(gradle-2.13-all)-Exception in thread "main" java.lang.RuntimeException: java.io.IOException: Server returned HTTP response code: 403 for URL: http://services.gradle.org/distributions/gradle-2.13-all.zip

 Answer:

There are some simple steps to fix the error.

1) find and open platforms\android\cordova\lib\builders\GradleBuilder.js file with text editor.
Find the line

var distributionUrl = process.env['CORDOVA_ANDROID_GRADLE_DISTRIBUTION_URL'] || 'http\\://services.gradle.org/distributions/gradle-2.13-all.zip';

then change http to https in this line as follows:

var distributionUrl = process.env['CORDOVA_ANDROID_GRADLE_DISTRIBUTION_URL'] || 'https\\://services.gradle.org/distributions/gradle-2.13-all.zip';

then save the file.

2) Check installed jdk versions and install jdk 1.8 if not installed.

Then if the JAVA_HOME environment variable is anything but 1.8 open tools->options->Tools for Apache Cordova->Environment Variable Overrides in Visual Studio, check the JAVA_HOME checkbox and select the java 1.8 folder like follows:

C:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.8.0_241

then run build it will work.

Overview Most programming languages contain good and bad parts, but JavaScript has more than its share of the bad, having been developed and released in a hurry before it could be refined. This authoritative book scrapes away these bad features to reveal a subset of JavaScript that's more reliable, readable, and maintainable than the language as a whole-a subset you can use to create truly extensible and efficient code. Considered the JavaScript expert by many people in the development community, author Douglas Crockford identifies the abundance of good ideas that make JavaScript an outstanding object-oriented programming language-ideas such as functions, loose typing, dynamic objects, and an expressive object literal notation. Unfortunately, these good ideas are mixed in with bad and downright awful ideas, like a programming model based on global variables. When Java applets failed, JavaScript became the language of the Web by default, making its popularity almost completely ind

Cordova App for Publishing to an App Store - Steps by Steps (https://docs.microsoft.com/)

When you build an application for deployment to an emulator, simulator, physical device or the Cordova Simulate browser, you're building a version of the application specifically crafted for local testing of the app. The app is usually built with debug information packaged into the executable, and the app is signed with a signing key which allows it to work on your local device, but not on any device. Before you can build your application for deployment to any device through a public app store, you must first configure Visual Studio with the information it needs to complete the process of packaging and signing the application for deployment through an app store. In this article, you'll learn how to configure a project for deployment and create a deployment package for each target platform: Android iOS Windows Android Applications For Android applications, preparing your environment for publishing, and publishing the app requires that you complete the following steps: Modify App
