I am trying to run a Meteor project on an Android device and / or emulator. When I run either meteor run --verbose android , or meteor run --verbose android-device , I get errors related to the fact that Cordoba cannot find specific gradle files. Here are some results from my console:

Indeed, the files and directories that he is trying to access are missing. $ANDROID_HOME/tools/template/gradle/wrapper does not have a gradlew directory
sarah@sarah-ThinkPad-X220 :~/Android/Sdk/tools/templates/gradle/wrapper$ ls gradle
Similarly, there are no files at all in my ~/simple-todos/.meteor/local/cordova-build/platforms/android/gradle/wrapper , so there is no gradle-wrapper.properties .
I am also not sure about the meaning of spawn ENOENT error.
How can i fix this?
EDIT . I wanted to test that gradle worked on my machine, so I made an application in Android Studio and ran it on my phone - it worked fine. My Meteor project is still not working on Android, but I think this tells me that gradle is working (somewhere) on my computer.
EDIT . I searched the gradlew directory on my computer, and only the ones I found were in android-studio , and not in my $ANDROID_HOME ( ~\Android/Sdk ). Not sure what to do with this information, but it seems relevant.
EDIT It occurred to me that gradle -v output might be useful:
