PhoneGap build does not work for Windows appx

[brodycj]

According to http://phonegap.com/blog/2016/04/25/windows-10-and-phonegap-cli-6_1-now-on-build/ it should be possible to build Windows 8.1/Windows Phone 8.1/Windows 10 appx on PhoneGap build.

I tried it in https://build.phonegap.com/apps/2158217 based on https://github.com/brodybits/CB-dialog-appx-8.1-phone-test which only uses the cordova-plugin-dialogs plugin but I get a build error. When I click the red Windows build error button I get the following message along with a "notify us" button:

Oh geez. Your build failed. Sorry, but a problem occurred on the build server

I already clicked this "notify us" button for other tests.

I had similar problems when I tried it with Cordova-sqite-legacy-build-support sqlite plugin for Windows Phone 8.1 and Windows 10. I am hopeful that if it works for my dialog test app then it will work with the sqlite plugin.

I noticed that issues building for Windows with the PhoneGap CLI were reported in #520 and #523. I wonder if these are related or not.

I need this to be fixed for a commercial customer. Thanks!

I tried dropping the windows-arch preference and it still does not build.

@brodybits I'm having similar issue as you using CLI-6.1.0.

When I specify
<preference name="windows-appx-target" value="8.1-phone"/>
I get this error:
CertUtil: -importPFX command FAILED: 0x80070002 (WIN32: 2 ERROR_FILE_NOT_FOUND) CertUtil: The system cannot find the file specified.

When I specify
<preference name="windows-appx-target" value="uap"/> or no preference:
I get this error:

[C:\cygwin\tmp\gimlet\2149308\project\CordovaApp.Phone.jsproj]

I'm wondering if you've had a workaround

@brodybits The PGB team just added support for cli-6.3.0 version to PhoneGap Build (https://twitter.com/PhoneGapBuild/status/758412620038713345).

I rebuilt my app and the error has disappeared.
You may want to give it a try.

Just have a different issue now, it's not installing the vibration plugin (cordova-plugin-vibration)

[ef33zy]

@brodybits I think I may spoken too soon.... I hid the vibration and globalization plugins (for other errors) and this is what I'm getting now...

I have the same problem as well

CertUtil: -importPFX command FAILED: 0x80070002 (WIN32: 2 ERROR_FILE_NOT_FOUND)

I believe this is the same error as in #529. So this could be closed too, as there was a fix for it.

[brodycj]

I will check with my customer and report if it is OK or not.

[brodycj]

It works for me if I specify PGB CLI 6.3.0, UWP (Windows 10), and arm CPU arch, sample at: https://github.com/brodybits/Cordova-PGB-dialog-test-Windows10-arm

I was able to scan the QR code with my Microsoft Lumia test mobile device, install the app, run it, and get the expected native alert dialogs.

If I do not specify the CPU arch, scan the QR code, and install the app it fails silently for me, sample at: https://github.com/brodybits/Cordova-PGB-dialog-test-Windows10-anyarch

Another issue: if the app name is too long the Windows build tool fails with an error, for example: https://github.com/brodybits/Cordova-PGB-dialog-test-Windows10-anyarch/blob/master/config.xml#L3. I wish the PhoneGap CLI would catch this sooner, plan to raise this as a new issue when I get a chance.

Closing for now, I will try this with legacy-build/evcore-extbuild versions of the sqlite plugin and report the results.

@brodybits Regarding the length of the app name: that would be something that can be catched by the schema of XML file (XSD)

Sounds good. I wonder if this would cause a problem with existing apps already working on Android/iOS?

I have no idea how to read this... is it saying that ADOBE fetched the wrong plugin from NPM, or constructed an xml file incorrectly ?????

I am out of the office now until the 27th June 2017. Please resend any emails after that time.

[BarbiBimbo]

I discovered that the message was leading in the wrong direction. It failed to properly identify to me WHICH FILE contained the error. By doing a global search on my project, I discovered that this error is caused by a -version number- in the root confg.xml which does not follow the format "version=xx.x.x.x" in my case I had "version=10.0.01.0" Notice that apparently "leading zeroes" are not allowed in any of the tuplets.

[orenagiv]

Not sure if it's the actual solution, but for me, if I used the Publisher ID as the Common Name of the certificate, it worked (but only in the second time I tried to compile...)

Also, I have the following preferences in my config.xml:

<!-- Windows Preferences -->
<preference name="windows-arch" value="x64" />
<preference name="windows-identity-name" value="xxxxxxxx.yyyyyyyyyyy" />
<preference name="windows-appx-target" value="uap" />

Note: The "xxxxxxxx.yyyyyyyyyyy" is the exact value of the identity attribute from the attached image (starts with 6DC97... in the image)

[BarbiBimbo]

I will try this... thanks for the advice!!!! <http://goog_771303340> <http://www.nyc-zone.com/home/barbi/photos> Photos: http://www.nyc-zone.com/home/barbi/photos
