I was having a similar problem, running the command ionic capacitor run android I was getting androidmanifest.xml doesn't exist.

It was solved by running the command ionic capacitor update

Updating to the most recent version (v2.0.1) of cordova-android-support-gradle-release should resolve your issue:

ionic cordova platform rm android
ionic cordova plugin rm cordova-android-support-gradle-release
ionic cordova plugin add cordova-android-support-gradle-release@latest 
ionic cordova platform add android
ionic cordova build android

I was getting this error while only using Capacitor which I thought was strange so I nuked the android path in my root folder and then npx cap add android again and the build worked after that

Updating Capacitor did the trick for me:

npx cap update

This issue is mostly faced, when you add/remove a new plugin. So by just running cordova clean can resolve that issue.

Inside your CMD/Terminal:

C:\<project folder>\cordova clean

   % brew uninstall node
   % brew install nodenv 
   % echo 'export PATH=${PATH}:~/.nodenv/shims' >> ~/.zprofile 
   % nodenv install 17.7.2
   % nodenv global 17.7.2

   % npx cap run android
