Cannot run Android project

Question

I have been building my Android application for 2 years and I have never once had this problem until now.

When I load Eclipse, there is a little progress bar in the

Answer 1

Suddenly today I'm having the same issue, except I don't have a Android Library Update message, turning off internet also helped start the project for me:

I opened up WireShark to investigate why it was relying on an internet connection at startup and I found it was making some HTTP call to http://developer.android.com/reference/

Adding the following line to my /etc/hosts file allows me to start up the project with the internet on:

127.0.0.1       developer.android.com

Answer 2

The First thing I do is

• make sure you save your project and all it's resources in a different location to keep it safe if something goes wrong, this is a good idea in general (personally i use drop box so that even if something gets worse i can still recover it)

• Try closing eclipse and starting again, if you get the chance try it while plugged into your router with a Ethernet wire.

• Make sure to check that Eclipse is up to date so that there are definitively no conflicts.

• If this doesn't work try un-installing and re-installing eclipse.

good luck.

Answer 3

As far as I could tell, this solved the problem:

1. Disable internet connection. In my case, this simply meant turning off wireless.
2. Launch Eclipse. Everything will load fine.
3. Re-enable internet.
4. Close Eclipse.

Now opening Eclipse is fine.
