Installing Android SDK?!

Monkey Targets Forums/Android/Installing Android SDK?!

Ok, I give up. I have no idea how to get this stupid installation working.

Everytime I try to install the "installer_r11-windows.exe" it just tells me that the java sdk is not installed on my system and to install it. I now have java installed five times on my machine and it still won't detect it on my system.



C:\Program Files\Java\j2re1.4.2
C:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.6.0_21
C:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.7.0
C:\Program Files\Java\jre6
C:\Program Files\Java\jre7

How is everyone else managing to do this seemingly simplest of tasks?

There's a bug in the Android installation. When you get the "JDK Not Found" error click the back button and then go forward again.

Same here. Here's what I think of Google (with the swear words removed, obviously).

Oops. Yes Google..

This problem should probably be reported as a sticky in the Android forum!

just unpack the SDK and set proper path in monkey that is all (at least)
