Why am I getting "Local path does not exist" from my Android project in IntelliJ IDEA?

Question

I am getting the following notification in IntelliJ IDEA when I try to run my Android project:

Waiting for device.
Target device: emulator-5554 (jkj)
Uploading file
    local path: C:\Users\REACH9\androidapi\muzima-android\target\muzima-android.apk
    remote path: /data/local/tmp/com.muzima
Local path doesn't exist.

What could I be missing?

Here all the possible solutions:

Solution 1: Go here and read the accepted answer

Solution 2: Open the .iml file with your editor. Under <configuration>(where you have all those <option name=...> paths, add this under all those paths:

<option name="APK_PATH" value="/build/apk/muzima-android-debug-unaligned.apk" />

Solution 3: File -> Project Structure -> Modules -> Your Project -> Dependencies -> Uncheck the project (only depend on the aar)

You don't have IML files? – LotusUNSW Nov 14 '13 at 06:11

what should i change the APK_PATH to? – user2499766 Nov 14 '13 at 06:20
Hmm, what is the name of the iml file you just gave? Is it something like your_project_name.iml? – LotusUNSW Nov 14 '13 at 06:25

Edited answer again. If it's not working, then I'm fresh out of ideas. Solution 2 worked for me. Solution 1 might work for you. – LotusUNSW Nov 14 '13 at 07:33
Solution 2 worked for me. Worth noting the exact location that this line needs to be added, since you might have multiple blocks: it is under / / / (on IntelliJ 14.0.2) – scubbo Feb 04 '15 at 15:59
