Treehouse TeacherGlad you got this working! Was this the Treehouse bundle? It's supposed to set that automatically for you, but it sounds like it may have failed. Would you mind replying with the path you used in the SDK location? Certain characters have been known to cause problems, and this is the best lead we've had on this problem so far.

763 PointsYes it was a treehouse bundle. My android SDK path is C:\android_dev\android_dev_environment\android-sdk-windows
default it is was like " ..\android-sdk-windows" when i first installed Treehouse bundle.

Treehouse TeacherThanks for the information! After you unzipped it, did you run the initial_setup script? If so, do you happen to remember if you had any errors or not?
