Answer 1

I am also a completely new PhoneGap in this world, and I had the same issue with the iOS version.

Make sure you are using version 2.0.0, as version 2.0.1 is currently missing a .pkg file. Follow the instructions at Phonegap.com.

When you run ./create /user/myhome/documents/HelloWorld com.mydomain.HelloWorld HelloWorld and open HelloWorld.xcodeproj , select the HelloWorld project, then go to Targets , click on HelloWorld , then go to the Build Phases tab. Expand the Target Dependencies parameter. There must be a CordobaLib item listed, and if there is one, delete it and add it again.

It took me a few hours to find out, hope this saves others time!

Answer 3

Edit your_project_folder/www/config.xml

and change

 preference name="phonegap-version" value="1.9.0" 

to

 preference name="phonegap-version" value="2.0.0" 

Answer 4

If you installed the Cordova-2.0.0 development kit, it is caused by the incorrect loading of the Phonegap JavaScript file in the index.html file. Make sure the following instruction

 <script type="text/javascript" charset="utf-8" src="cordova-2.0.0.js"></script> 

downloads the jg phonegap file corresponding to the SDK used.

Answer 5

Try moving the “Your project” root folder to the same “CordovaLib” root folder.
