It helped me to create the project through the PhoneGap CLI and then just add the project in the Gui. That worked for me

  1. Install phonegap Cli with npm: npm install -g phonegap@latest
  2. Go to your project folder and create the project: phonegap create testproject
  3. Start the PhoneGap Desktop App and add the existing project

We've pinpointed the issue, there seems to be have been a recent change to the template and it seems to have a compatibility issue with the connect-phonegap create API which is used by PhoneGap Desktop to create projects.

We're currently working on a fix.

In the mean time you can also use the PhoneGap CLI as an alternative.

  • We've made a fix to the template, however you'll need to reset your template cache by deleting the `.cordova` folder. On Mac: `/Users//.cordova` On Windows: `C:\Users\\.cordova` – Herm Wong Jul 18 '16 at 23:55

  • Are you using a firewall or AV softeware? Are you using a corporate network or home network? – Herm Wong Aug 01 '16 at 17:36
