FileSystem failed on Cordova 3.4.0 “Unable to create target files”

I recently upgraded my iOS Cordova project from 2.7.0 to 3.4.0.

The file system access was broken after the upgrade. (Although it seems Work in the simulator?)

I received an error message stating that “the target file could not be created”, I googled it and considered changing my “full path” to “toURL()” , But to no avail. I really don’t know what to try next?

This is my download code

window.requestFileSystem(
LocalFileSystem.PERSISTENT, 0,

function onFileSystemSuccess(fileSystem) {
fileSystem.root.getFile(
"dummy.html", {
create: true,
exclusive: false
},

function gotFileEntry(fileEntry) {
var sPath = fileEntry.toURL().replace("dummy.html", "");
var fileTransfer = new FileTransfer();
fileEntry.remove();

fileTransfer.download(
"https://dl.dropbox.com/u/13253550/db02.xml",
sPath + "database.xml",

function (theFile) {
console.log("download complete: "+ theFile.toURI());
showLink(theFile.toURI( ));
setTimeout(function () {
checkConnection();
}, 50);
},

function (error) {< br /> console.log("download error source "+ error.source);
console.log("download error target" + error.target) ;
console.log("upload error code: "+ error.code);
});
},
fail);
},
fail);

I found the file plugin (link) and fileTransfer plugin (link) documentation

After making the changes in the original question, I wanted to know if the file plugin part is normal, and started looking for the difference between my fileTransfer code and the provided example.

As a result, I did not do encodeURI() on my download source url (doh)

So the complete and valid code:

window.requestFileSystem (
LocalFileSystem.PERSISTENT, 0,

function onFileSystemSuccess(fileSystem) {
fileSystem.root.getFile(
"dummy.html", {
create: true,
exclusive: false
},

function gotFileEntry(fileEntry) {
var sPath = fileEntry.toURL().replace("dummy.html ", "");
var fileTransfer = new FileTransfer();
fileEntry.remove();
var DBuri = encodeURI("https://dl.dropbox.com/u/ 13253550/db02.xml");
fileTransfer.download(
DBuri,
sPath + "database.xml",

function (theFile) {
console.log("download complete: "+ theFile.toURI());
showLink(theFile.toURI());
setTimeout(function () {
checkConnection();
}, 50);< br />},

function (error) {
console.log("download error source "+ error.source);
console.log("download error target" + error.target);
console.log("upload error code: "+ error.code);
});
},
fail);
},
fail);
