When I run npx react native doctor and receive an error message Android Studio - Required for building and installing your app on Android, I have already installed Android Studio, Windows 11 operating system, Java 17 version. How do I handle this issue? Thank you

It’s likely a bug on our end, nothing to worry about, unless you face issues building for Android from the CLI.

Since we miss Windows contributors, we’d appreciate any help resolving this AS resolution bug

Fixed by installing command line tools

And adding this line export PATH=$PATH:$ANDROID_HOME/cmdline-tools\latest\bin in

Close and reopen the terminal

yarn react-native doctor

@Kailash23 Why the path has \ ? 🤔

[matej-podzemny]

Same issue here, I have the android studio installed via JetBrain Toolbox and the doctor cannot found it at all, everything else works fine.

I tried to set this, but no luck so far..

export STUDIO_JDK=~/Applications/Android\ Studio.app
export PATH="$STUDIO_JDK:$PATH"

I have the same issue, but app building and running just fine on my android device, so it's only doctor's issue.

[GoldenBilly]

I think issue is here because in windows (or at least in windows that support 64 bits) android studio's bin is studio64.exe, not studio.exe

[GoldenBilly]

maybe if we replace it with that:

const prefix = process.arch === 'x64' ? '64' : '';
const androidStudioPath = join(
        getUserAndroidPath(),
        'android-studio',
        'bin',
        `studio${prefix}.exe`
        )

it will be fixed but I'm not sure about that

[GoldenBilly]

or maybe its because of wmic, when I've tried to execute it with wmic datafile where name="C:\\Users\va126\\AppData\\Local\\Android\\android-studio\\bin\\studio64.exe" get Version It gave me this error: Unexpected switch at this level.

But when I've tried this: wmic datafile where "Name='C:\\Users\\va126\\AppData\\Local\\Android\\android-studio\\bin\\studio64.exe'" get version It worked just fine and gave me this version: 2022.3.0.0

So I think it can be also because of wmic.

[GoldenBilly]

first command is similar to command in code

[wy-service]

Same question

[wy-service]

What should I do

[matej-podzemny]

It is doctor issue, actually in its dependecy envinfo. The issue was raised here, and is already merged: https://github.com/tabrindle/envinfo/pull/252#pullrequestreview-2027803114

SOLUTION: If you still struggle, you can create alias folder to help doctor found it, for mac use this command:

ln -s /Applications/Android\ Studio.app/Contents ~/Applications/Android\ Studio.app/Contents

[GoldenBilly]

What about windows?

[GoldenBilly]

I've tried my fix, and it worked just fine for me. All what I've changed is:

      const prefix = process.arch === 'x64' ? '64' : '';
      const androidStudioPath = join(
        getUserAndroidPath(),
        'android-studio',
        'bin',
        `studio${prefix}.exe`
        ).replace(/\\/g, '\\\\');
      const {stdout} = await executeCommand(
        `wmic datafile where "Name='${androidStudioPath}'" get version`,
      );

In /packages/cli-doctor/src/tools/healthchecks/androidStudio.ts

[GoldenBilly]

No one cares...

@matej-podzemny thank you for raising this fix! I've created bump PR inside CLI https://github.com/react-native-community/cli/pull/2428 🙌

@GoldenBilly this fix makes sense to me! I've a PR with your diff 🙏

[GoldenBilly]

you should probably include in your fix also this:

const {stdout} = await executeCommand(
        `wmic datafile where "Name='${androidStudioPath}'" get version`,
      );

because I dont know why, but at least my windows had a problem with that (I think because of "-" in android studio path)

[szymonrybczak]

@GoldenBilly I'm fine with this change, do you mind submitting separate PR? :)

[GoldenBilly]

okay, but later, because I dont have PC with me right now
