I don’t know if this is the right channel, but I’m getting the following error after I added the plugin https://github.com/mikakrooswijk/cordova-mongodb-storage/ to my project. I already removed the ios platform and added it back (6.1.1), updated cordova (10.0.0), updated the cocoapods (1.9.3)

I’m running across a strange error when trying to build android from the CLI -

TypeError [ERR_INVALID_ARG_TYPE]: The "path" argument must be of type string. Received undefined
    at validateString (internal/validators.js:117:11)
    at Object.join (path.js:1039:7)
    at ConfigKeeper.get (/usr/local/lib/node_modules/cordova/node_modules/cordova-common/src/ConfigChanges/ConfigKeeper.js:44:32)```

Has anyone come across this? cordova-lib 10.0.0, cordova-android 9.0.0. iOS is compiling fine.

And the configkeeper.js code block in question (maybe a red herring):

            file = 'res/xml/config.xml';
        }

        const fake_path = path.join(project_dir, platform, file);```

Try removing your package-lock.json file and your node_modules directory, then run npm install. So far my experience when people running into that issue is NPM isn't upgrading all packages for some whatever reason.

Ugh — no dice (same error). I’ll attack this again in the morning. The weird thing is that Android Studio isn’t complaining, it’s just the CLI.
