I have meteor project and I try to start it on my mobile device. It starts successfully if I run project on my windows pc and I'm getting this error(error in title) when I try to start it in my linux(ubuntu) pc. Did everything from mobile tutorial on official site of meteor and still can't start a project. I saw a lot of almost the same questions but they hadn't correct answers for me.
Try run your this command in your terminal:
echo $ANDROID_HOME
it should return something like this
/home/ivan133/Android/Sdk
If it returns empty string execute these commands and build again
export ANDROID_HOME=${HOME}/Android/Sdk
export PATH=${PATH}:${ANDROID_HOME}/tools
export PATH=${PATH}:${ANDROID_HOME}/platform-tools
Next, it would be nice to add it to your ./bashrc (if you're using bash)
Just open ~/.bashrc with text editor and copy the strings to the end
I had followed the above instructions to no avail. Realized the /tools folder was somehow missing from the /sdk folder. Also it's sdk not Sdk for me.
Complete instructions:
Double check where your sdk folder is. Should be something like:
/User/example-user/Library/Android/sdk
Visit https://developer.android.com/studio?pkg=tools and download the SDK tools package
Extract the contents of that. Should result in a directory named tools
run open /User/example-user/Library/Android/sdk
Place the tools folder into /sdk (so just to be clear, it will be at /User/example-user/Library/Android/sdk/tools
You can then do the following:
export ANDROID_HOME=${HOME}/Android/sdk
export PATH=${PATH}:${ANDROID_HOME}/tools
export PATH=${PATH}:${ANDROID_HOME}/platform-tools
meteor remove-platform android
meteor add-platform android
To check the environment variables first
env
If env variable not available means open or create .zprofile or .zshrc file in your HOME folder.
touch ~/.zprofile; open ~/.zprofile
or
touch ~/.zshrc; open ~/.zshrc
Added these lines
export ANDROID_HOME=${HOME}/Library/Android/sdk
export ANDROID_SDK_ROOT=${HOME}/Library/Android/sdk
export PATH=${PATH}:${ANDROID_HOME}/tools
export PATH=${PATH}:${ANDROID_HOME}/platform-tools
After added that variable and run this below comment
source ~/.zprofile
or
source ~/.zshrc
and it started to work
Now again to verify to type comment line
env
Check the env variable availability
I added these lines
export ANDROID_HOME=${HOME}/Android/Sdk
export PATH=${PATH}:${ANDROID_HOME}/tools
export PATH=${PATH}:${ANDROID_HOME}/platform-tools
to ~/.zshrc file
and it started to work
I am trying to setup android linphone project on Window and most of the things I have done. I set environment variable path(system and user) and export path in .bashrc and .bash_profile file which is located in cygwin home directory.
export PATH=${PATH}:/D:/android-sdk/tools
export PATH=${PATH}:/D:/android-sdk/platform-tools
export PATH=${PATH}:/D:/android-sdk/ndk-bundle
export PATH=${PATH}:/D:/android-sdk
export PATH=${PATH}:/C:/apache-ant-1.9.6-bin/apache-ant-1.9.6/bin
export PATH=${PATH}:/D:/android-sdk/android-ndk-r10e
Now when I am running make command on cygwin command prompt in android Linphone directory than I am getting this error: "Could not find android. Please install android SDK."
How can I resolve this issue?
Please note that : is both the linux path delimiter and the windows drive indicator. Your
export PATH=${PATH}:/D:/android-sdk/tools
adds two directories to the path, /D and /android-sdk/tools.
Try /cygdrive/d/ instead of /D:.
I am getting this error in terminal when attempting to execute this command:
$ cordova platform add android
I read these answers here:
Error: ANDROID_HOME is not set and "android" command not in your PATH. You must fulfill at least one of these conditions
ANDROID_HOME is not set and "android" command not in your PATH Phonegap
however I don't know where to place the code they provide.
I am running OS X.
Option 1
for windows
Right click on My computer -> properties -> Advanced system setting -> Environment Variables
Now Edit Path on system variables to
;/yourSdkHome/tools;/youSdkHome/platform-tools
Option 2
In Windows machine, Open Command prompt and enter each of this commands one by one
set ANDROID_HOME=**C:\\android-sdk-windows**
set PATH=%PATH%;%ANDROID_HOME%\tools;%ANDROID_HOME%\platform-tools
In MAC Machine, open Terminal and enter these one by one
export ANDROID_HOME=/<installation location>/android-sdk-macosx
export PATH=${PATH}:$ANDROID_HOME/tools:$ANDROID_HOME/platform-tools
Note - C:\\android-sdk-windows should be replaced by the path of Android SDK in your machine.
<installation location> should be replaced by the path of Android SDK in your machine.
Example
in MAC machine, if install location is ~/adt-bundle-mac-x86_64/sdk
first line should be
export ANDROID_HOME=~/adt-bundle-mac-x86_64/sdk
How to set ANDROID_HOME path in ubuntu?
Please provide the steps.
In the console just type these :
export ANDROID_HOME=$HOME/Android/Sdk
export PATH=$PATH:$ANDROID_HOME/tools
If you want to make it permanent just add those lines in the ~/.bashrc file
I would like to share an answer that also demonstrates approach using the Android SDK provided by the Ubuntu repository:
Install Android SDK
sudo apt-get install android-sdk
Export environmental variables
export ANDROID_HOME="/usr/lib/android-sdk/"
export PATH="${PATH}:${ANDROID_HOME}tools/:${ANDROID_HOME}platform-tools/"
Assuming you have the sdk extracted at ~/Android/Sdk,
export ANDROID_HOME=$HOME/Android/Sdk
export PATH=$PATH:$ANDROID_HOME/tools
export PATH=$PATH:$ANDROID_HOME/platform-tools
Add the above lines to the file ~/.bashrc (located at home/username/.bashrc) to make it permanent for the current user. Run source ~/.bashrc to apply the changes or restart your terminal.
(or)
Run the above lines on a terminal window to make it available for the session.
To test if you have set it up correctly,
Run the below commands on a terminal window
echo $ANDROID_HOME
user#host:~$ echo $ANDROID_HOME
/home/<user>/Android/Sdk
which android
user#host:~$ which android
/home/<user>/Android/Sdk/tools/android
Run android on a terminal window, If it opens up Android SDK Manager, you are good to go.
better way is to reuse ANDROID_HOME variable in path variable. if your ANDROID_HOME variable changes you just have to make change at one place.
export ANDROID_HOME=/home/arshid/Android/Sdk
export PATH=$PATH:$ANDROID_HOME/tools:$ANDROID_HOME/platform-tools
Initially go to your home and press Ctrl + H it will show you hidden files now look for .bashrc file, open it with any text editor then place below lines at the end of file.
export ANDROID_HOME=/home/varun/Android/Sdk
export PATH=$PATH:/home/varun/Android/Sdk/tools
export PATH=$PATH:/home/varun/Android/Sdk/platform-tools
Please change /home/varun/Android/Sdk path to your SDK path.
Do the same for tools and platform-tools.
After this save .bashrc file and close it.
Now you are ready to use ADB commands on terminal.
Add the following to your ~/.bashrc file. Log-out and log-in. I have my sdk in $HOME/Documents/Android/sdk you have to replace it with where you keep your sdk folder
# Android Path
PATH=$PATH:$HOME/Documents/Android/sdk:$HOME/Documents/Android/sdk/tools
export PATH
# For SDK version r_08 and higher, also add this for adb:
PATH=$PATH:$HOME/Documents/Android/sdk/platform-tools
export PATH
first open the .bashrc file by gedit ~/.bashrc
# Added ANDROID_HOME variable.
export ANDROID_HOME=$HOME/Android/Sdk
export PATH=$PATH:$ANDROID_HOME/tools
export PATH=$PATH:$ANDROID_HOME/platform-tools
save the file and reopen the terminal
echo $ANDROID_HOME
it will show the path like /home/pathTo/Android/Sdk
Applies to Ubuntu and Linux Mint
In the archive:
sudo nano .bashrc
Add to the end:
export ANDROID_HOME=${HOME}/Android/Sdk
export PATH=${PATH}:${ANDROID_HOME}/platform-tools:${ANDROID_HOME}/tools
Restart the terminal and doing: echo $ HOME or $ PATH, you can know these variables.
Download the Android SDK to the machine. (Suppose that the location is /home/zelong/Android/Sdk) (home/username/Android/Sdk)
Add these lines to the file ~/.bashrc (located at home/username/.bashrc)
export ANDROID_HOME="/home/zelong/Android/Sdk"
export PATH=$PATH:$ANDROID_HOME/tools
export PATH=$PATH:$ANDROID_HOME/platform-tools
This will make it permanent for the current user because every time the machine boots, it will run this script and set the enviroment path.
After making this change, remember to save it.
Then run source ~/.bashrc to apply the changes or restart your terminal.
Test if it works:
zelong#zelong-ThinkPad-T430:~$ echo $ANDROID_HOME
/home/zelong/Android/Sdk
zelong#zelong-ThinkPad-T430:~$ which android
/home/zelong/Android/Sdk/tools/android
zelong#zelong-ThinkPad-T430:~$ which adb
/home/zelong/Android/Sdk/platform-tools/adb
As we can see,
android command line locates under tools
adb command line locates under platform-tools
This is what work for me,
Assuming you have the sdk extracted at ~/Android/Sdk,
export ANDROID_HOME=$HOME/Android/Sdk
export PATH=$PATH:$ANDROID_HOME/tools
export PATH=$PATH:$ANDROID_HOME/platform-tools
Add the above lines to the file ~/.bashrc (located at home/username/.bashrc) to make it permanent for the current user. Run source ~/.bashrc to apply the changes or restart your terminal.
(or)
Run the above lines on a terminal window to make it available for the session.
To test if you have set it up correctly,
Run the below commands on a terminal window
echo $ANDROID_HOME
user#host:~$ echo $ANDROID_HOME
You will get
/home/<user>/Android/Sdk
You can run this too
which android
user#host:~$ which android
/home/<user>/Android/Sdk/tools/android
Run android on a terminal, If it opens up Android SDK Manager, you are good to go.
you can edit the environment variable file in Ubuntu to set android home globally.
[1] run this command in terminal
sudo -H gedit /etc/environment
[2] your envirmnent file content will look like the below one
PATH="/usr/local/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin:/sbin:/bin:/usr/games:/usr/local/games"
[3] in environment file add android sdk path as follows:-
PATH="/usr/local/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin:/sbin:/bin:/usr/games:/usr/local/games"
ANDROID_HOME="/home/yourPathTo/Android/Sdk"
[4] then you can check the Android home path in the terminal with the following command:-
echo $ANDROID_HOME
If path is still not set then restart the system to get the applied changes.
In my case it works with a little change. Simply by putting :$PATH at the end.
# andorid paths
export ANDROID_HOME=$HOME/Android/Sdk
export PATH="$ANDROID_HOME/tools:$PATH"
export PATH="$ANDROID_HOME/platform-tools:$PATH"
export PATH="$ANDROID_HOME/emulator:$PATH"
In the terminal just type these 3 commands to set the ANDROID_HOME Variable :
$ export ANDROID_HOME=~/Android/Sdk
/Android/Sdk is the location of Sdk, this might get change in your case
$ PATH=$PATH:$ANDROID_HOME/tools
$ PATH=$PATH:$ANDROID_HOME/platform-tools `
Note : This will set the path temporarily so what ever action
you have to perform, perform on the same terminal.
If you run android with sudo it will install sdk in /root/Android/Sdk
so check if that is the case.
And if you are using dont run cordova with sudo it will look sdk in root also may be.
Above code for setting path is works fine.
I was facing the same problem with linux ANDROID_HOME path
Note:
1- Add parameters
2- Make or Rebuild project
3- Restart your PC
How to add parameters using terminal:
Open your terminal write
gedit .bashrc
another window will be open and then add the following lines at the end of the windows.
export ANDROID_HOME=$HOME/Android/Sdk
export PATH=$PATH:$ANDROID_HOME/tools
export PATH=$PATH:$ANDROID_HOME/platform-tools
then back to terminal and type
source .bashrc
to save your changes in bashrc file at the end restart your computer.
add to file
~/.profile
export ANDROID_HOME=/opt/android-sdk
Path to the SDK
Then reset the computer
Had the same issue,
in the terminal you can type:
export ANDROID_HOME=$HOME/Android/Sdk
or any other location depending on where you installed the sdk.
export PATH=$PATH:$ANDROID_HOME/platform-tools
Hope it helps!
sudo su -
gedit ~/.bashrc
export PATH=${PATH}:/your path
export PATH=${PATH}:/your path
export PATH=${PATH}:/opt/workspace/android/android-sdk-linux/tools
export PATH=${PATH}:/opt/workspace/android/android-sdk-linux/platform-tools
You can append this line at the end of .bashrc file-
export PATH=$PATH:"/opt/Android/Sdk/platform-tools/"
here /opt/Android/Sdk/platform-tools/ is installation directory of Sdk.
.bashrc file is located in home folder
vi ~/.bashrc
or if you have sublime installed
subl ~/.bashrc
open ~/.bashrc file and paste at the end
export PATH=$PATH{}:/path-from-home-dir/android/sdk/tools
export PATH=$PATH{}:/path-from-home-dir/android/sdk/platform-tools
I've been diving into Android development for a while, and now I want to use some project (helpshift) in my app. On the website they have some example apps in which the readme says: Run the following inside the /HelpshiftDemo folder.
android update project -t android-17 -p .
So I do this, but unfortunately this gives me an error saying -bash: android: command not found. I understand this, because "android" as such doesn't refer to anything on my laptop (Mac OSX). So I thought it is maybe referring to the adb. So I tried replacing android for the direct path to my adb:
/Users/kramer65/dev/adt-bundle-mac-x86_64-20130917/sdk/platform-tools/adb update project -t android-17 -p .
This gives me a humongous output with more information on adb, which is I guess not the expected result.
So my questions; what does android refer to, and how can I fix this on Mac OSX?
The android tool is located in the tools directory in your SDK. You need to add this to your PATH environment variable so that bash can recognize it.
You can do this by adding it to your PATH in your .bash_profile file. This file should be located in your home directory. Create if it doesn't exist using vi .bash_profile and add the following line to it:
export PATH=<path_to_android_sdk>/platform-tools:<path_to_android_sdk>/tools:$PATH
where <path_to_android_sdk> is to be replaced with the path to your SDK. For example: "/Users/me/android-sdk-mac_86/platform-tools"
Step 0
The first step is install Android SDK: https://developer.android.com/studio
I don't like the default configurations. I installed SDK in this folder:
/Users/<Username>/Android\ SDK
ℹ️ The default path is
$HOME/Library/Android/sdk
Step 1
The next command open your bash or zshrc configuration file:
Bash profile:
vim ~/.bash_profile
If you use zsh:
vim ~/.zshrc
Step 2
You're ready to update your configurations:
# File: .bash_profile | .zshrc
# Custom path to Android SDK folder.
# If you use the default configuration please change ANDROID_HOME to $HOME/Library/Android/sdk
export ANDROID_HOME=/Users/<Username>/Android\ SDK
export PATH=$ANDROID_HOME/tools:$PATH
export PATH=$ANDROID_HOME/platform-tools:$PATH
Step 3
Option 1:
Restart your terminal and you should be able to use android command
Option 2: source your bash or zsh profile.
Example: source ~/.bash_profile / source ~/.zshrc
I spent so much time trying to figure out, this steps helped me ( from http://docs.phonegap.com/en/2.2.0/guide_getting-started_android_index.md.html )
You need to execute your .bash_profile to update your PATH.
Set up your PATH environment variable on Mac OS
Open the Terminal program (this is in your Applications/Utilites folder by default).
Run the following command
touch ~/.bash_profile; open ~/.bash_profile
This will open the file in the your default text editor.
You need to add the path to your Android SDK platform-tools and tools directory. In my example I will use "/Development/android-sdk-macosx" as the directory the SDK is installed in. Add the following line:
export PATH=${PATH}:/Development/android-sdk-macosx/platform-tools:/Development/android-sdk-macosx/tools
Save the file and quit the text editor. Execute your .bash_profile to update your PATH:
source ~/.bash_profile
Now every time you open the Terminal program you PATH will included the Android SDK.
Problem Solved For Android Studio Users:
I am using Mac OS X Elcapitan version 10.11.X.
Under my home directory I found .bash_profile.save file. I opened that file using sublime (you can use any other editor). Then I added this line
export PATH=${PATH}:/Users/UserName/Library/Android/sdk/platform-tools:/Users/UserName/Library/Android/sdk/tools
Replace "UserName" with your UserName.
open terminal then run
source ~/.bash_profile
here you go.
First add these lines to your ~/.bashrc file:
export ANDROID_HOME=${HOME}/Library/Android/sdk
export PATH=${PATH}:${ANDROID_HOME}/tools
export PATH=${PATH}:${ANDROID_HOME}/platform-tools
then:
source ~/.bashrc
export PATH="/Users/me/Library/Android/sdk/platform-tools/":"/Users/me/Library/Android/sdk/tools/":$PATH
Worked for me
Add the following lines into ~/.bash_profile and source ~/.bash_profile
export ANDROID_HOME=/Users/macbook/Library/Android/sdk/
export PATH=$ANDROID_HOME/tools:$PATH
export PATH=$ANDROID_HOME/platform-tools:$PATH
This is working for me
Update the path.
Open the Terminal program from Spotlight. Run the following command:
touch ~/.bash_profile; open ~/.bash_profile
Then save following code
export PATH=${PATH}:/android-sdk-macosx/platform-tools:/Development/android-sdk-macosx/tools
For my case, path is
export PATH=/Users/<user-name>/Development/android-sdk-macosx/platform-tools:/Users/<user-name>/Development/android-sdk-macosx/tools:$PATH
Save the file and quit the text editor. Execute your .bash_profile to update your PATH:
source ~/.bash_profile
Then run adb.
This is the issue because of you didn't give proper android sdk path variable in .bash_profile. for this you must follow the below steps.
1. Check android sdk path: for this you should open android studio->preferences and click on Android SDK in newly open window in that look for Android SDK location textfield in that you can find path of Android SDK. For me it shows like: /Users/<your_name>/Library/Android/sdk. here <your_name> is name of your home directory.
2. Open your terminal enter cd ~ command.
3. and enter vi .bash_profile.
4. In vi editor enter following
export ANDROID_HOME=/Users/Murali/Library/Android/sdk
export PATH=$ANDROID_HOME/tools:$PATH
export PATH=$ANDROID_HOME/platform-tools:$PATH
Save it by press esc button and enter :wq.
5. After this close your terminal and open it again.
6. To apply all your changes in .bash_profile enter following command
source .bash_profile.
7. Enter android command. Hope this now working fine :-)
Update the path.
Open the Terminal program from Spotlight. Run the following command:
touch ~/.zshrc (or ~/.bash_profile) ; open ~/.zshrc (or ~/.bash_profile)
Then save following code
export AAPT_HOME=/Users/****/Library/Android/sdk/build-tools/31.0.0
export PATH=$PATH:$AAPT_HOME
Save the file and quit the text editor. Execute your .zshrc (or .bash_profile) to update your PATH:
source ~/.zshrc (or ~/.bash_profile)
