Ubuntu (WSL): How should I be setting these paths for Android Studio?


I recently installed Android Studio on Ubuntu (WSL) for my Meteor project but it installed to /opt/android-studio. I see that the SDK is installed to /root/Android/Sdk. I've added it to the ANDROID_SDK_ROOT env variable but it says its a non existent path.

How should I be setting these paths? This is the output I'm getting:

Status of the individual requirements:        
    
✓ Java JDK                                    
✗ Android SDK: 'ANDROID_SDK_ROOT' environment variable is set to non-existent path:
        /root/Android/Sdk
        Try update it manually to point to valid SDK directory.
✗ Android target: Command failed with EACCES: avdmanager list target
        spawn avdmanager EACCES
✓ Gradle                                      

I have set the JAVA_HOME path to:

/usr/lib/jvm/java-11-openjdk-amd64


Solution

  • Moving the Android directory to /etc solved it:

    sudo su
    mv /root/Android /etc
