This tutorial guides you on how to fix Invalid VCS root mapping android studio project error that you are facing while opening ionic project in android studio.

Basically, I just downloaded an healthcare.zip project and wanted to run the application in android studio (android device).

I had setup nodejs and ionic to run the application in browser. After setting up and running the application in browser wanted to try to run the app in android studio.

To run the application in android studio, I had followed the below steps.

> npm i

> ionic build

> npx cap add android 

> npx cap sync android

> npx cap open android

The last npx command npx cap open android will open the android studio software with current running project. Running that command opened the android studio software with current project, but it resulted in following error “Invalid VCS root mapping… registered as a Git root, but no Git repositories were found there” as shown below.

Invalid VCS root mapping
The directory C:Users…entssneppetshealthcare is registered as a Git root, but no Git repositories were found there.

Fix Invalid VCS root mapping error

For my scenario, I did not clone the project from Git instead downloaded the project zip and trying to run the app.

If Git is installed in your machine and if you had cloned the project repo from Github, then the project directory will have .git repositories. Therefore the Git repositories were missing since it is not cloned from Git.

To fix Invalid VCS root mapping error, try to locate file called vcs.xml. You could find that file in the following path.

<PROJECT_DIRECTORY>/android/.idea/vcs.xml

If you check that vcs.xml file, it contains some info/ path related to Git which was not found on your machine.

Therefore, first I closed the android studio and tried renaming that file to vcss.xml and ran the command npx cap open android again. This workaround worked for me and I did not see the error again.

Note, I did not delete any folder or file, I just renamed the vcs.xml. But there are other recommendations to delete vcs.xml file or .idea folder itself. But I would recommend to take backup before you try any of these.

That’s it. Hope it helped 🙂

We are developing an SDK which will be rolled out to our clients, as well as several apps which will use the SDK. In order to develop the SDK, its easiest to have a master project — such as a test app which has the SDK included as a module. This allows it the source to be available during debugging and is much easier to make bug fixes to the SDK.

My expectation was that when using Android Studio to create a «New Project from Version Control» (file menu) that the submodules specified in .gitmodules would be cloned also, however this is not the default behavior. When performing this action on a repo with .gitmodules, and the settings.gradle has an include statement for the module (makes sense right?), AS displays an error of a VCS root with no source. «Is registered as git root, but no git repositories were found there»

1. Is there a reason why it shouldn’t be the default behavior? Is this a git thing?
2. If I want to update this behavior, is this a git alias thing (suggested here) or is there an Android Studio config to make it use something like git clone --recursive?

My goal is to reduce friction for new developers on my team. I am considering just using SourceTree (which automatically clones submodules) or writing the git commands required as a reference, however I prefer when things work as expected via the IDE.

The environment is Android Studio 1.5.1 & git 1.9.X — both windows 7 and OSX.
