I have the same issue on my Samsung S9 Oreo 8.0.0

from cordova-plugin-image-resizer.

hrm... I will try to find out more... I tried it on a android 9 device and it works without problems... maybe the problems are just appear in 8?

May be.. I don't have android 9 so didn't checked.

I will check different android versions later the day.

Same here, 8.1.

I've never worked with native Android code but it looks like folder.mkdir(); must be failing, then you don't check the result of saveFile (which is null after mkdir fails).

Something to do with permissions?

@JoschkaSchulz Any updates?

@crawft Permissions are looking good.

I have debugged the code and its failing to create folder at line no#115: success = folder.mkdir(). So saveFile function is returning null and scaledFile.toString() is failing at line no#61.

I have tested line no#110 as follows, but still same error.

• folder = new File(Environment.getExternalStorageDirectory() + "/" + folderName);
• folder = new File(Environment.getExternalStorageDirectory(), folderName);

I have following permissions:
uses-sdk android:minSdkVersion="16"
uses-permission android:name="android.permission.INTERNET"
uses-permission android:name="android.permission.ACCESS_NETWORK_STATE"
uses-permission android:name="android.permission.WRITE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE"
uses-permission android:name="android.permission.ACCESS_COARSE_LOCATION"
uses-permission android:name="android.permission.ACCESS_FINE_LOCATION"
uses-feature android:name="android.hardware.location.gps"
uses-permission android:name="android.permission.RECORD_AUDIO"

preference name="AndroidPersistentFileLocation" value="Internal"
preference name="AndroidExtraFilesystems" value="files,files-external,documents,sdcard,cache,cache-external,assets,root"

Please let me know if I am missing anything.

I worked around this by changing the code around line 129 as follows, this creates the resized image in a private folder so may not work if you want the image elsewhere (though maybe you could just copy it after or something).

Context context = this.cordova.getActivity().getApplicationContext();
folder = context.getDir(folderName, context.MODE_PRIVATE);

@crawft would you be so kind to create a pull request? then we could fix that for everyone :)

from cordova-plugin-image-resizer.

I used the method that @crawft had given and created a PR for it.
