I have been developing my app for around two months, in the last week i have started getting the following error when trying to compile and run the app from Eclipse:
java.io.IOException: Unable to upload file: No space left on device
The APK comes out at 3.6Mb and the emulator is a recently created fresh one with 512Mb SD card and other specs identical to the G1.
Can anyone suggest a reason this might be happening?
Applications are not stored on the SD card, so that should not be a part of the equation. I've never seen a device fill upp like that, but just create a new virtual device, I guess...?
I've had that happen before, and I solved it by creating a new virtual device as Mr. Hedlund suggests. I didn't spend time trying to figure out why it happened, but creating the new device allowed my app to upload. My application is nearly twice as big as yours, and it uploads fine most of the time. Try deleting and re-creating the emulator as Mr. Hedlund suggests. It's worked for me on several occasions... Being new at Android development, I'm suspicious that I've been running into that issue due to resource leaks, but I haven't chased the problem down yet because I'm still concentrating on getting my app to work correctly... Hope this helps!
I encountered this issue as well. After recreating the AVD multiple times and still encountering the failure, I double-checked the size of the .apk. It had ballooned to 46MB because I accidentally included a set of camera images in the 'assets' folder. After removing those, the size dropped to <1MB. Make sure to double (and triple) check that you only have the files you need in the directory structure.
