Android SDK installation doesn t find JDK

Question

I m trying to install the Android SDK on my Windows 7 x64 System     jdk-6u23-windows-x64 exe is installed  but the Android SDK setup refuses to proceed because it doesn t find the JDK installation   Is this a known issue  And is there a solution

User · Answer

The above methods did not work for me in Windows 8 Pro.

Just set the path to

C:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.7.0_07\

Where C is your drive in which you have installed the JDK.

Don't forget the backward slash at the end.

I had the same problem  tried all the solutions but nothing worked  The problem is with Windows 7 installed is 64 bit and all the software that you are installing should be 32 bit  Android SDK itself is 32 bit and it identifies only 32 bit JDK  So install following software    JDK  32 bit  Android SDK  while installing SDK  make sure install it in directory other than  C  Program Files  x86    more probably in other drive or in the directory where Eclipse is extracted  Eclipse  32 bit  and finally ADT    I tried it and all works fine

4 Different Solutions   1  If you get above screen  just click BACK button and from previous screen click NEXT button  Actually silly  but sounds good   2  Download SDK Manager  zip format instead of  exe and then try to install  It   s all so silly  but work like a charm   3  If you installed 64 bit JDK means  just uninstall that and install 32-bit JDK   4   You have to change that as following   JAVA HOME C  Program Files Java jdk1 8 0 11 JRE HOME C  Program Files Java jre8 Path  JAVA HOME  C

Actual SETUP    OS  Windows 8 1  JDK file  jdk-8u11-windows-x64 exe  ADT file  installer r23 0 2-windows exe   Install the x64 JDK  and try the back-next option first  and then try setting JAVA HOME like the error message says  but if that doesn t work for you either  then try this   Do as it says  set JAVA HOME in your environment variables  but in the path use forward slashes instead of backslashes   Seriously   For me it failed when JAVA HOME was C  Program Files Java jdk1 6 0 31 but worked fine when it was C  Program Files Java jdk1 6 0 31 - drove me nuts   If this is not enough  also add to the beginning of the Environment Variable Path   JAVA HOME    Updated values in System Environment Variables    JAVA HOME C  Program Files Java jdk1 8 0 11 JRE HOME C  Program Files Java jre8 Path  JAVA HOME  C

You might want to restart your machine  For me  without having to use forward slashes it worked after I restarted windows

None of the solutions here worked for the 64-bit version   Putting the JDK path before the c  windows system32  path in your environment variables solves the problem  Otherwise the 32-bit java exe is found before the 64-bit JDK version

Warning  As a commenter mentioned  don t try this on a Windows nbsp 7  I tested it with Windows nbsp XP 64 bit   As the posted solution does NOT work for all  including me  myself  and I   I want to leave a note for those seeking for another way  without registry hacking  etc   to solve this on a Windows 64 bit system  Just add PATH  capital letters    to your environment Variables and set the value to your JDK-Path   I added JDK to the existing  Path  which did not work  like it didn t with JAVA HOME or the  Back -Solution  Adding it to  PATH  finally did the trick   I hope this might be helpful for somebody

Windows 8 running the x64 SDK     Download the latest JDK from here  Oracle JDK Once downloaded and extracted go into the JDK file at C  Program Files Java jdk1 7 0 80 bin and double click on the java Application file  it s the only one called just java   This will briefly open the command line   Begin the process of installing Android Studio again  from scratch  It should automatically detect the SDK now     For whatever reason Android Studio wouldn t detect it no matter what I put in manually or searched using the browse option     Pressing back would not work    Reporting the error would not work   Adding JAVA HOME or other suggestions to the C     would not work    It was only beginning the installation of Android Studio again after running the java file that it worked

You will have to download the 32-bit SDK version because Win7 64-bit is not supported only Windows Server 2003 has a supported 64-bit version   During the download of Java SDK pick  Windows  as your platform and not  Windowsx64   Once I did this android SDK installed like a charm   Hope this helps

For Wine users     For reasons having to do with  unimplemented   as in  the  find  command and the   D  switch to  copy    it appears that you have to cheat a bit more to get Android SDK to see JDK in Wine   However  I have passed the hurdles and am  I suppose  obliged to share something  anything  that worked    What is responsible for finding Java is the script  tools lib find java bat   In the beginning of that file  add   set java exe  JAVA HOME  bin java exe    goto  EOF   To circumvent the  copy  D not implemented  issue  in  tools android bat  comment out  with  rem   the lines from just after    MkTempCopy   to just before   EndTempCopy   You should now  if you ve set JAVA HOME  be able to run android bat and install the SDK parts you need

I spent a little over an hour trying just about every option presented   I eventually figured out that I had a lot of stale entries for software that I had uninstalled   I deleted all the registry nodes that had any stale data  pointed to the wrong directory    This included the       HKEY LOCAL MACHINE SOFTWARE Wow6432Node JavaSoft Java Runtime   Environment    and      HKEY LOCAL MACHINE SOFTWARE JavaSoft Java Runtime Environment    entries as a JRE included in the JDK   I also got rid of all the JAVA entries in my environmental variables   I guess I blame it on bad uninstallers that do not clean up after themselves

All you need are the following two registry entries  It appears as if whoever posted the other registry stuff basically just copied all the keys from HKEY LOCAL MACHINE SOFTWARE JavaSoft into HKEY LOCAL MACHINE SOFTWARE Wow6432Node JavaSoft  which obviously isn t an ideal solution because most of the keys aren t needed    HKEY LOCAL MACHINE SOFTWARE Wow6432Node JavaSoft Java Development Kit   CurrentVersion   1 6    HKEY LOCAL MACHINE SOFTWARE Wow6432Node JavaSoft Java Development Kit 1 6   JavaHome   C   Program Files  Java  jdk1 6 0 23

Adding JAVA HOME environment variable  under System Variables  did the trick for me   Clicking  Back  and  Next  buttons didn t work   Windows 7 Professional x64  JDK 1 7 0 04  64 bit  I don t have x86 version installed   I think that installer tries to find JDK in specific  1 6   version and if it can t find it  checks JAVA HOME which was not set in my case  I have another computer  the same system but with JDK 1 6 x64  and it worked without JAVA HOME variable   You don t have to install 32 bit version of JDK
