Hello,

Only joined yesterday im trying to install Android SDK on my laptop I've followed this tutorial

How To Setup Android Developer Tools(ADT Bundle), Eclipse, and Android SDK Environment - YouTube

So now my desk top has the adt-bundle-windows-x86_64-20131030 folder on it aswell as the

jdk-7u45-windows-i586.exe I've installed java then gone in to the folder to run eclipse but i keep getting this error message

As you can see from the image on the desktop lies the Java application and the folder for eclipse

Any help would be highly appreciated.
 
Sounds like you need to make sure that Java is included in your path.

Find the location of the javaw.exe executable. Go ahead and copy that path.

Now right-click Computer -> Properties, Advanced System Settings (on the left), Advanced (tab), Environment Variables. In the bottom part of the dialog that then appears, scroll down til you see the Path variable. Select it, then Edit. In the Variable Value field, scroll all the way to the end. Add a semicolon (; - only if one isn't already there) and paste in the full path that you copied earlier.

Eclipse should then be able to figure out how to talk to Java.

Good luck!
 
Hi thanks for the response, I've just done that but now im getting this error

I've browsed to that location and it exists, I've also added that location the environment variables same way you mentioned above,
 
Try the x64 Java then. It's probably best if they match :D

(No need to redownload the SDK - sounds like you got the correct one there)
 
i just twigged what i did, went for the 86x due to the original tutorial i followed on youtube, Well the correct java version is downloading ill update shortly. fingers crossed :)
