everything fine...until [2011-06-27 07:45:47 - HelloWorld14] Automatic Target Mode: Preferred AVD 'my_avd' is not available. Launching new emulator. [2011-06-27 07:45:47 - HelloWorld14] Launching a new emulator with Virtual Device 'my_avd' [2011-06-27 07:45:49 - Emulator] emulator: ERROR: unknown virtual device name: 'my_avd' [2011-06-27 07:45:49 - Emulator] emulator: could not find virtual device named 'my_avd' tried a few things: building avd 'in' eclipse building avd outside of eclipse setting ANDROID_SDK_HOME to C:/Program Files/Android/android-sdk then tried C:/Program Files/Android/android-sdk/tools (and... per suggestions from earlier posts...setting to any and every of the following directories..) C:/documents and settings/username C:/documents and settings/username/.android C:/documents and settings/username/.android/avd/my_avd.avd I have tried moving the .android (coping) directory to (Location where it is placed on my windows 7 box) C:/User/username C:/ even to the tools directory from which i manually ran the emulator and any directory at all that might be labeled under username I have searched (via set) the command to find anyother directory the emulator might be looking for. (past posts have indicated this...) it appears to be putting it in the correct place .... no place to set a link to (that i can think of) I also noticed issues with a virtual disk assigned (this has been described as disk 'S' in some cases) - no evidence of this but i have also tried to set the emulator to look for an 's' directory for the same above mentioned directory locations. I have copied .android to anything reasonable: C:\ C:\Documents and settings\<any and every username> C:\...sdk tools I have set paths to the .android locations under username (not just mine but administration, anywhere..) I have also verified the avd from the manual tools - it exists and looks fine I have examined the config created by the avd - does not appear to have anything askew. I get the 'not find virtual device' from the tool directory (running this manually ) as well as from eclipse Tried package updates , going under AVD / SDK manager - accepting any and all tool upgades I have it running successfully on windows 7 , but not on windows XP (where i am working). I have verified the versions per android tool that the created avd is set to the level created in the project. any help would be appreciated - i have worked through all posted suggestions that i can find. thanks! -d. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Android Developers" group.
