Android-Maven Failed to execute goal org.codehaus.mojoto when install

Question

I am setting up a new Android-Maven development using the new Android ADT Bundle and Android-Mavem Deployer.

The $ANDROID_HOME is /Users/allanhahaha/Documents/adt-bundle-mac-x86_64-20130917/sdk

When I ran mvn clean install -X in maven-android-sdk-deployer-master folder, I got these errors:

[INFO] ------------------------------------------------------------------------

[ERROR]   mvn <goals> -rf :android-3

and here are some extra error messages:

org.apache.maven.lifecycle.LifecycleExecutionException: Failed to execute goal org.codehaus.mojo:properties-maven-plugin:1.0-alpha-2:read-project-properties (default) on project android-3: Properties file not found: /Users/allanhahaha/Documents/adt-bundle-mac-x86_64-20130917/sdk/platforms/android-3/source.properties

It looks pretty strange to me since I don't even have the android-3 folder:

ALLAN-MacBook-Pro:platforms allanhahaha$ pwd
/Users/allanhahaha/Documents/adt-bundle-mac-x86_64-20130917/sdk/platforms
ALLAN-MacBook-Pro:platforms allanhahaha$ ls -l

And here is part of my POM.xml configuration:

<build>
<pluginManagement>
  <plugins>
    <plugin>
      <groupId>org.codehaus.mojo</groupId>
      <artifactId>properties-maven-plugin</artifactId>

      <configuration>
        <sdk>
          <platform>${android.sdk.platform}</platform>
        </sdk>
      </configuration>
    </plugin>
  </plugins>
</pluginManagement>

    <groupId>org.apache.maven.wagon</groupId>
    <artifactId>wagon-webdav-jackrabbit</artifactId>
    <version>2.4</version>
  </extension>
</extensions>

I am new to maven so have no idea about what is going on with this error message. Please help take a look. Thank you.

Answer 1

I still don't know why this happens, but it seems like open up the Android SDK Manager and re-install the package that contains the error could help (in my case install the Android 1.5(API 3) including both the SDK Platform and the Google APIs), and run again the mvn installer.

ANDROID_HOME has to point to your Android SDK and not the ADT.

E.g. I use

export $ANDROID_HOME=/opt/tools/android-sdk-mac_86
