  • Closed as program error.

Error description

  • When calling cordova prepare in a MobileFirst Cordova project
with Cordova 5.4.1, a type error occurs. This is due to the
removal of the platform detection method in Cordova 5.4.1. As a
result, the MobileFirst plugin for Cordova errors as it attempts
to use the metioned method.

Local fix

  • Use "mfp cordova prepare" instead of "cordova prepare".
