Cant build iOS: 'config file undefined requested'

[louis123562]

Hello,

when i try to build iOS on a fresh project, it stops at

...

Build at: 2021-08-03T08:01:59.509Z - Hash: 821a0c158b6e9af4c76c - Time: 13708ms

> cordova build ios

config file undefined requested for changes not found at /Users/louisspieckerhoff/Desktop/test-app/myApp/platforms/ios/undefined, ignoring

The "path" argument must be of type string. Received undefined

Not a nice error message, but it leads to the entry in config.xml:

    <platform name="ios">
        <config-file parent="com.apple.developer.associated-domains" target="*-Debug.plist">
            <array>
                <string>applinks:example.org</string>
            </array>
        </config-file>
        <config-file parent="com.apple.developer.associated-domains" target="*-Release.plist">
            <array>
                <string>applinks:example.org</string>
            </array>
        </config-file>

Of course i replaced my domain with example.org.
When i remove those lines in config.xml, it compiles all the way through.

Here is my Ionic Info:

Ionic:

   Ionic CLI                     : 6.16.3 (/usr/local/lib/node_modules/@ionic/cli)
   Ionic Framework               : @ionic/angular 5.6.12
   @angular-devkit/build-angular : 12.1.4
   @angular-devkit/schematics    : 12.1.4
   @angular/cli                  : 12.1.4
   @ionic/angular-toolkit        : 4.0.0

Cordova:

   Cordova CLI       : 10.0.0
   Cordova Platforms : android 9.1.0, ios 6.2.0
   Cordova Plugins   : cordova-plugin-ionic-keyboard 2.2.0, cordova-plugin-ionic-webview 4.2.1, (and 17 other plugins)

Utility:

   cordova-res                          : 0.15.3
   native-run (update available: 1.4.0) : 1.3.0

System:

   ios-deploy : 1.10.0
   ios-sim    : 8.0.2
   NodeJS     : v14.16.1 (/usr/local/bin/node)
   npm        : 7.12.1
   OS         : macOS Big Sur
   Xcode      : Xcode 12.5.1 Build version 12E507

I already setup new projects and removed/added the iOS-platform several times, but the compilation always stucks at this point.

Does anyone have a solution for this? Thanks in advance :)

Okay - what does work is using the following entries in the config.xml:

        <edit-config mode="merge" parent="com.apple.developer.associated-domains" target="*-Info.plist">
            <array>
                <string>applinks:example.org</string>
            </array>
        </edit-config>
        <edit-config mode="merge" parent="com.apple.developer.associated-domains" target="*-Info.plist">
            <array>
                <string>applinks:example.org</string>
            </array>
        </edit-config>

Can someone verify this?!
