Did you try using the link from the error? https://github.com/ionic-team/native-run/wiki/Android-Errors

[PacoRivera13]

Yes I did, I have my SDK installed at C:\Program Files (x86)\Android\android-sdk
then I installed it on a D:Android\sdk

set ANDROID_SDK_ROOT=D:\Android\sdk
set ANDROID_HOME=D:\Android\sdk

But any of these are working as expected.

What worked for me: Reboot.

I just set the env variables shortly before. Seems like even after restarting the terminal NodeJs still applies new scripts with the old env variables.

I am facing the same problem. Do you have the solution right now?

I also try "npx cap open android"
when gradle, there was an error: Supplied javaHome must be a valid directory.

But I set the JAVA_HOME correctly (edit .bashrc file, adding PATH JAVA_HOME="thepathtotheJavaJRE". But still, the problem persist.

Anyone got the solution? Many thanks

I think this is not a bug but a configuration issue. Make sure that Java Home is actually set where you run the command. If you are on windows, make sure to reboot after setting the environment variable. Last one was the reason I had trouble. I think this issue needs to be closed.

My issues was that native-run expect SDK to live in a very specific place, eg on linux it has to be $HOME/Android/sdk (link), so I had to change my folder structure to accommodate that

Actually native-run will resolve Android SDK root folder by parsing env variables in the sequence of ANDROID_HOME, ANDROID_SDK_ROOT, SDK_DIRECTORIES.

native-run/src/android/utils/sdk/index.ts

Line 161 in c6303f2

export async function resolveSDKRoot(): Promise<string> {

if your installed Android SDK in folder other than $HOME/Android/sdk, you should set either ANDROID_HOME or ANDROID_SDK_ROOT environment variables to point to your Android SDK folder.

try run native-run android --sdk-info --verbose to check if Android SDK root folder get parsed correctly.
