Source and destination must not be the same. #693

Bug Report

Problem

Since cordova-android 8.0.0 we have build problems. In most of cases we got the error
"An error occurred while running subprocess cordova." and the last line
"Source and destination must not be the same".
Sometimes, the build is ok. - We always check out the git repository of the app. (hard clean)

What is expected to happen?

Build successfully.

What does actually happen?

Build failed.

Information

This error is not 100% reprocable. But about 80%.
I just updated Cordova-Android. I expecting the node plugin fa-extra. Maybe Cordova-Android uses this with wrong attributes?

Command or Code

ionic cordova build android --release --prod --generateSourceMap false
But also ionic cordova build or cordova build.

Hey, we are facing a similar error. Have you found a way how to fix it? Thanks a lot in advance!

ksibod · 2019-10-01T22:23:14Z

For me, the issue was that I was using the <edit-config> tag in my config.xml file that contained a <uses-permission> tag that was already included in the manifest file.
I figured since the mode was in "merge", this wouldn't be a problem, but removing that fixed the issue. This was using 8.0.0 (might not be exactly the same problem but just in case for anyone else that stumbles along here).

breautek · 2019-10-02T03:36:06Z

cordova-android doesn't use fs-extra yet. Is the issue reproducible using Cordova 9?

cambooo · 2019-10-02T08:55:21Z

For me, the issue was that I was using the <edit-config> tag in my config.xml file that contained a <uses-permission> tag that was already included in the manifest file.

Thanks for your help, but I do not have this line in the config.xml

cambooo · 2019-10-02T08:59:17Z

cordova-android doesn't use fs-extra yet. Is the issue reproducible using Cordova 9?

Oh, frankly, I am not a developer. Guy why started the project got sick and I am trying to fix this issue by myself.

I am using Cordoba 9 version.

breautek · 2019-10-02T13:34:40Z

Running the command that produces the error with the --verbose flag should produce a stacktrace that lead to that error. Please provide that information, so that we can track down where the fault is. Thanks.

PeterHdd · 2019-10-08T14:00:43Z

Im also getting this error, I'm executing the following command :

ionic cordova platform add android@8

breautek · 2019-10-08T14:02:19Z

Im also getting this error, I'm executing the following command :

ionic cordova platform add android@8

Does ionic support passing down the --verbose flag to the cordova command?

PeterHdd · 2019-10-08T14:03:20Z

Yes I added verbose now and I will tell you the result

PeterHdd · 2019-10-08T14:18:30Z

It worked, I removed the plugin cordova-plugin-android-permissions .

Great. But now I need to figure out why it is not working with cordova-plugin-android-permissions.

I dont wanna stay till night here :p Do you know any other cordova plugin for android permissions?

breautek · 2019-10-08T14:22:04Z

Thank you, I think this is enough information to at least investigate where the error is coming from.

I dont wanna stay till night here :p Do you know any other cordova plugin for android permissions?

I use https://github.com/dpa99c/cordova-diagnostic-plugin personally.

PeterHdd · 2019-10-08T14:32:03Z

It worked with cordova-android-permission, I added the following in the config.xml:

        <config-file parent="/*" target="AndroidManifest.xml">
            <uses-permission android:name="android.permission.READ_PHONE_STATE" />
        </config-file>

Then added the plugin again, then I added the android platform and it worked.

Now for the build.

Im not sure what the problem is, but it seems its all related to this plugin and <config-file> as @cambooo commented before

PeterHdd · 2019-10-08T16:53:52Z

Btw the build succeeded

PeterHdd · 2019-10-14T11:46:02Z

Now I got this error again when building, even though I didnt change anything

breautek · 2019-10-15T20:41:31Z

I just received this error at work, it was trying to copy a file that was a symlink.

Modifying the following line:

https://github.com/apache/cordova-common/blob/cfa7b3e5f809bc046d109f0b1f98666058e46cd1/src/FileUpdater.js#L103

To add the options parameter:

{
    "dereference": true
}

Fixed the problem for me.

The deference option does:

dereference : dereference symlinks, default is false.

Sagar-rr · 2020-01-02T14:47:57Z

Hey, I was having same error "Source and destination must not be the same"
My error was solved by Following Command

cordova clean android

scofield-hello · 2020-03-13T09:43:43Z

I got the same error.

ionic cordova run android --release --verbose

erisu · 2021-07-30T04:59:33Z

I am closing out this ticket as we beleive it has been resolved since.

Since then, I have not be able to reproduced it anymore.

The suspected code has been refactored and updated since original report.
The dependencies which performed the copying has been updated.
There were many releases of the tooling & library since ticket creation.

If anyone is still see this issue, please try and reinstall with the latest versions of:

cordova CLI
cordova-android Platform

Reinstall Cordova w/ Latest Version

npm uninstall -g cordova
npm install -g cordova@latest

Reinstall Platform w/ Latest Version (in the project directory)

cordova platform remove android
cordova platform add android@10.0.1

If problem persists please make a new ticket with updated information, such as:

Error stacktrace
cordova info printout
etc
