I recommend switching to the latest command line tools + Android SDK. This means that you need to download a new SDK. You can keep the previous one as well.

Instructions:

1. Download command line tools v6609375: https://developer.android.com/studio#command-tools
2. Unpack in C:\Android
3. Download additional resources: https://b4xfiles-4c17.kxcdn.com/b4a/resources_9_20.zip
4. Unpack in C:\Android. It should look like this:
   
   
   
   
   
   
5. Set android.jar path in the IDE to: C:\Android\platforms\android-30\android.jar
6. Note that you don't need to run B4A Sdk Manager at all. All the required components are included. If you do want to run the emulator then start Tools - B4A Sdk manager, install the recommended items and create a new AVD.

Tools - Configure Paths.

Note that the same Java versions are supported as before (8 - 14).

Follow the directions in the first post and you'll be fine. If not, reinstall everything from scratch.

I get this error with SDK and not able to resolve it.


Error in AVD Manager as well. I do not see emulator in the list?

Also, SDK missing Viewpager2 and Annotations. I searched for it and downloaded it-now ok

I am having the same problem. I tried deleting the Android folder and downloaded the new files and tools again. No luck in getting it to work.

I need more information.

1. Have you downloaded a new SDK in a new folder, as explained in the first post (https://www.b4x.com/android/forum/threads/b4a-v10-2-beta-is-available-for-download.121775/) ?
Based on the logs inside the app, you are still using an old SDK.

2. Which version of Java are you using?

2. Which version of Java are you using?

1. Yes I have created a new folder. But I copied the old SDK files and I later unpacked and copied the files as indicated in the instructions. I was wrong?

2. I use Java 8 and also OpenJDK11. At the time of the error I was using Java 8

 

[Erel]

I was wrong?

Yes.

You should create a new empty folder and download the packages listed here: https://www.b4x.com/android/forum/threads/b4a-v10-2-beta-is-available-for-download.121775/

 

[Pendrush]

You should create a new empty folder and download the packages...

I was do like that, but still I see error.
OpenJDK 11.0.1

Error: Error: Could not find or load main class com.android.sdklib.tool.sdkmanager.SdkManagerCli
Caused by: java.lang.ClassNotFoundException: com.android.sdklib.tool.sdkmanager.SdkManagerCli

 

[Star-Dust]

i also have the same error using Java 8

 

[Star-Dust]

I found the problem. There was an error unzipping the SDK Tool file and folders were missing.

I re-downloaded and repeated the decompression operation
