Mmm I guess so… It’s a path from an old project. Actually I don’t even know what that does but I just changed that value in the config.json file to

ssl: {}

and now it looks like the problem was solved. Command ionic start test blank worked again! Strange thing is that it wasn’t an issue with earlier versions of Ionic but I can’t complain if it’s working now. Tnx @dwieeb

Ahh, okay, so I’m seeing some SSL configuration here:

  ssl:
   { certfile: 'C:\\Users\\Raschid\\Git\\NodeJS\\proxy\\server.key' } }

Is that something you added?
