And finally path ? post a screenshot

[Tekwizer (ArnaV Bhardwaj)]

[iamwsumit (Sumit Kumar)]

@Tekwizer it should be Path instead of PATH. Correct them

[Tekwizer (ArnaV Bhardwaj)]

Done but still nothing

[dora_paz (Dora)]

Open a command prompt window and type echo %JAVA_HOME% and post the result please

[Tekwizer (ArnaV Bhardwaj)]

[dora_paz (Dora)]

Maybe java jdk in not configured correctly and causes problems

[iamwsumit (Sumit Kumar)]

@Tekwizer As far I am understanding , you have not saved your variable by clicking on Ok.
Please click on ok first then this window will be closed.It looks like

and then you will see another window something like this

Then again click on Ok then your variable will be saved
Then rerun your command

[Tekwizer (ArnaV Bhardwaj)]

also for better understanding pls take a look at this guide -

How to setup appinventor sources and make extensions

just try to restart and follow the steps in video

[Shreyash (Shreyash Saitwal)]

Try removing the spaces before and after the semicolons (;) in your path variable.

Also, make sure you restart your terminal after you make any changes to the environment variables.

However, like I’ve mentioned in both my articles, you should migrate to using Rush. Just like you might have experienced it now, setting up the environment for using AI2 sources and/or extension template could be a bit tedious if you haven’t done something like that before.

Rush solves this issue to some extent. Instead of having to download and install ten different programs on your machine, you just need JDK 8 and Rush to start building extensions. On top of that, you get a bunch of cool new features, like faster builds, direct support for using Android manifest, etc., when using Rush.

To know more about what Rush is and how to install it, head over to the following post

Rush • A new and improved way of building extensions

[banner] Rush is a build tool, built to be a complete replacement for the existing way of developing extensions. It attempts to improve the overall developer experience and reduce the amount of boilerplate code you need to write to make extensions. With Rush, you no longer need to use annotations to define your extension’s metadata and Android manifest tags. Instead, you get a separate metadata file, rush.yml, and direct support for AndroidManifest.xml (more on that below). Not just that, Ru…

Thanks @Shreyash

@Shreyash

Try removing the spaces before and after the semicolons ( ; ) in your path variable.

I missed that cause I usually change settings from

and not from here

Thank you @Shreyash for your help

[iamwsumit (Sumit Kumar)]

@Shreyash there is no path variables in mine PC , however ant command is working how is it possible if it is possible then I don’t think the problem was caused by spaces in path variable.

[Shreyash (Shreyash Saitwal)]

No way! The path variable must be there. Can you show me a picture that proves your statement?

[iamwsumit (Sumit Kumar)]

Look here @Shreyash

Here are mine vars

and Here I run my command

[Shreyash (Shreyash Saitwal)]

I can’t see all the variables on you PC in that picture. Anyways, there’s a much better way. Run echo %PATH% in CMD and paste the output here.

[iamwsumit (Sumit Kumar)]

@Shreyash

echo %PATH%

Got it.
I have pasted the %ANT_HOME%\bin in my user variable instead of system variable but it is working
