Unable to run Meteor 1.9 with meteor-desktop

[wreiske]

I am thrilled to see some progress with meteor-desktop!! Decided to finally try it again in my meteor project, but it seems to fail to start.

vpn0-user6:project username$ meteor npm install --save-dev meteor-desktop
vpn0-user6:project username$ meteor run ios --port 5000 --mobile-server=http://localhost --verbose --settings settings.json

The app starts, and then errors out.

=> Started your app.

Any ideas?

Looks like listEmulatorBuildTargets() needs to be modified in .meteor/local/cordova-build/platforms/ios/cordova/lib/list-emulator-build-targets

Before

 availableDevicesInCategory.forEach(function (device) {
                    if (device.name === deviceType.name.replace(/\-inch/g, ' inch') && 
                        device.availability.toLowerCase().indexOf('unavailable') < 0) {
                            availAcc.push(device);
                        }
                });

After

 availableDevicesInCategory.forEach(function (device) {
                        if (device.name === deviceType.name.replace(/\-inch/g, ' inch') && device.isAvailable) {
                            availAcc.push(device);
                        }
                    });

After that, the following error occurs:

** BUILD SUCCEEDED **

No target specified for emulator. Deploying to undefined simulator
** RUN SUCCEEDED **
Device type "com.apple.CoreSimulator.SimDeviceType.undefined" could not be found.

Running with ios-device instead of ios runs...

For some reason, it died and now it won't start
