Not able to build Android calabash environment on windows

For building the environment I've installed/use OS Windows 8.1, eclipse, Android SDK, JDK, ruby installer, DevKit installed. Also I've set path for ANDROID_HOME, JAVA_HOME. I've tried maximum ways to resign JAR but not getting that jar so I'm stuck at the point and unable to move forward. did google for my problem. Now I got confused what will be step by step execution to make my environment to run? Or shall I need to build this structure on Linux to make it easier run?

First open 'CMD' or 'CMD with Ruby'
Run the following command
cucumber --version
if cmd shows cucumber version, proceed to next step
calabash-android version
if cmd show calabash-android version, you're ready to run calabash-android testcase.
Then create a folder, cd to that folder and run these commands.
$ calabash-android gen #this will create folder structure
$ calabash-android resign apk_path/<apkfile.apk>
$ calabash-android build apk_path/<apkfile.apk>
$ calabash-android console apk_path/<apkfile.apk>
You will see interactive ruby editor, now type the following command
$ start_test_server_in_background # app will install in connected device.
Then
$ query("*")
Now you can see all the elements in your android application!!
If you face any error/issue in any steps, your setup may be incomplete.

I am getting the following error when I run mvn on OS X Mavericks: Cannot run program "/bin/sh": error=2, No such file or directory

I am running OS X Mavericks on a MacBook Pro.
I have maven 3.0.5 installed.
When I run mvn, I am getting the following error message.
Error while executing process. Cannot run program "/bin/sh": error-2, No such file or directory
And before you ask:
PATH="/usr/local/apache-maven-3.0.5/bin:/Library/Java/JavaVirtualMachines/jdk1.7.0_79.jdk/Contents/Home/bin:/usr/local/bin:/bin:/usr/bin"
M2_HOME="/usr/local/apache-maven-3.0.5"
M2="/usr/local/apache-maven-3.0.5/bin"
MAVEN_OPTS="-Xms256m -Xmx768m -XX:MaxPermSize=512m"
I am also seeing the following near the beginning of the mvn output:
[WARNING] Some problems were encountered while building the effective settings
[WARNING] Failed to use environment variables for interpolation: Cannot run program "env": error=0, spawn failed #

I had the same problem: exec() failed with ANY executable. Finally remembered that I was using a private jre. That jre was a copy of the original one, just with bin/java set as executable.
I made lib/jspawnhelper executable and it worked!

If you are using eclipse , this is due to the java version. point java to your OS java instead of eclipse java. this will be solved

It seems your system is missing the "sh" shell to start interpreting the script.
I just looked up installed shells on Mac OSX and got this result:
/bin/zsh
/bin/ksh
/bin/tcsh
/bin/bash
/bin/sh
So when "/bin/sh" is missing, try "/bin/bash" for example.
Better:
Check if "/bin/sh" exist
If exist check if the user which runs the command can execute the shell
Because it can be possible that the shell binary exist but isn't executable for you. Then you have to make it executable for the user trying mvn.
Hope that helps ;)

Cannot run program "adb" from IntelliJ plugin

My problem is that I want to run shell command from Java code (my IntelliJ plugin):
Runtime.getRuntime().exec("adb devices")
But then I receive IOException:
Cannot run program "adb": error=2, No such file or directory.
What is odd is that when I run it on debug mode it works, it's broken only when I deploy my plugin to real IntelliJ. The command also works from any terminal.
The only thing which works now it typing the command with full path:
/Users/adamstyrc/utils/adb
But it's not a solution. How to fix it ? My guess would be to manually load bash PATH variable add adb exec file to project but it's not elegant solution. Thanks in advance!

You need to be sure that the correct path settings are passed to IntelliJ.
If you for example modified the path settings, or if you ran intellij from a different terminal or user, then they might not be correct.
To be sure, close down IntelliJ, start a new terminal - then verify the path settings - and start IntelliJ manually from that terminal.

If you are running a 64 bit machine, try installing 32-bit libraries using
apt-get install ia32-libs

Error launching sqoop client on windows

Per the installation directions I run:
./bin/sqoop.sh client
and it returns error:
could not find or load main class org.apache.sqoop.shell.SqoopShell
I'm setting up Sqoop for the first time. I have the server up and running on Redhat Linux. Now I am stuck running the client on Windows Server 2012. I am running hadoop v2 and sqoop-1.99.3-bin-hadoop200. At the command line I verified java is installed by running "java -version" at the command line and seeing "1.8.0". Scoop is written in Java 1.6. Does that matter? I'm having difficulty locating an active download link to 1.6 for windows for troubleshooting.
I tried installing Cygwin and running the command. Same error.

Locate the directory traversal for the case of client in sqoop.sh
# Build class path with full path to each library
for f in $SQOOP_CLIENT_LIB/*.jar; do
CLASSPATH="${CLASSPATH}:$f"
done
Just add the following search and replace params (note changes of colon to semicolon in classpath)
# Build class path with full path to each library
PARAMSEARCH="/c/"
PARAMREPLACE="C:\\"
for f in $SQOOP_CLIENT_LIB/*.jar; do
f=${f/$PARAMSEARCH/$PARAMREPLACE}
CLASSPATH="${CLASSPATH};$f"
done

I had the same issue running on Windows 8.1. Turns out it's caused because sqoop.sh uses POSIX style directory paths. So / instead of . This results in the script being unable to set the correct CLASSPATH. This could have been remedied by using a cmd file for Windows. I don't know why they didn't do it. There are cmd files for catalina and such but not for launching sqoop!
Anyway I got around this issue by adding all the jar files in the shell\lib folder to CLASSPATH. You do have to add each & every jar file there and not just the folder path. A restart was required after this which was annoying. However the shell script will still not launch the client even after this change. The little trick I used is to just launch the client at the command prompt from the shell\lib folder with the following command
***java org.apache.sqoop.shell.SqoopShell***
Now I get the groovy prompt from where I can run all the commands provided here

I used the following steps to configure sqoop in a windows machine and now able to work with sqoop 1.99.3 successfully.
*Cygwin must be installed before continuing further steps. Also its just for using the native libraries, we can interact with sqoop directly from windows command prompt.
Save the sqoop package folder in “C:” drive name as sqoop
Copy the hadoop lib folder “hadoop” from C:\hadoop\share into C:\usr\lib\hadoop [If this directory doesn't exists, then create one]
Change the hadoop configuration properties in the file “sqoop.properties” from the location “C:\sqoop\server\conf” as below
at line:132
org.apache.sqoop.submission.engine.mapreduce.configuration.directory=C:\hadoop\etc\hadoop
Copy the sqoop.properties and sqoop_bootstrap.properties from “C:\sqoop\server\conf” into “C:\sqoop\server\bin”.
Set the environment variables for sqoop home as well as path:
SQOOP_HOME = C:\sqoop
Starting the server:
Open Command prompt (run as Administrator) and enter into the $SQOOP_HOME location and type command as follows
C:\sqoop> cd server\bin
C:\sqoop\server\bin> catalina start
The catalina server will be start and check it in the below location
http://localhost:12000/sqoop
Client Shell Command
Open the command prompt and enter the following command
java -classpath C:\sqoop\shell\lib\sqoop-shell-2.0.0-SNAPSHOT.jar;C:\sqoop\shell\lib\sqoop-common-2.0.0-SNAPSHOT.jar;C:\sqoop\shell\lib\sqoop-client-2.0.0-SNAPSHOT.jar;C:\sqoop\shell\lib\log4j-1.2.16.jar;C:\sqoop\shell\lib\json-simple-1.1.jar;C:\sqoop\shell\lib\jline-0.9.94.jar;C:\sqoop\shell\lib\jersey-core-1.11.jar;C:\sqoop\shell\lib\jersey-client-1.11.jar;C:\sqoop\shell\lib\jansi-1.7.jar;C:\sqoop\shell\lib\hamcrest-core-1.3.jar;C:\sqoop\shell\lib\groovy-all-1.8.5.jar;C:\sqoop\shell\lib\commons-lang-2.6.jar;C:\sqoop\shell\lib\commons-cli-1.2.jar org.apache.sqoop.shell.SqoopShell
The client shell command will be displayed as :
Sqoop Shell: Type 'help' or '\h' for help.
sqoop:000>
Hope this helps
Thanks

jenkins: error during ant build - java.exe not recognized

I've just started setting up a build server, using Jenkins.
Right now i have an extremely vanilla setup. Just trying to get it to run the default target of a specific build file. However whenever i run it jenkins reports this:
[build] $ cmd.exe /C '"ant.bat -file build.xml compileReleaseBuild && exit %%ERRORLEVEL%%"'
'"java.exe"' is not recognized as an internal or external command, operable program or batch file.
Build step 'Invoke Ant' marked build as failure
Finished: FAILURE
The odd thing is, i have my PATH and JAVA_HOME enviroment variables set up correctly, and i can run this command from the command line correctly. What is it that jenkins does that is different from running the commands by hand?

As stated by gareth_bowles, Jenkins runs as the system account on your machine. This means that any permissions or configuration (like your enviroment variables) have to be set in the system context as well. (more info here on setting env as the system account)
