I am very curious about the new Anbox emulator for running Android apps on PC. Unfortunately I can't make it work on my PC.
After having installed via snap there is a new entry in the Gnome menu list. When I use it, nothing happens. I then tried to start it via terminal with the result, but at least some output.
Starting the session manager seems to work. This step was recommended in a previous question close to mine (Anbox isn't starting up on my PC at all).
anbox session-manager
Session manager can be started without error or any message. It just seems to run an Android instance fine, which I even can access with adb shell.
Anbox demon ("anboxd") and Init-Script ("anbox-init.sh") are running, too (checked with "ps -A").
But when I try to start Anbox Launcher, the Launcher cannot be started:
anbox launch
[WW 2017-04-14 17:46:12] [launch.cpp:115@operator()] Stop waiting as we're already waiting for too long. Something is wrong
[WW 2017-04-14 17:46:12] [launch.cpp:116@operator()] with your setup and the container may have failed to boot.
Same result when I start the Anbox icon from launcher (here I started it via shell):
anbox launch --package=org.anbox.appmgr
[WW 2017-07-05 15:26:54] [launch.cpp:194@operator()] Stopped waiting as we've already waited for too long. Something
[WW 2017-07-05 15:26:54] [launch.cpp:195@operator()] is wrong with your setup or the container has failed to boot.
[WW 2017-07-05 15:26:54] [launch.cpp:196@operator()] If you think you found a bug please don't hesitate to file on
[WW 2017-07-05 15:26:54] [launch.cpp:197@operator()] at https://github.com/anbox/anbox/issues/new
Any ideas? As you can see, the above mentioned other response does not work.. Thank you in advance! Spectas
