I am trying to install my own android application on SDcard using windows platform. First I set

android:installLocation="preferExternal"

in AndroidManifest.xml

Then I launched emulator through eclipse. While creating this AVD I had given SDcard size 500 MiB and had set the SDcard support property also in AVD Manager. But the error is

[2011-03-22 05:01:31 – SDcardDemo]
Failed to install SDcardDemo.apk on
device ’emulator-5554! [2011-03-22
05:01:31 – SDcardDemo] (null)

I also tried to install using command line.

D:\DATA\C\android-sdk_r06-windows\android-sdk-windows\platform-tools>adb install -avd test_AVD SDcardDemo.apk
