Codepush not working Android plugin 1.12.5
We have a couple of Cordova/Phonegap apps (Android and IOS) which use cordova-plugin-code-push to distribute new content. The apps were built using PhoneGap Build.
Currently the live apps use cordova-plugin-code-push 1.11.7 and index.html has this line
<meta content="default-src https://codepush.azurewebsites.net 'self' data: gap: https://ssl.gstatic.com 'unsafe-eval'; img-src * data: blob: android-webview-video-poster:; style-src 'self' 'unsafe-inline'; media-src *" http-equiv="Content-Security-Policy"/>
and i use the app center CLI to release updates eg
appcenter codepush release-cordova -a _owner/appname_ -d Production
and this works fine - the new content is picked up by the apps and the Appcenter shows the new release and the number of devices with this release.
However, I know there have been issues with https://codepush.azurewebsites.net in the past, and we need to repoint codepush to https://codepush.appcenter.ms
So I uninstalled cordova-plugin-code-push and reinstalled to the latest version.
This also required removing and reinstalling some of the plugins for file handlig as it gave errors about versino numbers.
I also updated index.html
<meta content="default-src https://codepush.appcenter.ms 'self' data: gap: https://ssl.gstatic.com 'unsafe-eval'; img-src * data: blob: android-webview-video-poster:; style-src 'self' 'unsafe-inline'; media-src *" http-equiv="Content-Security-Policy"/>
However, for the Android app, I had issues. I created a brand new test app to make sure it wasn't somethin inherited from the live app, but the same thing happened.
Having created a release using the appcenter CLI and installed the app, on running it the first time, it downloads the release. However, Appcenter Distribute/CodePush still shows 0 active devices (normally this is upfdated once the release is installed on each device).
I then created a new release, again using Appcenter re-ran the app.
This time it did not pick up the new release, but stayed at the first one.
Appcenter showed both Rollbacks and Active Devices as '-' (not even 0)
I used Chrome to debug the app and saw this error message
DevTools failed to load SourceMap: Could not load content for file:///android_asset/www/plugins/code-push/script/acquisition-sdk.js.map: System error: net::ERR_FILE_NOT_FOUND
So it looks like the first release did not download something or if it did, the app can't find it.
Is it a problem with the file plugins or codepush.
(Oddly, I have created a Cordova IOS app - this time using XCode with cordova-plugin-code-push 1.12.2 and thsis works fine).
Has anyone encountered any issues with this, and better still, anyone have a solution?
Here is information about the problem Android app:

Hi @BbFGE , Thanks for reporting!
Could you please check your app with latest cordova-plugin-code-push version 1.13.0?
Please let me know if it was successful or you still have this issue?
I have tried cordova plugin rm cordova-plugin-code-push then cordova plugin add [email protected] but the installed version is still cordova-plugin-code-push 1.12.5 "CodePush"
@kelokchan it is interesting. Could you please also reinstall the platform?
