[jira] [Commented] (CB-5899) FileError code 5 returned with dirEntry.readEntries()

["Ian Clelland (JIRA)" <ji...@apache.org>]

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CB-5899?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=13891634#comment-13891634 ] 

Ian Clelland commented on CB-5899:
----------------------------------

In your config.xml file, add a line like

{code}
<preference name="AndroidPersistentFileLocation" value="Compatibility" />
{code}

inside the {{<widget>}} tag. (If you're developing a new app, and you don't have users who have previously stored data, then you can use {{"Internal"}} instead of {{"Compatibility"}}; that will use the app-specific storage directory on the device for your files, rather than attempting to put them on the SD card.

> When attempting to read entries of a DirectoryEntry from the local file system the plugin returns an FileError code 5.
> I am able to successfully read the root directory of the local file system using window.requestFileSystem() but creating a directoryReader and calling readEntries() of any sub directories of the root file system results in the error.
> I am using Cordova 3.3 and have tried both 0.2.5 of the file plugin as well as the current Dev branch.
