I keep recieving the following error when attempting to add a platform to a cordova project.
ERROR: executing command 'ant', make sure you have ant installed and added to your path.
I have added my JAVA_HOME, ANT_HOME and ANDROID_HOME (both \tools and \platform-tools) environment variables and can confirm they are all installed correctly be executing 'java', 'ant -version' and 'android' commands in my console and getting responses.
Right now, I have the above mentioned environment variables as both User and System variables, but have also tried just having them configured as System variables.
Ant version: 1.9.2
java: jdk1.8.0_11
I'm quite stumped right now because everything seems to be configured/installed correctly. Is there a specific location I should install/un-zip these components?
You have to show full path to bin folder of ANT. see for the variable name path, edit it. add one of the following to the end of it's value.
Suppose your ant folder is in d drive like this D:\ant then your ANT_HOME value should be D:\ant. Then add this to your path variable
%ANT_HOME%\bin
OR add the full path like
D:\ant\bin
