Hi Folks, I recently rebuilt my mac and I’m setting up Fuse again now. I can preview the Example Fuse app Locally but running into a problem when building for Android. I have jdk1.8.0\_65 installed. “fuse install android” verifies that everything is ok. However I get the following when I try and build or preview for android: fuse build -t=android Uno 0.20.1-OSX (build 902) Configuring (2,664.38 ms) Parsing source code (5,572.30 ms) Compiling syntax tree (15,065.14 ms) Generating code and data (26,963.25 ms) Building native target 1/2: libBlankProject1501.so 2/2: BlankProject1501-debug.apk (78,644.65 ms) (unknown): E0000: Native build failed Build completed in 128.92 seconds. 0 Warning(s) 1 Error(s) ## Error Summary (unknown): E0000: Native build failed FATAL ERROR: Build failed. fuse: Errors were encountered while building the project Hope you can help. ## Regards, Alex ---

Hi Alex, Could you please try to run `fuse build -t=android -v`. By adding `-v` you get verbose info from the compiler that makes it easier for us to troubleshoot. ---

Hi Emil, Thanks for that. Adding -v resulted in the following info: ```auto Error: JAVA_HOME is not defined correctly. We cannot execute /Library/Java/JavaVirtualMachines/Contents/Home/bin/java --- (exit code: 1) ``` I tried setting JAVA\_HOME and also added it to my PATH ```auto echo $JAVA_HOME /Library/Java/JavaVirtualMachines/jdk1.8.0_65.jdk/Contents/Home ``` However this still resulted in the same error; suggesting Fuse wasn’t actually using the value in $JAVA\_HOME. As a workaround I’ve created a link from the /Library/Java/JavaVirtualMachines/ directory to the /Library/Java/JavaVirtualMachines/jdk1.8.0\_65.jdk/Contents/Home directory which worked. (if anyone else is looking to do the same, just navigate to /Library/Java/JavaVirtualMachines/ in the terminal and execute the command `sudo ln -s ./jdk1.8.0_65.jdk/Contents/ ./Contents` ) Alex ---

This should have been fixed in Fuse v0.9.7. I suggest you to download the latest version from here [https://www.fusetools.com/downloads](https://www.fusetools.com/downloads) and then rerun `fuse install android`. Sorry for the inconvenience. ---

I seem to have a simular problem, however I’m new to all of this so it could be something I’m doing wrong.

Hi Dave! When you run fuse without a target project path, like `C:\Users\Dave's>fuse preview -tandroid -v` it will look for a suitable project to preview in the current directory. If there’s no .unoproj file in `C:\Users\Dave's` then you’ll get the error you reported. Did you run the local preview the same way (only without `-tandroid`) or did you start it from the GUI? ---

I started both previews by right clicking in Sublime, the Local worked, The Android didn’t. I’m going to try again today, see if I can make it work. ---

Great! I’m sure we can get this one worked out as well. 🙂 From the command line, cd into the directory containing the .unoproj of the project that failed and do `fuse build -tandroid -v` and let’s see what the log says. (Doing a verbose _build_ provides more sensible output than a verbose preview) ---

Thanks, this gives us a bit more to work with. 🙂 We suspect it _might_ be related to the apostrophe in your username (and something in the Android NDK not dealing very well with it). We’ll dig in a bit further and let you know what we find! ---

Hi, We are able to reproduce the issue, and it’s related to the apostrophe in your username. The fix will not be released in a while, however here is a **workaround** : 1. Move `%localappdata%\Fusetools\Fuse\Android\AndroidNDK` to a path that doesn’t contain `'`, for example `C:\` 2. Run `fuse install android`, and when asked to provide an existing path to the AndroidNDK, provide the path to the new location (the location of where you moved the NDK). ---

Well that worked, Thanks. Also for other Noobs. on old Samsungs make sure the USB is set to PTP rather than MTP. That was another thing that was stopping it from working.
