Unable to apply changes on device. Error is: Invalid Version.

Environment

Windows 10 + Android

D:\DANI\vscode\NativeScriptAngularExample>tns info

Describe the bug

When I run the command ns run android to launch the app in a virtual device, the app is built and installed correctly, but it shows the error in console:

Unable to apply changes on device: emulator-5554. Error is: Invalid Version: ~8.0.0.

I have checked that the app is installed in the virtual device and if I open it manually it works properly, it seems the problem only affects to hot-reload of changes.

To Reproduce

1. Install NativeScript in your computer with npm
2. Create a new sample project using the CLI with the Angular template
3. Setup the environment as per documentation (ANDROID_HOME, Path)
4. Install Android SDK >= 28 and create a virtual device for that version
5. Launch virtual device and run the NativeScript application using the CLI

Expected behavior

The expected behaviour would be to not see any errors in console and have hot-reaload of changes in the virtual device.

Sample project

I'm following the NativeScript Tutorial, the project has been created with the command ns create NativeScriptAngularExample --angular and there are no changes in the project except adding the dev dependency "@nativescript/android": "~8.0.0" as per documentation.

https://docs.nativescript.org/environment-setup.html#windows-android

I have checked my setup is correct by running the doctor.

See complete log of doctor command:

D:\DANI\vscode\NativeScriptAngularExample>ns doctor android

Please let me know if you need any further information. Thanks in advance!

Inizia riproducendo ns run android con il progetto di esempio Angular e la versione documentata ~8.0.0 di @nativescript/android. Traccia il percorso dell’hot reload di Android dopo la compilazione webpack, concentrandoti sul punto in cui viene analizzata questa versione. Il lavoro è completato quando le modifiche vengono applicate senza l’errore Invalid Version e l’hot reload funziona sull’emulatore.
