Problem: The Cordova App when run on Android give a Connection refused error on https://localhost/* URLs.
Fix: Follow these steps:
- Edit package.json
- Set homepage from “./” to “https://10.0.2.2/”
- Save, build and run the App.
Probable Reason: Localhost seems to get routed to the host while the emulator runs the App within a virtual container (assumption).
10.0.2.2 is a special IP mapped to the “localhost” of the emulated environment.
