Appcelerator on Windows 10, module build issues [duplicate] - appcelerator

I have create a new Mobile Module Project, but when i try to build it, i have this error:
BUILD FAILED
C:\ProgramData\Titanium\mobilesdk\win32\5.2.2.GA\module\android\build.xml:165:
no executable specified
Did something wrong? I did the following step:
-Installed Appcelerator Studio
-It automatically installed Titanium SDK and i selected to install Android SDK
-Installed JAVA JDK
-Createed new module and tryed to build it

To fix this, edit the file:
C:\ProgramData\Titanium\mobilesdk\win32\5.2.2.GA\module\android\build.xml
Or for any newer SDK versions, just use e.g. 5.3.1 instead of 5.2.2
On line 159, add ".exe" to aidl, like so:
TO

To develop android module you will have to install some additional component and configure some path variables. There is a nice quick start guide where you will find everything. Thinks that need to install:
Android NDK
Ant
Eclipse Java Development Tools plugin
Android Development Tools plugin
gperf
Python

AzureDevops Build fails due to Xamarin iOS SDK version

We are currently having issues with AzureDevops hosted build servers when trying to build our application.
This is the following error we get:
MTOUCH : error MT2101: Can't resolve the reference 'System.Void
ObjCRuntime.Runtime::ReleaseBlockOnMainThread(System.IntPtr)',
referenced from the method 'System.Void
ObjCRuntime.Trampolines/NIDCompletionHandler::Finalize()' in
'Xamarin.iOS, Version=0.0.0.0, Culture=neutral,
PublicKeyToken=84e04ff9cfb79065'.
[/Users/vsts/agent/2.155.1/work/4/s/Smartphone/......]
We have determined that this is an issue regarding the Xamarin.iOS SDK Version that the Build server is using. When running locally on Xamarin.iOS SDK 12.14.0.114, the build completes fine.
Is there anyway to specify which version an AzureDevOps server uses? I know you can use something similar to :
/bin/bash -c "sudo $AGENT_HOMEDIRECTORY/scripts/select-xamarin-sdk.sh 5_18_1"
/bin/bash -c "echo '##vso[task.setvariable variable=MD_APPLE_SDK_ROOT;]'/Applications/Xcode_10.1.app;sudo xcode-select --switch /Applications/Xcode_10.1.app/Contents/Developer"
In order to change the Mono version. What we really need is a way to select the iOS SDK version.
You can install newer iOS SDK versions using the Boots tool.
Just install it, add the step to your pipeline and put in the installer uri you need.
The download uri is https://dl.xamarin.com/MonoTouch/Mac/xamarin.ios-13.8.2.2.pkg (obviously switch to whatever Xamarin.iOS version you require).
By selecting the Mono version via the Bash script above (select-xamarin-sdk.sh), you set the corresponding Xamarin.iOS SDK version as well. If you use the latest Mono version (6.8.0 at this writing), you set the recent Xamarin.iOS SDK version at the same time.
See James Montemagno's blog entry about this.

NatvieScript Installation Error(windows)

I have a problem completing NativeScript installation requirement. I got stuck at number 5 in the installation guide available here.
When i run the command "tns doctor" in the command prompt, i get the error message below:
Cannot find a compatible Android SDK for compilation. To be able to
build for An droid, install Android SDK 22 or later. Run $
%ANDROID_HOME%\tools\android to manage your Android SDK versions.
You need to have the Android SDK Build-tools installed on your system.
You can i nstall any version in the following range: '>=23 <=27'. Run
$ %ANDROID_HOME%\tools\android from your command-line to install
required An droid Build Tools.
You need to have Android SDK 22 or later and the latest Android
Support Reposito ry installed on your system. Run $
%ANDROID_HOME%\tools\android to manage the Android Support Repository.
I have installed the required sdk and i am still getting the same error message and every time i execute this script in the console, it takes like forever to complete:
"%ANDROID_HOME%\tools\bin\sdkmanager" "tools" "platform-tools"
"platforms;android-25" "build-tools;25.0.2"
"extras;android;m2repository" "extras;google;m2repository"

Ionic trouble: can't build to android

I've got an Ionic 3.4 project and trying to build it to Android for testing purposes.
I installed Android Studio and the Android SDK, aswell Java 8. Then did:
ionic cordova platform add android
Then, when I write...
ionic build android
... I get the following error:
cordova build android ✖ Running command - failed!
[ERROR] Cordova encountered an error.
You may get more insight by running the Cordova command above directly.
[ERROR] An error occurred while running cordova build android (exit
code 1):
ANDROID_HOME=C:\Users\Zerok\AppData\Local\Android\sdk
JAVA_HOME=C:\Program Files\java\jdk1.8.0_121
Error: Could not find an installed version of Gradle either in Android Studio,
or on your system to install the gradle wrapper. Please include gradle
in your path, or install Android Studio
What's going on? I also installed Gradle 4.0 into the Java folder, and pointed towards it in the GRADLE_HOME environment variable:
Var name: GRADLE_HOME
Value: C:\Program Files\Java\gradle-4.0
Also added the following to the path:
GRADLE_HOME\bin
But it still throws the same error... I don't think it's a problem with plugins, but with the Ionic/Cordova build system. What I don't understand, is why it needs Gradle when it's perfectly working in Android Studio, maybe it's because it's not in C:/, but a different disk? Any ideas?
(Assuming Windows 10)
open Start Menu, type path and hit Enter
System Properties will open. On the bottom click Environment Variables...
In the window that opens, on the bottom section named System Variables, double click Path
Click New and copy paste the path to your gradle installation
Make sure the path environment variable points to the bin folder of gradle like so: export PATH="$PATH:/home/jeffbl/android-studio/gradle/gradle-3.2/bi‌​n".
If that doesn't work try:
$ cordova platform rm android && cordova platform add https://github.com/apache/cordova-android && cordova build
If that doesn't work then use the SDK manager to downgrade to an earlier version of your SDK. It might be that there is no graddle wrapper out yet for the latest.
In any case you will find the answer to your problem in this github issue.
Ok, I already fixed it. And the fix is weird as hell, but well, at least it works.
Solution: uninstall Android Studio and install it in the main drive (C in my case). Everything began to work perfectly after this clean install.

cmake: "cannot execute binary file" on osx android build

On OSX, when running an android gradle build it gives me the following:
android-sdk-macosx/cmake/3.6.3155560/bin/cmake: cannot execute binary file
I've tried
chmod +x,
reinstalling the android sdk build tools
googling
OSX 10.11.6 Gradle 2.14.1 Android SDK 23.0.2
Its a Superpowered(.com) Android project
After upgrading to Android Studio 2.2, it installed cmake and it now works correctly. Its unclear exactly why as it seems to be the same exact version of cmake.
Part of the problem was that I was actually using the latest stable version of IntelliJ which is still using Android Studio <2.2 level.

NativeScript Installation Issues

I was just trying to install NavtiveScript, for this I followed the official installation guide available at
http://docs.nativescript.org/angular/start/quick-setup but I am stuck at "Step 3: Install iOS and Android requirements"
When I run the below command in Command Prompt (with administrative privileges)
#powershell -NoProfile -ExecutionPolicy Bypass -Command "iex ((new-object net.webclient).DownloadString('https://www.nativescript.org/setup/win'))"
Everything seems to be installed without any issue. But when I try to verify the installation through command, "tns doctor" I returns below warnings:
D:\>tns doctor

Can anyone please guide?
I am using Windows 10, and have Visual Studio 2015 (update 3) and Visual Studio Code installed on my machine.
The command line of installing Android also didn't work for me and gave me the same errors as you. I figured out this by downloading and installing Android Studio. After your installation, you should be able to find the location of the android sdk, which is /Users/myMacUserName/Library/Android/sdk in my situation. And you could select all the needed things through SDK Manager. In the terminal, you then do 'export ANDROID_HOME=/Users/myMacUserName/Library/Android/sdk' instead of the command from NativeScript installtion instruction 'export ANDROID_HOME=/usr/local/opt/android-sdk'. After all these, you should be okay with the Android SDK errors.

Install the android studio from the above link and then after that run the studio and install the desired android sdk packages from within the studio.
