问题:

Jenkins cannot run an android emulator.

Then, I try to run emulator the same as jenkins. The problem is android emulator is not starting to listen to the port. First, I created and started emulator successfully with the 'user' user as follow:

user@host:~$android create avd -f -a -s WVGA800 -n test -t android-23 --abi google_apis/x86_64

So everything is okey with 'user' user, but for 'jenkins' user I have problem

jenkins@host:~$ android create avd -f -a -s WVGA800 -n test -t android-23 --abi google_apis/x86_64

and that is it! No matter how much I wait the line of "emulator: Listening for console connections on port: 5554" is not coming!

BTW, kvm is running okey for both users

$ kvm-ok
INFO: /dev/kvm exists
KVM acceleration can be used

Also, "ANDROID_HOME" and "HOME" environment parameters are okey.

Any suggestion?

UPDATE

I noticed this problem is not happening when I'm using google_apis/armeabi-v7a abi. So I believe this problem is related to kvm installation, but I have not idea how to fix it.

UPDATE #2 After I successfully run the emulator and post my answer below, I fall to this problem again!! and my solution is not working anymore :( BTW I found another clue that I want to share it with you here. Following command is not starting to listen to the port as I mentioned before

android-sdk-linux/tools/emulator -avd test -no-snapshot-load -no-snapshot-save -no-window

But surprisingly, this command is running okey

android-sdk-linux/tools/qemu/linux-x86_64/qemu-system-x86_64 -avd test -no-snapshot-load -no-snapshot-save -no-window

I guess emulator should run qemu-system-x86_64 but somewhere it makes some mistakes and run emulator64-x86 instead. Event after this finding I cannot figure out how to put this command in Android Emulator plugin! So the question is open again.

回答1:

From my update I had some clues that this problem is related to kvm installation. I was using this post to install kvm. On the other hand, I noticed user user is a member of libvirt group which is related to kvm permissions. So I add jenkins user to libvirt group and bang! the problem solved.

usermod -a -G libvirt jenkins
