delete the environment variables that are defined when you run setup.py
like -

ANDROID_SDK_ROOT
NDK_ROOT etc

then run setup.py again.

@pabitrapadhy Can you please guide me to deleting the variables? Thank You.

@SonicX278

press [windows] button and type “environment variables”, then press enter.

Delete the following environment variables -

NDK_ROOT
ANDROID_SDK_ROOT
COCOS_CONSOLE_ROOT
COCOS_TEMPLATE_ROOT
ANT_ROOT

Press OK after delete.

Now, run setup.py again.
It will ask for all the paths again.

So im having another issue… So i redid all the variable and it works… But now when i open a new console and type in

C:\Users\USER>cocos new
'python' is not recognized as an internal or external command,
operable program or batch file.

Gives me that error…

Thanks!

you accidentally deleted your python environment variable

Just check in your system, you must have python somewhere.
Usually it should be named as Python27

open environment variables again.
under “path” variable add that to the end.
it should be something like this -
C:\agd\cocos2d-x-3.6\templates;C:\agd\cocos2d-x-3.6\tools\cocos2d-console\bin;C:\Python27

Press OK.
try again

So i tried doing what this guy in this video said to do…(starting at 8:55)

And when i try running “build_native.py”

I get this error

C:\Users\ruvim\Hiber\proj.android>build_native.py
Please use cocos console instead.

Running command: compile
