Android Studio error after ./studio.sh

Question

After ./studio.sh in a terminal I get this error \"tools.jar is not in android studio classpath Please ensure JAVA_HOME points to JDK rather than JRE\"

Answer 1

I solved this by installing the jdk. This sounds annoyingly simple but I missed it. I thought I Had installed the jdk, but I had actually installed the jre.

Wrong:

sudo apt-get install openjdk-7-jre

Right:

sudo apt-get install openjdk-7-jdk

As soon as I did that, it started up fine for me. The things we miss sometimes....
