The SDK directory '/root/opt/android-sdk-linux' does not exist.

Hi All,

I am trying to android build  from jenkins server.

I have set the env varibles as below in /etc/profile and created a local.properties file the workspace .

export ANDROID_HOME="/root/opt/android-sdk-linux"

export PATH="$ANDROID_HOME/tools:$ANDROID_HOME/platform-tools:$PATH"

In local.properties file :

sdk.dir=/root/opt/android-sdk-linux

I can able to build from linux command line as ROOT user but not other users. And even cant able to build from jenkins server .

I configure env variables in jenkins configuration too.

It is not able to pick the sdk installation folder.

Error:

FAILURE: Build failed with an exception.

* What went wrong:
A problem occurred configuring project ':app'.
> The SDK directory '/root/opt/android-sdk-linux' does not exist.

* Try:
Run with --stacktrace option to get the stack trace. Run with --info or --debug option to get more log output.

Please help me on this ..

Thanks in advance .

Regards,

Pradeep

Hi Pradeep,

your SDK is the root's home directory, dude. Usually, the unix permissions[1] do not permit to access this directory for other users (check with ls -al /root ).
I would suggest to move the SDK to some other location on your filesystem (for example as /opt). Remember to adjust the environment variables accordingly and try again via the usual command line before running it in Jenkins.

Cheers,
Nico
