Appium - reset.sh fails with error on "buildAndroidBootstrap" task on Mac - android

There could be a problem with my configuration, but I cannot figure out what's wrong. I am trying to get appium set up on a Mac for automated testing.
I am running this command:
./reset.sh --android --verbose
I always fail on this step:
* Building Android bootstrap
Running "buildAndroidBootstrap" task
Fatal error: Error finding ant binary, is it on your path?
---- FAILURE: reset.sh exited with status 1 ----
My path is as follows:
# Android and appium config
export ANDROID_HOME=/usr/local/opt/android-sdk
export PATH=${PATH}:$ANDROID_HOME/tools:$ANDROID_HOME/platform-tools
What am I doing wrong? Is my path missing something crucial? Googling to try and find out what the ant library is hasn't yielded me much results - what is it? Any help appreciated.

Turns out ant is an apache tool, without which reset.sh will fail for Android. Installing ant with brew fixed the problem.

Android Build Tools installed at '/Applications/ADT/sdk/platform-tools'

I a m trying to run Android automation in Robot Framework using Appium but, the following error keeps showing up:
WebDriverException: Message: An unknown server-side error occurred while processing the command. Original error: Could not find 'adb' in ["/Applications/ADT/sdk/platform-tools/platform-tools/adb","/Applications/ADT/sdk/platform-tools/emulator/adb","/Applications/ADT/sdk/platform-tools/tools/adb","/Applications/ADT/sdk/platform-tools/tools/bin/adb"]. Do you have Android Build Tools installed at '/Applications/ADT/sdk/platform-tools'?
I have checked the installation in Android as well.
Any idea how to resolve this kind of issue?
Thank you very much.
I suspect your paths may not be set correctly. For reference, I have the following set in my bash profile:
export ANDROID_HOME=~/Library/Android/sdk
export PATH=$PATH:$ANDROID_HOME/tools:$ANDROID_HOME/tools/bin:$ANDROID_HOME/platform-tools
export JAVA_HOME=$(/usr/libexec/java_home)
export PATH=$PATH:$JAVA_HOME/bin

nativescript sample projects fail with error Command ant failed with exit code 1

I went through the setup steps - on mac - but the sample nativescript projects all fail with the same error.
"Command ant failed with exit code 1"
Here is the log trace:
https://gist.github.com/getsetbro/c0225e8fc493d57b3f64
Other info
Android Studio on this mac run projects fine in emulators and connected devices
The same projects run in ios emulator without errors.
I installed JDK 8, never had version 7 on this system.
I see the following error in the logs.
Cannot run program "/Users/sb/Documents/Dev/nativescript/test_nativescript/platforms/android/${aapt}"
I might be wrong but it seems aapt tool is missing from your $PATH environment variable. If this is the case, try adding <ANDROID_SDK_ROOT>/tools to $PATH

phonegap build problems (android)

When I try to build my app, using Linux ElementaryOS (Ubuntu 12.04 (I think?)) I get thousands of errors saying:
rm: could not remove file (code EACCESS)
The results of the following show:
$ phonegap -v
3.5.0-0.20.4
$ cordova -v
3.5.0-0.2.4
$ ant -v
Apache Ant(TM) version 1.8.2 compiled on December 3 2011
Trying the default build file: build.xml
Buildfile: build.xml does not exist!
Build failed
Any suggestions? I've been battling through several errors for about a week now :(
Thanks in advance!
Update
Update I just changes the permissions of platforms/android too 777 (not a great solution I know). It's now giving me the following:
[Error: An error occurred while listing Android targets] { [Error: /var/www/ppl/app/platforms/android/cordova/build: Command failed with exit code 2] code: 2 } –
Okay, after much pain and anguish... I figured it out.
1). I installed ANT after I installed ionic/cordova/phonegap etc, the best order to install everything in is, java, ant, then cordova/phonegap/ionic.
2). I'm using 64-bit Ubuntu, if you are using the same then you need to install several android 32-bit libs.
3). I deleted the entire project (apart from my css, added js files and my html templates), created a new one using $ ionic start test-app then I ran $ ionic platform add android then ran $ ionic run android and it worked.
4). Make sure your paths are correct in ~/.bashrc mine look as followed:
export PATH=$PATH:/home/ewan/adt-bundle/tools
export PATH=$PATH:/home/ewan/adt-bundle/platform-tools
Here's a video that helped me, especially with the 32-bit libs. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zEQIwKK7YjY
Don't give up, it's worth it in the end. Best of luck!

cygwin on windows does not recognize make -v not found

I'm following an android tutorial on ndk and I am trying to run the following command within cygwin
$make - v
but I get the following message:
bash: make: command not found
Can anyone help ?
Launch the setup. Search the packages for "make" and install them...
You should not use cygwin to run ndk-build in NDK version 6 and above. Use ndk-build.cmd from CMD prompt instead. Anyways, NDK contains its own rebuilt make executable on all platforms, which should be used with ndk build scripts.

Calabash-android : rake build error

I am new to calabash-android , i am getting the following error while executing "rake build " command .
C:\calabash-android\ruby-gem>rake build

(See full trace by running task with --trace)
These are the steps i have followed
git clone https://github.com/calabash/calabash-android.git
git submodule init
git submodule update
i used gem install popen4
but i again same error
Please help me .
Run the same command, adding --trace at the end, and then post the results, so we have more information available for debugging.
Also, have you tried gem update --system and then gem update popen4? This might solve any issues with the gem.
Why are you trying to build the calabash-android gem itself?
If you don't intend to modify it internally, just install it via gem install calabash-android and you're good to go!
