Description

Hello,

I hope someone can help me with this problem, which is possibly easy to solve but I do not give with it.

I have a cordova project and I use cordova-plugin-inappbrowser in version 1.5.0. The plugin has always worked well until I modified the androidmanifest.xml targetSdkVersion from

``
to
``

I use Cordova CLI 6.5.0

When I compile the app with this change, the application crashed when I use
`var ref = cordova.InAppBrowser.open (filePath, '_system', 'location = no');
`
for any type of file.

Please help me. Thank you

Research direction

Start by reproducing the cordova.InAppBrowser.open(filePath, '_system', 'location=no') call with targetSdkVersion 26 and compare it with 23. Inspect the Android side of the plugin and capture the crash output; done means identifying a reproducible cause and confirming that opening files no longer crashes, or documenting the missing compatibility information.
