installing JDK

Post by fredigertsch » Wed Mar 02, 2011 7:57 pm

I have some problem with the lesson "How do I Becom an Android Developer on a PC". I have newly installed my Windows 7. Then I install the Java SDK (JDK). Then when I install the Android SDK I get the described error: Java SE Development Kit (JDK) not found. What is wrong??? Thanks for any help.

It could be a 64-bit/32-bit issue - which versions of JDK, Eclipse and Android SDK did you download?

I just installed the 64-bit JDK and had the same problem. I installed the 32-bit version and everything worked installing the Android SDK. Apparently the Android installer looks for a registry entry for the 32-bit version, which is not there if you are using the 64-bit version. I did find links on google that tell you how to change the registry setting to point to the 64-bit installation... I just went with the 32-bit. Sorry, but I don't have those links handy. You should be able to find them fairly quickly though.
