visual studio android emulator install google service error "cp: /data/local/tmp/.flash_tmp/system/*: No such file or directory"

Question

I am trying to install google play service to visual studio emulator. After drag & drop the zip file to the emulator, the installation failed with message in the log file "cp: /data/local/tmp/.flash_tmp/system/*: No such file or directory".

The same error occurred with simply drag & drop the zip file to the emulator or manual adb install. Both Kitkat & Marshmallow VM (using zip for the corresponding android version) got the same error too.

Is there any thing missing in my visual studio installation?

Emulator screen

The error log:

Answer 1

you should download the right package for your emulator , i had the same solution , i tried to install open_gapps-arm64-6.0-mini.zip – and open_gapps-arm-6.0-mini.zip but none of these installed , downloaded gapps-600-base-20151016-1-signed.zip ( http://www.devfiles.co/download/m4Er5IlQ/gapps-600-base-20151016-1-signed.zip ) and it worked via drag and drop .

check for right version in here : http://www.teamandroid.com/gapps/

Answer 2

Found a solution. The file downloaded from opengapps worked in other vm but not the visual studio emulator. File from http://www.teamandroid.com/gapps/ works.
