Visual Studio iOS implementation fails because "the edge module has not been precompiled"

Question

I am trying to deploy an HTML / CSS / JS Apache Cordova application from a Windows machine on a Mac. I believe that they communicate correctly using the remotebuild agent, but when I try to create an empty project for deployment on a Mac, this error occurs at the very beginning of the build:

MDAVSCLI : error : The edge module has not been pre-compiled for node.js version v4.1.1. You must build a custom version of edge.node. Please refer to https://github.com/tjanczuk/edge for building instructions.

I followed the link and looked for a solution on how to fix this error, but the link does not seem to apply to what I am doing at all. I do not use any node.js functions in my code, so I am confused why this error occurs. I'm only trying to create an almost empty HTML page, and I still get the error, no matter how simple I make the page.

How can I fix this solution? What is the best way to get rid of this error or, since the error requires a preliminary compiler to work with node.js version 4.1.1?

Answer 1

There is a problem with Cordova 5.3.1 and Node v4. https://github.com/Microsoft/cordova-docs/blob/master/articles/known-issues/known-issues-ios.md#building-for-ios-hangs-when-nodejs-v40-is-installed

I fixed the removal of Node v4.1.1 and the installation of Node v0.12.7 https://nodejs.org/en/download/releases/
