Windows 8 64-bit Emulator Manager Issues

Hello there,

After reviewing some other threads, I discovered I had to install the x86 version of the SDK via the x86 install manager just to get the SDK to work on my Windows 8 Pro 64-bit system.  The IDE loads up fine, however the button to load the Emulation Manager does nothing.  Nor does attempting to run the emulation manger via the start menu, nor the cmd line prompt.  For some reason the emulation-manager.exe file does absolutely nothing when I attempt to run it.

I was able to get the emulation manager to run by running the emulation-manager.jar file.  I was able to create a new emulator image, but the launch button does absolutely nothing.  Not only that, but the IDE does not seem to recognize the manager at all when I run it this way.  Again, the Connection Manager in the IDE that is supposed to run the Emulation Manager does absolutely nothing.

HAXM was installed, VT-x is enabled.  When I create a new emulator image in the emulator-manager.jar application, it says HW Virtualization: Supported.  Literally everything *looks* good, and I have copied the exact same steps as my college who is running Tizen SDK on WIndows 7 Home Premium 64-bit OS. 

Does anyone know what I need to do to get the emulator manager to function properly on my Windows 8 Pro 64-bit OS? 

Thank you for your time.  Hope we can figure this out.  Really looking forward to developing for this new platform :)

Cheers!

Hi, you can re install the SDK, and at the time of installing delete tizen-sdk data folder where previous SDK was install. Thanks

Hi Arun, Thanks for the advice, but unfortunately it did not work. I uninstalled the SDK, deleted the tizen-sdk folder, then reinstalled. Same issue persists. Emulator manager will not link with the IDE. Any other ideas?

I'm experiencing the same issue as Kevin. 64bit Windows Pro install and nothing happens when I attempt to run the emulator.

Although I'm not sure whether it works well, however, could you please try to run Emulator manager on console? C:\tizen-sdk\tools\emulator\bin\emulator-manager.exe If it doesn't work, you might wait until Win8 is officially supported.

Hi, I have the same problem, When i attempt to run the emulator nothing happens in spite that I’m working on windows7 64_bit. In fact, when I tried the sdk for windows7 64_bit, it was very slow and the IDE was easily blocked, so I couldn’t do my tests. That’s why I’m trying now to work on sdk windows7 32_bit. It works fine but nothing happens when I attempt to run the emulator. Actually I’m trying to test my application on the tizen web simulator but I have to find a solution for my emulator to test some functionality like geolocation… If there is no solution for my problem on windows can you give me please the most appropriate and stable version to work on ubuntu because I tested the ubuntu 12.10 and it seems that it works fine but unfortunately the internet connection on the emulator doesn’t work and I noticed that developers who reported this problem worked on ubuntu 12.10. So can you please help me to find a solution for my windows or to choose the right version of ubuntu. Thank you for your help.

Hi dorrsaf, I had the same problem (win 8 and ubuntu 12.10), now I'm using Ubuntu 10.04 and the emulator works fine.
dor
thank you for your reply, i will try it.

HI, do you mean ubuntu 12.04 or 10.04? is it the 32 bit version?
Benoit JOUANIGO
Hi, it's ubuntu 12.04 32bits. Sorry for the mistake.

Hi, I am also facing similar issue with ubuntu 12.04, 64-bit OS, the emulator is not getting launched from IDE. However I tried below from terminal and it worked. ~/tizen-sdk/tools/emulator/bin$ ./emulator-manager

This is how i fixed my issue. I had the same problem in Windows 7 64bit. The SDK 2.1 worked perfect but the emulator manager didn't start at all. I fixed this by running emulator-manager.jar in C:\tizen-sdk\tools\emulator\bin folder. Then i created an emulator ut when i clicked launch nothing happened. So i unistalled tizen-sdk and reinstall from the image that i downloaded from https://developer.tizen.org/downloads/tizen-sdk. After the installation everything worked great.

Same problem. Win 8 x64, java 32 and tizen sdk 32. Emulator Manager does not work. In my work on the Mac work well.

I got to work emulator manager, using compatibility mode Win7. But the emulator does not work. screenshot: http://savephoto.ru/f/nbgi2uowsuh Any ideas?

On Windows 7 64 this is happening due to the Chrome path. if We update simulator.bat with correct path it started working properly. Make sure java path also set to correct path on environment settings. Changed simulator.bat ver | find "Version 6" && set DIR=%LOCALAPPDATA%|| set DIR=%HOMEDRIVE%%HOMEPATH%\Local Settings\Application Data set CHROME="C:\Program Files (x86)\Google\Chrome\Application\chrome.exe" set /p OPTIONS= <%CD%\sdk-wrt-options.txt "%CHROME%" %OPTIONS% --app="file://%CD%/web/index.html" --user-data-dir=%CD%/sdk-profile-data/
