OK. This may sound like I'm overly frustrated, because I am. I'm trying to build a Blackberry app for release for the guy I'm working for. I built the Android one just fine after adding a build config and adding the keystore. But then, well, even if I just run phonegap build blackberry 10, I get the following:

Javy@MacBookJ [/clientProject]$ phonegap build blackberry10
[phonegap] executing 'cordova build blackberry10'...
Running command: /clientProject/platforms/blackberry10/cordova/build --buildConfig=/clientProject/build.json



  error: unknown option `--buildConfig=/clientProject/build.json'



ERROR building one of the platforms: Error: /clientProject/platforms/blackberry10/cordova/build: Command failed with exit code 1
You may not have the required environment or OS to build this project

Error: /clientProject/platforms/blackberry10/cordova/build: Command failed with exit code 1

    at Process.ChildProcess._handle.onexit (internal/child_process.js:211:5)

Javy@MacBookJ [/clientProject]$

My big problem is that I'm not even adding the buildConfig parameter, and Phonegap is just DOING IT ALL ON ITS OWN LIKE IT RUNS THE PLACE!

HELP???

For me, deleting my build.json (which I had used for android build) and then running the "cordova build blackberry10" command, solved the problem.

  • A year later and I'm still running into the same issues. Deleting my `build.json` file is not the best option, but at least I can still re-use my phonegap CLI in a more universal way. Anyone have info on why removing `build.json` helps? Or what parameters should be in that file, so maybe we can fill it in and get it working without hackish fixes? – Jay V Dec 05 '16 at 16:30
  • I've marked this as the correct answer as, at this time, the instructions below do not copy the www folder into the blackberry platform folder. Anyone trying _that_ fix will run into an issue where the www folder doesn't match. – Jay V Dec 05 '16 at 19:57

I have the same issue. You can solve this by calling the build.bat by yourself without any parameters inside your comandline(CMD). The build.bat is inside the blackberry10 folder:

Blackberry10 path

  1. Open you Phonegap projekt folder
  2. platforms folder
  3. blackberry10 folder
  4. cordova folder
  5. start the comandline tool inside this folder (CMD in windows)
  6. type: build.bat
  7. type: run.bat

build.bat only build the .bar files and run.bat deploys the app to your device.

    While this is an excellent answer and I am marking this as correct, it turns out that in my instance, the Phonegap and platform versions may have been misaligned. I had deleted the blackberry platform and re-added it from scratch and it worked fine for me. – Jay V Nov 30 '15 at 17:11
