问题
I'm trying to use the Android Emulator on Jenkins to build and test my project. But I'm getting an the following error when running my gradle tasks;
failed to find Build Tools revision 17.0.0
the gradle task I'm running is;
./gradlew clean connectedCheck
in my gradle build file I has the following configuration
android {
compileSdkVersion 17
buildToolsVersion "17.0.0"
defaultConfig {
minSdkVersion 7
targetSdkVersion 17
}
}
The build server is a headless Ubuntu instance (12 something). My first thought was that I didn't have the correct build tools installed so I had a look in my android-sdk/build-tools director. All I could see was a directory called 18.1.1. So I thought if I updated my android sdk it would download version 17.0.0. So I ran the following command:
android update sdk --no-ui
and it seems to download various many things but looking in the build tools directory again I still only see version 18.1.1.
So questions are:
1) Am I right in assuming the build is failing because I don't have the correct build tools revision in my android sdk directory? (/android-sdk/build-tools)
2) How do I update the build-tools on a headless server so that I have version 17.0.0?
If you need me to provide more information, please let me know.
Thanks in advance for you help.

By default, android update sdk (or android list sdk --extended) only lists the packages which aren't considered deprecated.
As Build Tools 17.0.0 is a comparatively old version, it won't be shown by default.
Running with the -a (--all) flag will get you the older versions, e.g.:android update sdk -u -a -t build-tools-17.0.0
At some point in the future the Jenkins plugin should automatically install the correct build tools for you, based on your build.gradle file.
Edit (Nov 2015): This functionality probably will not be added to the Android Emulator plugin.
Nowadays I would recommend using the android-sdk-manager Gradle plugin, which automates the installation of all prerequisites for a Jenkins build, including Android SDK, tools, build-tools, platforms, support libraries etc.
This can be very easily integrated into your project, and removes the need to keep the Android SDK installation on your Jenkins build machines up-to-date.

Other way to do it, is manually update for the missing version using Android SDK Manager attached to Jenkins (Look for Configuration: ANDROID_SDK, then under it access "tools/android.sh")
