Android studio won't start (Unable to create JVM error) - android

Android studio was working fine till today morning but when I opened studio today it shows can't start. Shows error:
Searched the internet and SO, but couldn't find the answer. any suggestion will be appreciated.
i have set the JAVA_HOME path correctly. i have used studio and developed projects also using it.

Try this also
Delete this file : (Tested on Windows)
%USERPROFILE%\.AndroidStudiox.x\studio64.exe.vmoptions
(Keeping a backup of this file is recommended)
replace x.x with your Android studio version
The file is used to manually set java virtual machine parameters for android studio.
Faulty configuration might cause the software not to start.

You have to try to rename .AndroidStudio2.x.
please refer to topic - JDK error when trying to start Android Studio

Very simple trick worked for me.Though JAVA_HOME was set, it was giving an error.
To make it correct, close the error message window first, then go to environment variable settings of the system, say Edit JAVA_HOME, do not edit just say save/ok. and restart the Android Studio.
Tada... its happily working ever after :) !

eclipse cause Lint error when save any layout xml files

I think I'd tried everything to fix it but failed.
I've downloaded eclipse from here: http://www.eclipse.org/downloads/packages/eclipse-android-developers-includes-incubating-components/neonr
It's the latest eclipse package made to work with android app developing.
AND
I've downloaded and installed Android Sdk from:
https://dl.google.com/android/installer_r24.4.1-windows.exe
https://dl.google.com/android/android-sdk_r24.4.1-macosx.zip
That's right, both windows and mac versions.
My Android sdk looks like this.
And I created a new android application project, and I just open a pre-made layout xml file and as soon as I save a change I got this.
'Running Android Lint' has encountered a problem.
Failed
Detail:
Failed
java.lang.UnsupportedOperationException
So, here is the big question, how to fix android lint? Or at least point me the right direction, I've tried this on a PC and on a Mac, same problem.
Update: I know android studio and I've used it alot. Let's just say I have my reasons to pick up eclipse and make it work again.
It can be solved by turn off lint error check.
Click Window in Eclipse, select Preferences. Select Android -> Lint Error Checking on the left, and uncheck following checkboxes:
1.Run full error check when exporting app and abort if errors are found 2.When saving file check for error
For ref please check the screenshot I have attached:

Cannot start Android Studio. Android Studio stuck at the splash screen

I am not able to start the android studio. I have set java path in environment variables and Android studio is also latest version. I have tried to install and run administrator but no help.
Please help me...
Open file Android Studio setup directory/bin/idea.properties
Add disable.android.first.run=true to tail
Restart AS.
Going through the Known issues page(https://developer.android.com/studio/known-issues) found me the fix.
You have to set these additional PATHs
ANDROID_HOME = your SDK directory (android-sdk)
PATH=%PATH%;%ANDROID_HOME%\tools;%ANDROID_HOME%\platform-tools
Actual Solution
None of the answers here specify on how to debug the problem, you need to run the bin\studio.bat script in the terminal and inspect the actual Idea exceptions in order to fix the problem.
No need to re-install, delete precious configuration (and plugins, etc.). Just read the error message!
For me, this was the issue:
ERROR - llij.ide.plugins.PluginManager - java.net.BindException: Address already in use: bind
java.util.concurrent.CompletionException: java.net.BindException: Address already in use: bind
This means the plugin manager is trying to listen on a port that is not available. Is something listening on that port? For me, it is the stupid "excluded ports" by Windows, so I simply stopped the service:
net stop winnat (as administrator), and confirmed that Android Studio started to work.
Don't delete your configuration files, especially if you don't want to re-configure your settings. Just read the log provided by the bin\studio.bat script.
As of January 2016, the most recent canary needs the property written as as:
-Ddisable.android.first.run=true
otherwise it complains about missing JAVA_HOME. (using windows 10)
Fixed mine android studio by changing the system language, you can set yours to English go to Control Panel->Region under formats tab change the format to English(United states).
I had the same issue, I fixed it by changing the system language. Set your language to English by going to the Control Panel/Region. In the Formats tab change the format to English(United states).
I upgraded my Android Studio from 3.0 to 4.1 and after that AS always stuck on the splash screen. Fortunately, this section of the known-issues works for me https://developer.android.com/studio/known-issues#studio-config-directories

Thanks #ravi this also worked for me
As of March 2022, I was stuck in the splash screen was due to a plug-in conflict, but the IDE wasn't warning about it.
I received a warning balloon saying that I had the ExcelReader plug-in installed, suggesting me to install the new ExcelEditor plug-in, which is an improved (and paid ¬¬) version (I knew later). So I went and installed it and the IDE suggested restarting.
After restarting, the IDE always got stuck in the splash screen every single time I tried to launch it.
It wasn't until an hour later and so many launch attempts that, miraculously, the IDE launched and a dialog showed up warning about both plug-ins being not compatible so I had to disable one of them. It was a shame that it didn't warn me before. So I chose which one to disable on the dialog and it worked again.
Therefore, I suppose that if this were to happen again, it could be solved by editing the file /home/$USER/.config/Google/AndroidStudio2021.1/disabled_plugins.txt and adding the plug-in to the file manually.
In my case it was "com.chesterccw.excelreader" what I should have added. After that, of course, I uninstalled one of the plug-ins.
Studio doesn't start after upgrade
If Studio doesn't start after an upgrade, the problem may be due to an invalid Android Studio configuration imported from a previous version of Android Studio or an incompatible plugin. As a workaround, try deleting (or renaming, for backup purposes) the directory below, depending on the Android Studio version and operating system, and start Android Studio again. This will reset Android Studio to its default state, with all third-party plugins removed.
For Android Studio 4.1 and later:
Windows: %APPDATA%\Google\AndroidStudio<version>
Example: C:\Users\your_user_name\AppData\Roaming\Google\AndroidStudio4.1
macOS: ~/Library/Application Support/Google/AndroidStudio<version>
Example: ~/Library/Application Support/Google/AndroidStudio4.1
Linux: ~/.config/Google/AndroidStudio<version> and ~/.local/share/Google/AndroidStudio<version>
Example: ~/.config/Google/AndroidStudio4.1 and ~/.local/share/Google/AndroidStudio4.1
For Android Studio 4.0 and earlier:
Windows: %HOMEPATH%\.AndroidStudio<version>\config
Example: C:\Users\your_user_name\.AndroidStudio3.6\config
macOS: ~/Library/Preferences/AndroidStudio<version>
Example: ~/Library/Preferences/AndroidStudio3.6
Linux: ~/.AndroidStudio<version>/config
Example: ~/.AndroidStudio3.6/config
Note that the configuration directory for Canary and Beta releases of Android Studio is PreviewX.Y instead of X.Y for the . For example, Android Studio 4.1 Canary builds use AndroidStudioPreview4.1, instead of the AndroidStudio4.1 directory that is used for Release Candidates and Stable releases.

just add this line disable.android.first.run=true at the bottom of the idea.properties file in the bin directory of the installation folder

Android Studio freezes on startup

I searched all day but haven't find a solution yet.
Today I installed Android Studio without any problems.
I added the correct path.
JAVA_HOME to C:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.8.0_20
and
JDK_HOME to C:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.8.0_20
But, when I start the program it freezes on the loading screen. (The gray picture with the green android logo and text Android Studio)
It does create a process that I can't close, but after waiting for 20 minutes it's still on that screen.
I tried a clean install, also I tried the 32bit version without any success because it complained about the jvm that I could not fix for some reason.
I also did an update for it, but without success.
I have no idea what else I can try to fix this, but I also don't see myself going back to eclipse.
What worked for me was to disconnect my android phone which was connected to the computer(in the debugging mode).
I went from 1.5 to 2.0 and after updating it wouldn't load (hung at the startup screen). I had to delete the .android folder, the android.15 folder and the .AndroidStudioPreview2.0 folder under user. I also had to rename the SDK folder and after it started up I rename it back to what it was. Which means I had to add the path back to android studio. This was the only way I got it to work.
The same issue. "Run as administrator" helped me.
Another possible solution comes from JLund (from the comments):
I did this from the command line:
adb kill-server
adb start-server
and that unfroze Android Studio at startup for me.
Make sure there is no ANDROID_SDK_HOME, ANDROID_HOME or the like defined as you environment variable. You might need to uninstall any Android SDK previously installed manually after removing those environment variable.
My Android Studio auto loads the last worked-on project.
I cancelled the loading project before the IDE hung.
The Android Studio launcher comes up. Select the "Open an existing..." option.
Windows 10
Java 1.8.0_131
Android Studio 3.2.1
Android Studio kept getting hung up on a white screen before the IDE loaded any buttons. I renamed the project that it was trying to load, restarted Android Studio, and selected another project and it loaded correctly.
I had to revamp all manually installed 'HOME' environments and start it again-

Starting Android Learning

Recently i've started android training, and i've got the below 2 issues.
In my desktop i already had eclipse installed, and when trying to import the android plugins, I was getting some error, so what i did was downloaded eclipse+android package from android developers website and I copied it onto my programs files folder where java is installed and when i open it, it is throwing me an error saying the javaw is not found, goinf through the earlier posts on SO website, i've tried the below.
-vm
\adding the java path
But this didn't work for me. so what i did was installed the same package in my laptop(there is no another eclipse on my laptop). and it started working fine.
On my laptop in the eclipse+android package i write a program and when i hit the Android virtual device manager, it asks me to create a AVD, and when i've filled the entire data here, the OK button is still greyed out. Below is the screenshot.
Also i've tried to create by creating from Device definition,even here i'm not getting the ok button hoghlighted and below is its screenshot
please let me know how can i fix the above issues.
Thanks
Firstly you need not wonder for such a mess ..
For IDE purpose .. go to this link .. https://developer.android.com/sdk/installing/studio.html
Android Studio IDE contains all you need .. Just download ..extract and start creating your first Android project.
And now for tutorials to learn .. try these site ..
(1) https://buckysroom.org/videos.php?cat=6 ( Travis ... provide best tutorial in this world )
(2) https://developer.android.com/index.html
Now you are good to go ..
You can see it clearly says: "CPU/ABI: No system images installed for this target"
So either:
Lower your target.
Update your SDK.
Then set a CPU and you can go on in the AVD creation process.
update the sdk, install ARM/intel(x86) for CPU/ABI
Try using Android Studio by IntelliJ ,as it is for more better than eclipse and moreover ADT plugin for Eclipse is no longer in active development.
if you then also get the same error again try this link android Developer and setup java environment.

Android studio isn't opening on Windows

I just downloaded and installed Android Studio. For whatever reason, it won't open. I've tried running it as administrator, but that doesn't seem to work either. I've also tried uninstalling and reinstalling, but I'm still having this same problem.
On windows open task manager and check if android studio is there.
End the task and start the app again it works like a charm
Figured it out! I'm sure someone will run into this in the future, so here goes.
Even though it found my JDK during installation, it wasn't able to find it when I was trying to open it, for some reason. Simple fix. Add a JDK_HOME environment variable to your system variables. It should contain the path to your JDK's ROOT directory. i.e. c:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.7.0_21\
For me this technique works
Hover on icon, then hover on app
Press right click and select maximize
This link http://tools.android.com/knownissues lists another cause for the launcher malfunctioning.
I quote the link here:
"
On some systems the launcher script does not find where Java is installed. Workaround is to set a variable indicating the location of Java [b/55281]:
Open Start menu > computer > System Properties > Advanced System Properties
In the Advanced tab > Environment Variables, add new system variable JAVA_HOME that points to your JDK folder, for example C:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.7.0_21.
Another issue we found is that the launcher script uses an option that is unknown to Java on some system [b/55267]
Open the installation folder of Android Studio (e.g. C:\Programs Files\Android\android-studio, or C:\Users\\AppData\Local\Android\android-studio) and find the "bin" directory in there.
Open a "cmd.exe" (command prompt), cd to the android-studio\bin folder and run "studio.bat". You will most likely see an error: for example b/55267 is about the option -XX:+UseCodeCacheFlushing not being recognized. Report the error, remove the line from the studio.exe.vmoptions or studio64.exe.vmoptions and it should now work.
Apologies for this weak launcher."
OS: Windows 10 64bit
Need to delete below folder and try launch Android Studio again.
C:\Users\your_user_name\AppData\Roaming\Google\AndroidStudio4.1
Source: developer android
I am Installing Android Studio 4.1.1 in my Windows 10 and trying to open as normal as well run as administration both ways but did not open as regular.
When I saw in Task Manager then it was run as a background process then simply I was Endtask it in that background process and re-open. It works for me...!!!
Just add a JDK_HOME variable with the path of your JDK as value and start the IDE again. That's the only thing to do, hope this closes the other questions.
Windows 7 user:
I tried all the above ideas ( adding JDK_HOME, JAVA_HOME environment variables), but the final trick was to run as admin.
If that fails, try "where java" in cmd.exe.
If it lists c:\system32\java.exe first, then rename the file.
(i) Open the folder where android-studio is installed. (C:\Program Files (x86)\Android\android-studio)
(ii)- Right click on the android-studio folder and scroll to properties.
(iii)While in Properties window, click on Security.
(iv)Click the Edit Button
(v) Select User/Admin...or others
(vi)Check "Allow" in front of "Full control"
(vii) Either Apply or Press OK
....At this point you have to wait for it to install....Enjoy!!!
And I use Window 8...!!! So same thing applies to Window 7...wonder why the security on it...
I am on Windows 8 64 bit machine.
I already had JDK installed and jdk.1.7.0 folder was present in C:\Program Files\Java. But path for that folder didn't work. You must have jdk.1.7.xxx folder present on your machine and give that folder as JDK_HOME in Environment variable.
You can take latest JDK version from here
Make sure to choose Windows x64 version. Install JDK and then set your path. For those who are not sure how to set path in Windows 8, I have got following screenshots.
Go to bottom right corner. Click on Settings. Click on PC Info.
Click on Advanced System Setting link on left side.
Click on Environment Variables button. A Winodw will open with 2 listboxes. Click on New button below System variables listbox. New Window will pop up. Provide name as JDK_HOME and path as your path like "C:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.7.0_55". No need to take bin folder into the path.
None of the above mentioned solution worked for me. And there is no studio.bat file in bin directory.
So, I downloaded a 32-bit android-studio for my system (as it is 32bit) from here (official website) and it worked!
PS: The link might be broken in the future, just google for the 32 bit android studio.
(After wasting half a day on it, finally, I got it running)
I am running it on Windows 8.1. Also, I had JDK 1.7.0_13.
I tried the following:
Open Start menu > Computer > System Properties > Advanced System Properties In the Advanced tab > Environment Variables
Add new system variable JAVA_HOME that points to JDK folder, C:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.7.0_13\
Just to be on the safer side, also add new system variable JDK_HOME that points to JDK folder, for example, C:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.7.0_13\
Append new PATH in system variable that points to JDK folder, C:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.7.0_13\
But still it didn't work. Then it struck me that might be, my Java version is old. I downloaded the latest version from here.
I uninstalled JDK 1.7.0_13 and installed version 8 i.e. JDK 1.8.0_131.
Now do all the above steps but, replace the path with C:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.8.0_131\ OR whichever your latest version is.
Success!! Now it works.
In my case, I have existing projects and during trying the opening Android Studio, it just showed me the name of the project.
The thing I did was changing the name of that project and forcing Android Studio to ask me to choose which project at the beginning.
In my case, it was a windows related bug. Android Studio was configured properly and working like a charm, but it was opening in the second disconnected windows.
My solution was to press [Win] + Tab and then choose Android Studio on half of the screen so that it readjusts. Finally, I maximized it and it opened it in the correct screen.
I was able to resolve the same issue by refer to the solution provided in Android Developer Portal,
Studio doesn't start after upgrade
If Studio doesn't start after an upgrade, the problem may be due to an invalid Android Studio configuration imported from a previous version of Android Studio or an incompatible plugin. As a workaround, try deleting (or renaming, for backup purposes) the directory below, depending on the Android Studio version and operating system, and start Android Studio again. This will reset Android Studio to its default state, with all third-party plugins removed.
For Android Studio 4.1 and later:
Windows: %APPDATA%\Google\AndroidStudio Example: C:\Users\your_user_name\AppData\Roaming\Google\AndroidStudio4.1
macOS: ~/Library/Application Support/Google/AndroidStudio Example: ~/Library/Application Support/Google/AndroidStudio4.1
Linux: ~/.config/Google/AndroidStudio and ~/.local/share/Google/AndroidStudio Example: ~/.config/Google/AndroidStudio4.1 and ~/.local/share/Google/AndroidStudio4.1
In my case executing these in the command line worked after ending the Android Studio process in the task manager:
net stop winnat
net start winnat
Check the log file in :
C:\Users\<yourid>\.AndroidStudio<version>\system\log\idea.log
It might give you some clue.
You don't have to reinstall the Android Studio. In my case, I just deleted "C:\Users\User.AndroidStudio3.5" folder. Then Android Studio is opened. The folder contains just personel settings such as your ide theme darcula etc.
I invalidated cache and restartI deleted the Android studio version folder which was C:\Users\User.AndroidStudio3.5 for me and it worked like charm.
What worked for me was simply rebooting the computer. I'm certain that logging off and logging in will work to so the environment variables can refresh on profile level after installation.
Change the JAVA_HOME system environment variable to C:\Program Files\Android\Android Studio\jre
The direct path to installed java may not work sometimes due to version conflict.
I had Android studio crash on my machine crying about ram. Then it just wouldn't start again. Restarting th ecomputer wouldn't help and I know it has nothing to do with Java.
What ended up fixing it was runing Android Studio trough the Start Menu, or the instalation folder and not the pinned icon ...
Make sure you are not using two Languages (Hindi + English) as input method because android studio install required some time stamp and suppose you are using Hindi language that time and letters will not match at the time of opening
Solution is - select primary Language as English while installing Android Studio.
To change steps
press Windows
search word language
remove Hindi Language
then install Android Studio
I edited studio.bat file.
I added actual jdk placement to SET JDK= line at the beginning of file:
SET JDK=C:\\\Program Files\\\Java\\\jdk1.8.0_151
You must upgrade to 4.0.1 version!
The same problem happened with me. Actually my C drive wasn't full still I wanted to install android studio in D drive. The problem was resolved when I deleted it and again installed android studio.
Install it in C drive (You don't have to do anything for that. Actually, just click next...next.. next.. while installing and you are done.
)
Zuhair Naqi's solution is good, but in my case I don't have the option to maximize. So I found another method, because in my case the Android Studio (Bumblebee) does not open every time the windows was updated.
Select right click on the android studio icon, and open some recent project.
A new window will open with the recent project correctly.
You close the window that you couldn't see, and from there you can open projects normally.
I was able to solve it by going to control panel and uninstalling android studio, then restarting the computer so that any running instances would close. Next I deleted the folder
C:\Program Files\Android\Android Studio
Re-installed everything, and everything was working fine.
