Hi I am trying to install android sdk with eclipse but it keeps showing this error to me

"Failed to parse the output of 'adb version'"

I followed following links but could not work for me

Failed to parse the output of 'adb version'

http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1001858

Failed to parse the output of 'adb version'?

Eclipse/adb error message in Vista "Failed to parse the output of adb version"

Any solution please.

  • Hi, would be nice to know which version of Eclipse you are using, which version of the SDK and of the JDK. Moreover, are you local administrator of your PC or you have limited privileges on the machine? If so, which is your access level/rights? – Maurizio Benedetti Jan 09 '12 at 23:33
  • I am using the latest versions of Eclipse and SDK since I downloaded them a while ago. I am using jre not JDK. Yes I am local admin of my PC. – Om3ga Jan 09 '12 at 23:37
  • Now I installed JDK as well but still the same problem. – Om3ga Jan 09 '12 at 23:54
  • I downloaded the SDK from this link http://developer.android.com/sdk/index.html . Now I installed JDK as well but still the same problem. – Om3ga Jan 10 '12 at 00:02
  • Now it also shows these errors: DDMS files not found: D:\eclipse\platform-tools\adb.exe D:\eclipse\tools\hprof-conv.exe D:\eclipse\tools\traceview.bat – Om3ga Jan 10 '12 at 00:02
  • Now again back to the same error: Failed to parse the output of 'adb version' The rest of the errors are gone. – Om3ga Jan 10 '12 at 00:20
  • in your windows.env settings android sdk installer should have put some tool paths in your system path and you should have an ANDROID_SDK_HOME pointing to the SDK DMMS files not found bu its trying to locate the android sdk tool sin your eclipse install ie other words are you missing the ANDROID_SDK_HOME in windwos env settings – Fred Grott Jan 10 '12 at 02:10
  • My SDK is installed at D:\android-sdk-windows and my eclipse is installed at D:\eclipse. Here are my environment variables set ups %SystemRoot%\system32;%SystemRoot%;%SystemRoot%\System32\Wbem;%SYSTEMROOT%\System32\WindowsPowerShell\v1.0\;C:\Program Files (x86)\QuickTime\QTSystem\;C:\Python27\;C:\Python27\Scripts\;C:\Ruby192\lib\ruby\gems\1.9.1\gems\haml-3.1.3;C:\Program Files\TortoiseSVN\bin;C:\Program Files (x86)\Java\jre6\bin\java.exe;C:\android-sdk-windows\platform-tools\adb.exe;C:\Program Files (x86)\Java\jdk1.7.0_02\bin – Om3ga Jan 10 '12 at 10:26

    Hi man, it looks to me an local anti virus problem locking the required sys resources. Try to temporary disable or remove it if there is one . Let us know. – Maurizio Benedetti Jan 11 '12 at 06:37
  • Thanks Maurizio Benedetti. I disabled my antivirus completely and it works now. Thanks again :-) – Om3ga Jan 11 '12 at 15:50

In my case disabling firewall for a while solves the problem. Firewall probably had blocked adb, so add it to "trusted programs".
