I’ve installed SDK, NDK and JDK. This is 1st time that I see this error.

I updated my version of Unreal engine from 4.13.2 to 4.15.1 after the problem with Windows 10 update.

I started my project in 4.13 version and I have a repository in gitHub with other partner. But I decided download 4.15.1 after the problem with the last Windows Update.

Also I’ve installed the app in my Smartphone when I started my project. I have android 5.1.

Hi,

I meet exactly the same problem with the same version on Linux side.

The message show:

ERROR: /opt/android-sdk-update-manager//tools/android failed with args --silent update lib-project --path JavaLibs/downloader  _library --target android-19

I had made sure the “android” executable path is totally correct.
And if I manually trigger the command like:

/opt/android-sdk-update-manager/tools/android --silent update\
 lib-project --path JavaLibs/downloader_library --target android-19

it replies as:

*************************************************************************

For command-line tools, use tools/bin/sdkmanager and tools/bin/avdmanager
*************************************************************************

Supported commands are:
android list target
android list avd
android list device
android create avd
android move avd
android delete avd
android list sdk
android update sdk

I think there’s some change into Android SDK so the arguments no longer works for UE4.15.1
May someone have more input in this issue?

Thank you.

And btw, before anyone asking, yes, I had SDK android-19 installed, thank you.

Ok, after try some google search, i found the answer now.
Due android SDK tools version 25.3.0 or later has removed the command.

Explain here: https://github.com/liballeg/allegro5/issues/743

or here: https://askubuntu.com/questions/906942/android-update-project-path-target-android-25-on-ubuntu-16-04

Now to fix this you just need to download sdk tools 25.2.5 or earlier, rename the old version folder “tools” to “tools1” or whatever to backup it, then unzip the downloaded one to that location and rename it “tools”.

Thank you dude. That got me past this error at least.

EDIT: Btw guys, don’t expect latest NDK to work properly as well. Download yourself at least r14b NDK. Otherwise you probably will experience [-Werror,-Wunused-lambda-capture] clang errors on some Unreal Engine core classes. Like TMap that includes helper lambda expressions “seek” with unused capture.
