cordova - Error: Failed to fetch platform android

Question

I installed cordova and create a new project.

But when I use this command to add android platform:

cordova platform add android

this error appears:

Error: Failed to fetch platform android 
Probably this is either a connection problem, or platform spec is incorrect.
Check your connection and platform name/version/URL.
Error: version not found: [email protected]

This is how I created the new project:

cordova create hello com.example.hello HelloWorld

And this is my SDK Manager:

But I can add ios platform (But I work on Windows)

Answer 1

I had the same problem with the [email protected] version. I solved this issue, checking what version of android is provided by cordova. You can check it in C:/Users/%USER%/.cordova/lib/npm-cache/cordova-android

Then, you install the android platform version provided. For me it was @5.1.0 which was in my cordova-android folder. So I used the cmd line following:

cordova platform add [email protected] which should be a differnet version for you.

Kind regards !
