I am trying to create an Android project on Windows using Cordova 2.2.0 (PhoneGap). According to this blog post this command should work -
I have also had the same experience with Windows while creating new PhoneGap project. Then I tried with relative path. For my case I wanted to create project under C:\phonegap_projects\ parent folder and my PhoneGap bin was under C:\phonegap\cordova-2.7.0\android\ parent folder. So I tried with, after navigating to C:\phonegap\cordova-2.7.0\android\bin directory:
create ..\..\..\..\phonegap_projects\
This worked for me.
