             Summary: Cordova fails to initialize if loading startPage from non application bundle location
                 Key: CB-4034
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CB-4034
             Project: Apache Cordova
          Issue Type: Bug
    Affects Versions: 2.8.0
         Environment: XCode 4.6.3
iOS, Cordova 2.8, 2.9
            Reporter: Aleksey Yashchenko


When loading webview content from outside application bundle (from app Documents folder) Cordova fails to initialize correctly:

- no deviceready event

- some plugins are not working (e.g. Contacts plugin)

There are several other unwanted effects (e.g. when accessign geolocation data user asked for permission twice - first time for the whole app (I assume by the system), second time for loaded page (by webview?)).

To reproduce the effect:
- create fresh cordova project
- built/run
- from XCode Organized download application content bundle
- create "Documents/www/*" folder with some tests inside (content of original www folder suits well)
- change AppDelegate:
{quote}
    // Set your app's start page by setting the <content src='foo.html' /> tag in config.xml.
    // If necessary, uncomment the line below to override it.
    
    self.viewController.startPage = [[NSURL fileURLWithPath:[[[MainViewController applicationDocumentsDirectory] stringByAppendingPathComponent:@"www"] stringByAppendingPathComponent:@"index.html"]] absoluteString];

    self.viewController.wwwFolderName = [self.viewController.startPage stringByDeletingLastPathComponent];
{quote}

- see successful page load event in console log:
{quote}
...Resetting plugins due to page load.
