android Failed to start emulator:Cannot run program

Question

I have installed android SDK and android eclipse plugin successfully on Ubuntu.

Every thing was working fine until I removed Ubuntu and installed Linux Mint. I installe

Answer 1

It looks like your SDK path in eclipse has a mistake:

Cannot run program "/home/anas/android//tools/emulator"

That double "//" may be the problem. Check in Eclipse: Window -> Preferences -> Android. There should be a field there pointing the SDK Location. Edit it.

Check your path : /home/anas/android/ to see if it really is where you put your SDK . If not repeat these steps to have it

The missing R resource message is a compile error right? Then in this case your emulator should not be the problem. However, if your SDK path is incorrect like I suspect, then .. you can expect this compile error along with any other android libraries import

Answer 2

I used the command-line tool android (android avd), and used Tools->Manage SDK to install 64 bit emulators. I then mv'ed emulator to emulator.old, and emulator64-arm to emulator. Now the AVD starts up.

Answer 3

1. Installed on Ubuntu successfully. but not running avd

   If you're running a 64-bit system, you need to install ia32-libs

  sudo apt-get install ia32-libs

1. R can not be resolved to a variable

This can be due to following Reason

• class is not the part of that package add proper package

• not properly defined in manifest file class path define it properly

clear and run the avd it will work

Answer 4

This is sorted by running this on Ubuntu.

sudo cp ~/Android/Sdk/platform-tools/adb /usr/bin/adb

Refer this: Can't connect to emulator through ADB genymotion

Answer 5

Like you have written the specified path and the files are exists in the same path, but i suggest to check that one more time.

and like you are getting R cannot be resolved to a variable, do not worry:

Reasons:

1. Check Package name in Manifest File
2. If you are already getting something like this: import com.version.bajrang.january.R; so first of all try to change package name here, or secondly just delete this line and clean your program
3. If you are not getting something like: import com.version.bajrang.january.R; then add import packagename.R;

I believe that you will get your answer.....

Answer 6

I solved it doing a backup of the "emulator" and creating a symbolic link to the correct emulator:

mv emulator emulator_bup
ln -s emulator64-arm emulator
