ADB doesn't work on debian

Question

I'm using a debian wheezy amd64, I don't manage to start ADB . I know there are several threads on that subjects but none of those trials didn't work out.

I always have same result :

`---> sudo ./adb start-server
<br> 
* daemon not running. starting it now on port 5037 *
<br>
cannot bind 'tcp:5037'
<br>
ADB server didn't ACK
<br>
* failed to start daemon *`

There is nothing running on port 5037. I checked with netstat -a Neither any adb process by ps aux | grep adb ps aux | grep adb

The pass is well exported. I have the good rights on adb file. I don't know what to do any more.

Thanks in advance!

If you only need ADB, you can give a try to the Debian package adb (former android-tools-adb).

The main advantage is that this ADB is compiled from sources for your running platform (amd64, I suppose). So, you won't have any "32 bits library" problem.
