AOSP cuttlefish does not run local images

[droidpoe]

I have followed the instructions provided here https://source.android.com/setup/build/building and the build (compilation) went without any issues.

However, while trying to run cuttlefish using the command,

acloud create --local-instance  --local-image

I get unexpected behaviour (i.e., the cuttlefish is not running), Digging through the logs, the following part seems to be problem.

assemble_cvd  fetcher_config.cpp:212] Could not find file ending in kernel
assemble_cvd  fetcher_config.cpp:212] Could not find file ending in initramfs.img
assemble_cvd Launching CVD using --config='phone'.

At the point of failure, the program is using the following arguments

file: out/soong/host/linux-x86/launcher_pseudo_fetcher_config.json

suffix: kernel

file: out/soong/host/linux-x86/launcher_pseudo_fetcher_config.json

suffix: initramfs.img

Does anybody else have faced similar issue and could you help me figure out how to overcome this issue?

Thanks,
