CordovaError: Failed to find 'JAVA_HOME' environment variable. Try setting it manually

问题

I get a ionic project from a person, and I want to debug it in a real android device.
I use this command:

ionic cordova run android --device --verbose

And in the end I get these error messages:

Preparing Firebase on Android
No scripts found for hook "before_compile".
Failed to find 'JAVA_HOME' environment variable. Try setting it manually.
CordovaError: Failed to find 'JAVA_HOME' environment variable. Try setting it manually.

I have JAVA_HOME set, indeed if I do echo $JAVA_HOME I get:

/usr/lib/jvm/java-1.11.0-openjdk-amd64

According to Failed to find 'JAVA_HOME' environment variable. Try setting it manually post, I also tried adding bin folder to JAVA_HOME variable, without any success.

If I also try java -version and javac -version I get success messages.
