    text
    copied!<p>I've been following the instructions here - I want to build the helloworld.apk, and generally get started with Android/Maven development.</p> <p><a href="https://github.com/akquinet/android-archetypes/wiki" rel="nofollow">https://github.com/akquinet/android-archetypes/wiki</a></p> <p>Any time I try to compile I get the following error message:</p> <pre><code>Embedded error: ANDROID-040-001: Could not execute: Command = /bin/sh -c cd /home/sal/workspace/foo5 &amp;&amp; /home/sal/opt/android-sdk-linux_x86/platforms/android-8/tools/aapt/package -m -J /home/sal/workspace/foo5/target/generated-sources/r -M /home/sal/workspace/foo5/AndroidManifest.xml -S /home/sal/workspace/foo5/target/generated-sources/combined-resources/res -I /home/sal/opt/android-sdk-linux_x86/platforms/android-8/android.jar, Result = 127 [INFO] ------------------------------------------------------------------------ </code></pre> <p>It's looking for the aapt utility in an obsolete location. I seem to remember that older versions of the Android SDK had a tools directory for each platform available. This was changed so that there's a sharared tools and platform-tools folder. </p> <p>How do I make maven use the correct folders. </p> <p>One solution is simply to copy all the tools into one messy folder, but surely there's a more elegant way of doing this?</p> <p>Update 0: I already have the SDK path set...</p> <pre><code>&lt;properties&gt; &lt;outputDirectory&gt;target/classes&lt;/outputDirectory&gt; &lt;!-- Path to the sdk in the file system --&gt; &lt;sdkPath&gt;/home/sal/opt/android-sdk-linux_x86&lt;/sdkPath&gt; &lt;/properties&gt; </code></pre>
