Description
I've searched for solutions to this problem, and found several reports of it, but no solutions. Based on my many attempts to get something to work (I've tried phonegap, ionic, and just plain cordova), I started suspecting that there's a bug in the cordova android platform. All my build attempts have been halted at this error message:
Error: Cannot read property 'length' of undefined
Replicating this issue with phonegap:
I'm starting with phonegap because this is how I first encountered the error, and it seems to give me the most useful information with regard to where the error is happening.
$ npm install -g phonegap

"<preference name="AndroidPersistentFileLocation" value="Compatibility" />"
to config.xml in order for the application to find previously stored files.

Note that the error now becomes "Error: TypeError: Cannot read property 'length' of undefined" instead of "Error: Error". The only difference is which version of the cordova android platform I use.
Replicating with Cordova:
I'm including this to demonstrate that the problem is not in phonegap, but seems to be in the cordova android platform.
