Ionic build android, Error: spawn EACCES

Question

If I follow this steps to create a new app:

Rubens-MacBook-Pro:~ rlopez$ npm install -g cordova ionic
Rubens-MacBook-Pro:~ rlopez$ ionic start myApp tabs
Rubens-MacBook-Pro:~ rlopez$ cd myApp
Rubens-MacBook-Pro:myApp rlopez$  ionic platform add android@6.2.2 //6.1.x has a bug
Rubens-MacBook-Pro:myApp rlopez$  ionic build android

I get this output:

Error: spawn EACCES

Running ionic info gives the following:

Your system information:

ios-sim version: 5.0.13

What am I doign wrong? Is this a bug in Ionic?

[Edit]

Running ionic build android --verbose gives the following output:

Answer 1

Only for OSX --- Go to Applications Folder from finder and Simply rename Android Studio App Package name by removing space between.

Before : Android Studio After: AndroidStudio

There is no issue of permissions by default just the space was the problem.

Cheers !

Answer 2

I got a great solution.

This is the problem of new version of Android Studio. So downgrade this version to 2.3.3 https://developer.android.com/studio/archive.html

Answer 3

I was able to fix by running the following command in Terminal

sudo chmod 755 "/Applications/Android Studio.app/Contents/gradle/gradle-4.1/bin/gradle"

After running that I was able to run this command successfully

ionic cordova build android --release 

Answer 4

Changing the permissions of

/Applications/Android Studio App Path /Contents/gradle/gradle-..*/bin/gradle

Answer 5

I had the same issue, I solved it by running the command below in the app folder:

ionic hooks add

Answer 6

Running ionic build android --verbose gives the following output:

/Applications/Android Studio 2.4 
Preview.app/Contents/gradle/gradle-3.4.1/bin/gradle -p 
/Users/rlopez/myApp/platforms/android wrapper -b

Changing the permissions of /Applications/Android Studio 2.4 Preview.app/Contents/gradle/gradle-3.4.1/bin/gradle solves the problem.
