java.io.FileNotFoundException gradle.properties (Operation not permitted)

I am installing a ionic Angular & Cordova on new Mac book pro, testing it with ionic starter templates before migrating my project from my old Mac book pro.


I am currently using this installation guides :
https://ionicframework.com/docs/installation/android
https://ionicframework.com/docs/building/android.


Everything works fine with iOS. I am actually facing the following error while trying to test with android :

    ionic cordova run android -l


I get the following error:

java.io.FileNotFoundException: /Users/ [...] /super/platforms/android/gradle.properties (Operation not permitted)

/usr/local/Cellar/gradle/6.1.1/bin/gradle: Command failed with exit code 1


Beside trying to reinstall several elements and check installation guides, I also tried to review and allow read & write permissions for the entire project.
If anyone has a lead or a solution it would be great.
Thanks in advance for your help.
