Can't setup android project using libGDX

I'm trying to make an Android app using libGDX but I'm stuck at the setup. I've setup the project using the libGDX Setup App.

There I specify what I want to use and I click Generate.

enter image description here

Then I open IntelliJ and import the build.grade file just like the Setup App tells me. This gives me all the files I want and I try to add an Android Application configuration. I select the android module in the list but this gives me an error saying

Default Activity not found.

If I then switch from Launch default Activity to Launch and specify my own, then I can't choose the one I want, android/src/com/my_project/android/AndroidLauncher.java.

The libGDX wiki says

Android: A configuration for the Android project should be automatically created on project import. As such, you only have to select the configuration and run it!

What am I missing?

You can just have it deploy to the emulator/device by choosing Do not launch Activity. Then you can just launch it from the app icon.

With latest libgdx and Intellij Idea 13.x I was unable to configure a project automatically.

After tracing the problem, it seems that something was wrong with the gradle version Intellij Idea is using. I tried to resolve that by updating gradle and altering the PATH variable, but that didn't help.

I ended up manually importing the module into the project and building the project using gradlew.

So now everything "kinda works" when building from command line.
