Hi Tiemo, Currently Java 9 and 10 are not supported, because of some packages being reshuffled/removed/renamed in these versions, so LC does not find the expected tools in the expected location.
So this is a bug in LC, not a compatibility issue. There is a bug report here: https://quality.livecode.com/show_bug.cgi?id=20719 However, we should have mentioned this temporary restriction on the lessons pages. I will make sure we add it now. So for now we advice people to install *only* Java 8. In my setup, I have installed: jdk1.8.0_131.jdk SDK Tools v24.4 The older versions of Android SDK Tools now are a bit difficult to find, as they are well-hidden in Google's archives, but for anyone interested: http://dl-ssl.google.com/android/repository/tools_r24.4-windows.zip http://dl-ssl.google.com/android/repository/tools_r24.4-macosx.zip http://dl-ssl.google.com/android/repository/tools_r24.4-linux.zip Best, Panos -- On Fri, Jun 15, 2018 at 2:00 PM, Tiemo Hollmann TB via use-livecode < [email protected]> wrote: > Hello, Just wasted again one day with these nasty compatibility issues.
