You must run Jenkins explicitly as current user

The android emulator plugin wants to access you .android folder. But it looks for it in the wrong directory. To fix this you have to run Jenkins from the according user. Otherwise you should get errors like:

    To do so follow this steps:

  • Open the Server Window and search for “Jenkins”.
  • Open the properties of this service.
  • Enter in the cmd “echo %USERDOMAIN%\%USERNAME%” and copy the output into the Properties Window.
  • The String is maybe changed to .\Username
  • Restart the service. If you don’t receive an 1069 Error you are done.
  • Otherwise: The user account must have a password. If not: create a password for this user.
