confusing since both tools use some shared source behind the scenes.

Not sure why but running the following command appeared to resolve this issue: 

johnbowyer$ remotebuild -test
