I'm unable to compile blackberry version of my app with cordova.

While searching, I found that "Package-Author-Id" must be in lowercase but I don't know where testTCfDqXF1aXBlIEZvcmdlIFpv string come from (I searched in project app, ~/.cordova, sdk folder).
I searched for MANIFEST.MF file but i did not find it, I guess it is generated in cordova build process.

How can i modify Package-Author-Id or build my app ?

Cordova : 3.6.3-0.2.13
Black berry webworks sdk : 2.2

Solution

  • Package-Author-Id case is not the problem, this string seems to be generated with author string from config.xml.
    I did not find how to change it, but black berry does not accept accent in author (at least with cordova 3.6.3) in config.xml file.
    I just replace accent and all works fine.
