I get this error message after I moved my project folder to another location on my pc and tried to run my app.
Error Message
Installation failed with message Invalid File:
C:\Users\Zhong\AndroidStudioProjects\HappyBirthday\app\build\intermediates\split-apk\debug\slices\slice_1.apk.
It is possible that this issue is resolved by uninstalling an existing version of the apk if it is present, and then re-installing.
WARNING: Uninstalling will remove the application data!
Do you want to uninstall the existing application?
But actually my project folder is currently under D:\\
Everything works fine with instant run disabled, but if I enable instant run and click the run button, this error message will appear again.
It seems that the paths of those files are not automatically changed in some files.
I've tried to find some settings to fix that but no luck. I'm new to android developing, please help me with this simple problem.
If you turn off Instant Run, you won't lose anything :)
But if you want, you can try to rebuild the project. Click Build > Clean project. Also you may go to a project folder, then in "app" folder, delete a folder "build" and then again rebuild a project in Android Studio.

Some time ago, I imported Urban Airship into my Android studios project. Everything was fine until recently when it can no longer resolve the corresponding symbols. The code runs fine, it just gives me the red errors if I open the files and so intellisense cannot resolve.
I've tried deleting everything and checking out the project again (no iml files or .idea/.gradle directories are committed), deleting my AS settings from the user directory, invalidating caches from the file menu.
So I ended up having to completely reinstall Android Studio due to having made a custom proguard jar and Android not understanding it can overwrite it and the issue went away. This was an update from 1.1 to 1.2, which made a completely different install directory for all of the components. I'll update if I find any more details.
I just updated from android studio 0.9 to 1.0 and now when i try to run my app everything goes well up to the point where it asks "choose device", then i select my note 4 and then issues error "Local path doesn't exist."
I am using 64bit windows
Also clicked on "Sync Project with Gradle files". The problem is still there!
App:

The project may need to be synced with Gradle files.
Sync Project with Gradle files
Looks like an issue with APK_PATH, which for some reason can't be found..
You may try following the solutions from here or here.
Also, you may try updating your Gradle plugin to the latest version and rebuilding the project.
Did you import the file from an Unix system? The path slashes are different in each one. Try correcting the paths to match your current system.
I had got the same error.
And I cleaned and rebuild the project and
Project -> Clean Project/ Build Project
Synced the project using Gradle
Click on "Sync Project with Gradle files" in Event Log
And you should be good. Worked for me.
Check the Run/Debug Configurations you have.
Click on the icon that has the Android robot written app then click on Android Configuration. When you click on "app", you will see to the right, at the bottom there is "Before launch..." Make sure in the input box below that it says "Gradle-aware Make". If it doesn't, click on whatever it says and click the pencil icon just above it (it is for editing). In the dialog box that pops up, remove whatever command is there (sometimes it is to unistallAll before reinstalling the new updated apk) and click "Okay". When you come back, you will see the input box now has "Gradle-aware Make" which means when you build your app, it will just install it on top of what is there.
I had this issue because I was unistalling everything before installing the new apk but I once cut the process in the middle of this process after it unistalled but not reinstalled. This meant the next time I ran the app, it wanted to unistall but could not find the apk as it has been deleted before. Changed back the configuration like above and it worked.
My android project was compiling well but suddenly it stopped launching. Then I tried to launch other projects from Project Explorer and all project threw same exception:
An internal error occurred during: "Launching Project". java.lang.NullPointerException
But console always shows everything is normal.
Android Launch!
adb is running normally.
Performing com.mmcolrev.LoginActivity activity launch
Here's screenshot of error.
If anyone face this problem, first keep in mind that error is not in your code but due to some internal issue in eclipse ADT. I don't know exact problem but luckily found way to solve it. If you ever encounter this error follow steps below:
Exit Eclipse.
Go to Android workspace.
Locate .metadata folder(make sure you set hidden folder visibility on).
Delete .metedata folder.
Start Eclipse(you will notice project explorer is empty, don't panic) and import all your projects.
Removing Gen/R.java and restarting eclipse, worked for me.
This is a cause of AVD is not picked because you might delete it or it is not picked up correctly ... in other words deployment target is not specified or it has some problem in picking up a device.
To Resolve this:
Right click your project and choose "Properties"
From "Run/Debug" Settings, Highlight over your application name then hit "Edit..."
In "Target" tab, you have to choose a virtual device to be picked automatically under option named "Automatically pick compatible device..."
to avoid such prompt you could choose the first option "Always prompt to pick device" that will ask you everytime to choose or pick a device inside which you want to run your app.
If it still not working restart Eclipse
One cause of this issue for me was that I had been updating my Android Tools with the installer. It was running in the background doing all its updates. I had forgotten about it since I had told it to do the work in the background. Then realized it had finished its work and needed a restart after the installation.
Once the upgrade / installation was done and the IDE was restarted, the Eclipse environment went back to behaving as normal.
I had the same issue.
Non of my project in the workspace would run and I would get the same message "An internal error occurred..." and details would just say something about a Nullpointer. This happend after I did some updates and all projects in the workspace started giving the same issue.
It took me some time to find the problem:
When I go to configuration of the project (Run Configuration...) I could see that "Project" in the configuration settings was empty. So my update removed the projects from the configurations. Once I put back the project in the configuration again problem was gone.
In my case, it was because I was running it with Debug As -> Android Native Application, while the emulator was closed (I debugging on the emulator, not on a real phone).
I needed to first start the emulator using Debug As -> Android Application, after which Debug As -> Android Native Application will work.
Close the emulator and the error re-appears. My conclusion is that Debug As -> Android Native Application won't work unless the emulator is already started.
I had this error with an NDK project (eclipse mars, loaded an ant project) everytime i tried to lauch on the device (google tango yellowstone) using Debug As -> Android Native Application. Note, that i switched the device and changed a dependent library since the last successful build.
When i tried Debug As -> Android Application i got this message:
Re-installation failed due to different application signatures. You must perform a full uninstall of the application. WARNING: This will remove the application data!
Do you want to uninstall?
clicking OK here solved the issue, so Debug As -> Android Native Application also worked again.
I had the same issue all of a sudden. This only happened when I ran in Debug mode, and for me what fixed it was... Run -> Remove All Breakpoints. Then I could add them back, and it ran in debug mode fine.
To resolve this issue, I just remove the old JRE System Library and point to the new JRE System Library.
Got the similar issue after update the project able to procced.
Right click on the project -->Maven --> Update Project
In My case issue was java version in updating it to correct (11->1,8) and doing maven update helped me
ISSUE : Error: Could not find or load main class com.pluralsight.fundamentals.FundamentalsApplication
Caused by: java.lang.ClassNotFoundException: com.pluralsight.fundamentals.FundamentalsApplication
ANSWER:
Open cmd (Command prompt)
Check java version (java -version)
Open POM.xml and check java version there
You are getting this error, that means java version is mismatched.
Change the java version in POM.xml (example: if java 11 , add it as 1.11 in pom.xml file)
Example: <java.version>1.11</java.version>
Update Maven by right click on the on the project in eclipse
Now it will work and the error will be vanished :)
Recently my Eclipse started to ignore java files changes and doesn't rebuild project automatically.
I change file, save it, then trying to launch it on device and see in logs that "application is already installed. This is means that apps on device and on desktop are identical.
If I uninstall app from the device and install again I see old applicaton, with old code. Debugging it is not possible since code is not synced.
Project will rebuild ok after cleanup or after resources changes but it's real pain to rebuild whole project after every code change.
It is just last few days. Why is it? Bad recent Eclipse autoupdate? How to fix it?
My Eclipse seems to be latest version available, IDE 4.3.2, no updates available, latest ADT.
Here is my build settings
Try looking at Window -> Preferences -> Android -> Build
Then look to see if 'Skip packaging and dexing until export or launch' is checked. If so then uncheck it.
I followed googles instructions and exported a test project from Eclipse by using the
Export -> Generate Gradle build files
opened up Android Studio and imported. After getting my support libraries working properly my project would compile with out any errors. My problem started when I tried to run the app on my device. When ever I try to run the app it directs me to use an AVD, never giving me the option to select my device. I obliged, created a new AVD but to no avail only to get build failed error. (I'll add the exact error when I can) NOTE: I can see my device is connected by clicking on "(6)Android" and the bottom left of the screen. I do see all logcat messages in verbose. I added android:debuggable="true"to my manifest but still nothing.
Confused I created a new project directly from Android Studio, hit run and bingo,...it gave me the option to use my device to run it or an AVD. Selecting either results in a successful launch of the dummy "Hello World" app. I think it may have something to do with build variants as my imported project doesn't specify "debug" vs "release" while the Android Studio generated project does.
Anyone else experiencing this?
I found the answer to my own question. Bit of a double whammy. Before installing Android Studio I updated my SDK via Eclipse (as recommended/required by google). Turns out by doing so a few items in my current projects got disconnected. ie. build paths, dependencies, ect. (you now have to place external Jar's in the src/libs folder)
Here is what I did to fix it.
In Eclipse, Preferences -> Java Built Path ->"Order and Export" tab. Make sure items are selected
If you have external Jars, manually copy and paste the jar in the libs folder of the project. (I did this in my Finder)
confirm the project launches via Eclipse
If it runs, export the project again by "Generate Gradle build files" (confirm overwriting existing files, if any)
5.Open Android Studio and re-import the project. Again, confirming overwriting of any existing files.
6.Next to the run bottom at the top of the screen click on the drop down next to your project name. Click "Edit Configurations..." and select "show chooser dialog" if not already selected.
clicked ok to exit,..and PRESTO!!! I finally have a successful project migration.
Hope this saves someone else time.
Cheers!
Yeah i have experienced similar stuff on Eclipse, its quite buggy. Since Android studio is based on it i would expect everything. Still the best solution to everything is to reload project, refresh project or restart IDE.
