I’m trying to run a demo on my Android device. I just can’t set the ANT_HOME correctly. Editor keeps telling me it can’t find ant.bat. I’m new to Unreal. This is the first frustrating and meaningless problem. Please give a hint to solve this.

Hello Jieke -
In your Project Settings under Platforms >> Android SDK, have you setup the directories there to link to your Android Development information?
If you haven’t take a look at the Android Quick Start Guide found here:
Setting Up Unreal Engine Projects for Android Development | Unreal Engine 5.3 Documentation
Thank You
Eric Ketchum
Yes, of course. I’m using windows 10.
AndroidWorks is supposed to do all the jobs.

Please help check the settings in these two images. Is there anything wrong ?
Please help check the log file.
I’m really blocked here. I need to break through this.
Hi Eric Ketchum,
The problem is resolved.
The root cause is that I failed to correctly set the “Location of ANT” in Project Settings>>Platform>>Android SDK>>SDKConfig.
I set it to D:\Android\NVPACK\apache-ant-1.8.2\bin as for cocos2d,
while it should be just D:\Android\NVPACK\apache-ant-1.8.2.
I finally found this out by downloading and debugging the source code. It’s so glad to see the demo running on my device, hah ha.
Thanks
Jieke
