My Android emulator won't launch and there are no errors, any ideas?

Question

When I try to run my application as an Adroid App this is what my console reports:

[2011-10-22 15:21:32 - HelloWorldAndroid] ------------------------------
[2011-10-22 15:21:32 - HelloWorldAndroid] Android Launch!
[2011-10-22 15:21:32 - HelloWorldAndroid] adb is running normally.
[2011-10-22 15:21:32 - HelloWorldAndroid] Performing Hello.World.MyHelloWorld activity launch
[2011-10-22 15:21:32 - HelloWorldAndroid] Automatic Target Mode: launching new emulator with compatible AVD 'Android_1.5_Emulator'
[2011-10-22 15:21:32 - HelloWorldAndroid] Launching a new emulator with Virtual Device 'Android_1.5_Emulator'

When I open the AVD Manager says that it is valid. When I click start I get a quick loading screen and then it closes and thats it. I have changed the launch action in the configuration. I have deleted and recreated the emulator and the Android project. I am also using Ubuntu 11.10. Does anyone have ideas on the problem?

Answer 1

Try launching the emulator manually with adb and see if an error is reported. You could also try

adb kill-server
adb start-server

Answer 2

This worked for me. adb kill-server then adb start-server then cd ..\\tools then emulator -avd <avd-name> . See also My Android emulator won't launch and there are no errors, any ideas?
