While implementing the BluetoothChat application .apk inside G1 device, it always pops up a message:

$adb install -r /home/parveen/workspace/BluetoothChat/bin/BluetoothChat.apk 
-bash: adb: command not found

Why is this error popping up every time, and how can the prob开发者_如何学运维lem be fixed?

Updating the path as listed above in ~/.bashrc makes other bash commands stop working altogether.

the easiest way I found is to use what eaykin did but link it your /bin.

sudo ln -s /android/platform-tools/adb /bin/adb

No restart is required just type following command :

adb devices

To make sure it's working.

I found the solution to my problem. In my ~/.bashrc:

export PATH=${PATH}:/path/to/android-sdk/tools

However adb is not located in the android-sdk/tools/, rather in android-sdk/platform-tools/. So I added the following

export PATH=${PATH}:/path/to/android-sdk/tools:/path/to/android-sdk/platform-tools

And that solved the problem for me.

sudo apt install adb

in your pc adb not installed.

Try this, working for me

I had the same issue on my fresh Ubuntu 64 bit installation, and the path was set up correctly.

Thus, which adb would resolve correctly, but trying to run it would fail with adb: command not found.

The very helpful guys at #android-dev pointed me to the solution, namely that the 32 bit libraries hadn't been installed. On my previous computers, this had probably been pulled in as a dependency for another package.

On Ubuntu (probably other Debians as well), running [sudo] apt-get install ia32-libs

NOTE: while using adb on Linux you'll need to type ./adb to execute adb commands unless you create a path in ~/.bashrc. In a terminal write:

sudo gedit ~/.bashrc

Add the following line at the end of the file. Once you're done, save and exit.

Android tools

export PATH=~/Development/adt-bundle-linux/sdk/platform-tools:~/Development/adt-bundle-linux/sdk/tools:$PATH

Then in a Terminal run this command to reload your .bashrc: Code:

source ~/.bashrc

Now you can just run adb without put ./ before every command.

Ubuntu 18.04

This worked for me:

1. Find out and copy platform-tools path, in my case is '/home/daniel/Android/Sdk/platform-tools'
2. Open bashrc nano ~/.bashrc
3. Save platform-tools path export PATH="${PATH}:/home/daniel/Android/Sdk/platform-tools"
4. Reset bash_profile source .bash_profile
5. adb devices is now working

Follow these steps:

Set android vars

Initially go to your home and press `Ctrl + H` it will show you hidden files now look for .bashrc file, open it with any text editor

then place the lines below at the end of file:

export ANDROID_HOME=/myPathSdk/android-sdk-linux
export PATH=$PATH:$ANDROID_HOME/tools:$ANDROID_HOME/platform-tools


Now Reboot the system

It Works!

You need to add $ANDROID_SDK/platform-tools to your PATH, where $ANDROID_SDK is wherever you installed the Android SDK.

For Ubuntu 20.04

After trying many solution

sudo apt install adb

worked for me.

After installing try command adb devices for starting daemon successfully then again use same command adb devices to get the list of devices

I have same problem as you. finally as i know, in linux & mac OS, we use ./adb instead of adb

In my case "adb" is located in "~/Android/Sdk/platform-tools/"

the following command solved the problem:

export PATH=$PATH:~/Android/Sdk/platform-tools/

I have just resolved the problem myself on mint(ubuntu). It seems that adb is a 32 bit executable at least according to readelf -h. for the program to work in 64-bit ubuntu or whatever installation, we must have 32-bit libraries inplace.

solved the problem with

sudo dpkg --add-architecture i386
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install libc6:i386 libncurses5:i386 libstdc++6:i386

The way I fix this problem is:

1. create a link from adb file(drag 'adb' with holding alt then drop to any directory and select 'link here')
2. use #sudo cp adb /bin (copy link from 1 to /bin)

I've done this several times and it works 100%(tested on Ubuntu 12.04 32/64bit).

adb is in android-sdks/tools directory. You simply type this command: adb logcat.

If you want to your stack traces in a text file use this command: adb logcat > trace.txt. Now your traces are copied into that file.

If it is not working then go to android-sdks/platform-tools then put this command: ./adb logcat > trace.txt. Hope it will helps to you.

In Ubuntu i could run the following command:

  sudo apt install android-tools-adb

I had this problem when I was trying to connect my phone and trying to use adb. I did the following

1. export PATH=$PATH{}:/path/to/android-sdk/tools:/path/to/android/platform-tools

2. apt-get install ia32-libs

3. Connected my phone in USB debug mode and In the terminal type lsusb to get a list of all usb devices. Noted the 9 character (xxxx:xxxx) ID to the left of my phone.

4. sudo gedit /etc/udev/rules.d/99-android.rules

5. Add [ SUBSYSTEM=="usb", ATTRS{idVendor}=="####:####", SYMLINK+="android_adb", MODE="0666" GROUP="plugdev" TEST=="/var/run/ConsoleKit/database", \ RUN+="udev-acl --action=$env{action} --device=$env{DEVNAME}" ] (whatever is in [...] )to the file and replace "####:####" with the number from step 3cop

6. sudo service udev restart

7. Restarted my System

8. open terminal browse to adb directory and run ./adb devices

And it shows my phone hence adb starts working without error.

I hope it helps others

Make sure you installed sudo apt-get install android-tools-adb Now check sudo adb It will show help of adb

Now please kill/start adb use following commands -

sudo adb kill-server sudo adb start-server

Lastly, sudo adb devices

Hopefully this will work !!!

updating the $PATH did not work for me, therefore I added a symbolic link to adb to make it work, as follows:

ln -s <android-sdk-folder>/platform-tools/adb <android-sdk-folder>/tools/adb

I was getting this error also and Ubuntu suggested me to install it so I installed* it and this worked in my case.
* - sudo apt-get install android-tools-adb

Note:x64 architecture

creating a symbolic link was the solution for me either. However before working I had to grant access and execute rights to the created symbolic links.

I am not sure if it was @eaykin's answer or @crazymacleod's that worked for me, as I did both before finding the above mentioned solution.

Thanks!

For Fedora

sudo dnf install adb 

Please try to update your bash profile.

For linux users: You need to add your Android SDK location.

For MAC users , in addition to the above step one extra change is required: You also need to add your Android Platform Tools location.
