I've looked at tons of similar questions on here but all of them either had a different issue (installing the .apk actually failed) or the solutions which worked for them have not worked for me, so I apologize if this question seems like a repost.

The issue I am having is that when I try to run an android application on an emulator in eclipse the apk never gets installed. The emulator itself works fine (all the default apps function properly, settings are correct, etc.) but the app I am trying to test is never installed onto the "phone." It never shows up in the app list or launches, and I never get a confirmation that installation completed. (The run configuration is set to launch the app)

Here is the relevant console output, with some names changed: 

```
[2011-10-19 10:54:45 - dining-android] Android Launch! 
[2011-10-19 10:54:45 - dining-android] adb is running normally.
[2011-10-19 10:54:45 - dining-android] Performing <src path>.Main activity launch
[2011-10-19 10:54:45 - dining-android] Automatic Target Mode: using existing emulator 'emulator-5554' running compatible AVD '1.5test'
[2011-10-19 10:54:45 - dining-android] Uploading <appname>.apk onto device 'emulator-5554'
[2011-10-19 10:54:59 - dining-android] Installing <appname>.apk...

```

It doesn't seem to make a difference whether I start the emulator manually and then try to run the app or if I run the app and let it start the emulator automatically, it will never go past this step. I left it running for about 8 hours (overnight) and nothing at all changed. The app is designated for the same version of android as the emulator runs, and everything looks correct in the settings of the emulator and eclipse as far as I can tell, except it never completes the installation of the app. 

Does anyone know why this would happen? I've tried restarting adb, using different versions of the emulator and/or app, changing the default run configuration, and various other solutions I've come across on the internet which didn't seem to have any effect whatsoever. I'd really appreciate some help on this if anyone has run into something similar. 

EDIT: I just tried using the "adb install" command in the command line on the .apk of the app while the emulator was running and it was also unsuccessful. I don't know whether this is related or another issue entirely. 

EDIT2: Command line install using "adb install" functions properly. However, eclipse still can't manage to install the app. Anyone know what might cause this?
