Android installation - sdk manager.exe does not work

Tags:

android

I installed the android SDK from developer.android.com for Windows (installer_r08-windows.exe). I installed to the default location, C:\Program Files\Android\android-sdk-windows. When I try to run SDK Manager.exe, a console window briefly pops up, but disappears.. nothing else happens. If I try to run this from the command line, nothing happens, either (and no output).

I have JDK 1.6.0_20 installed, and JAVA_HOME environment variable points to this folder (C:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.6.0_20)

Help?

This solution worked for me (copied from this question here)

Step #1: Open up a command prompt.

Step #2: Use the cd command to move to wherever you installed your Android SDK.

Step #3: Run tools\android.

If that does not work, you should have information dumped to the command prompt that will help you diagnose your setup problem.

I Had the same problem. I had installed Java SDK 1.4 (which is not compatible) so I installed 1.6 and add dir to PATH variable and everything works.
