Re: [android-developers] Re: Error installing Android Studio Preview version

I'm not sure you saw my reply to myself.. but I did get it working on Ubuntu 12.10. I didn't realize that I didn't have OpenJDK installed. I had thought I did because the JRE package name had the letters "JDK" (OpenJDK). Once I installed the actual OpenJDK from the repos, Android Studio installed and worked, despite the warning message about using the OpenJDK in place of Oracle's.

As a side note, I am 12.10 Ubuntu Studio (which uses XFCE instead of Unity). I highly recommend it if you don't like the direction that they're going with Unity.

On Ubuntu it's the .sh but I hadn't tried any troubleshooting.  Just wanted to see if it worked out of the box.  The .sh file warns about using OpenJDK.  I have Oracle installed but probably not the version it is looking for (upgrading Java 64-bit can be a pain).    I'm still using 10.04 Ubuntu since Unity is not a developer's GUI.  Looks like the .sh file needs some mods to give the correct error message.  More on this over on the Google+ comments to the blog article.

Basically it's the bat configuration that they use on Android Studio. If you check it (inside the bin folder of Android Studio) you will see where it checks for JDKs and you will be able to solve the problem!

So what might break if the Java configuration is changed?  Changing Java configurations is not something that developers do everyday.  There probably needs to be more complete instructions.  Eclipse works fine with my current configuration.  I may wait on Studio until I see what problems and solutions others have.

I am following the instructions for installing Android Studio Preview on Linux. I am running Ubuntu 12.10 64 bit. This is the specific message I got:

'tools.jar' is not in the Android Studio classpath.
Please ensure JAVA_HOME points to JDK rather than JRE.

I then tried:

export JAVA_HOME=/usr/lib/jvm/default-java

based on advice on askubuntu.com, to no avail. Does anyone know what the issue might be, or how I can go resolving this? I would really like to try out Android Studio, since it looks really cool based on the presentation during the IO keynote.
