Eclipse doesn't work with Genymotion

Question

I use:

• Windows 8.1
• ADT Eclipse 22.3.0-887826
• Genymotion 2.5.4
• Oracle VM VirtualBox 5.0.4

In the ADT environment, when I click the Genymotion Virtual Device Manager button, it reminds me to set up the path where I installed Genymotion. I set it right and when I click the button again, Genymotion doesn't show up.

The Eclipse console gives me these messages:

Output file: C:\\Users\\lenovo.genymotion-eclipse.log

Loading Genymotion library

Genymotion directory: C:\\Program Files\\Genymobile\\Genymotion

Trying to initialize engine

Invalid path: VBoxManage

Initialize Engine: failed

I just can't get this done, does anyone have the same problem? Can anyone help me out with it?

Answer 1

Try manually connect the Genymotion with ADB:

1. Go to <SDK location>/platform-tools/ . Press Shift + Right click and select open command window here .

2. Restart Genymotion emulator and wait until finish its startup.

3. In the command prompt window, enter:

   adb kill-server

   adb start-server

4. Then, run your app from eclipse. If doesn't work, run again step 3.
