Failed to fetch platform

See original GitHub issue

Cordova version: 7.0.1 and 7.1.0 Last time build app was on 09.10.18. But now when running npx cordova platform add ios@4.5.4, I’m getting following error:

Error: Failed to fetch platform cordova-ios@4.5.4
Probably this is either a connection problem, or platform spec is incorrect.
Check your connection and platform name/version/URL.
Error: npm: Command failed with exit code 1 Error output:

Found that ticket of acorn package.

Any work around?

@genox I’ve unpinned the cordova version in dependencies of cordova-check-plugins (my package, my bad) and published a patch version to npm as cordova-check-plugins@4.0.4 - should resolve your issue, though global installation is recommended as it’s a CLI tool (as is cordova)

workaround: run npm install acorn in the Cordova project directory. that should install acorn@6 and that fixes the error for me (using cordova@8.1.2)
