Specified application doesn't exist or isn't a bundle directory

[maerlynflagg]

Visual Studio 2017, Version 15.2
Cordova Version 7.0.1
Cordova Platform iOS Version 4.4.0
XCode Version on MAC: 8.0 , build 8A218a

build option "simulator" (ex. iPad Air):
remotebuild works. i can see my cordova app in the simulator device and i can use the app.

build option "remote device":

after upgrade to Cordova CLI 7.0.1 and cordova-ios 4.4.0 it doesn't build to the end. some steps a shown in terminal and in VS2017. downgrad to cordova-ios 4.2.0 doesn't work.

i get this error message on build with remote device:

if i follow the path "platforms/ios/build/device/". in this directory is a ".app" file, but not with the package name (de.ntag.mycordovaapp), which would produce de.ntag.mycordovaapp.app. the build used the value of tag to generate the ".app" file.

so the build looks for packagename.app, can't found it and the exception throw.

okay, i found a solution...

On MAC Cordova 7.0.1 and remotebuild 2.1.3 was installed, but not the latest version of nodejs/npm. so updated npm/node to latest and i updated ios-deploy...

now it is working...
