I am trying to set up maven for my project and I am getting this error
"JAVA_HOME should point to a JDK not a JRE"
I know there are already similar question but it did not work. How can I point JAVA_HOME to JDK in windows. I am using IntelliJ IDEA
Control Panel -> System and Security -> System -> Advanced system settings -> Advanced -> Environment Variables -> New System Variable
I am going through the same process on Mac OSX. I installed the latest JDK, then installed Maven. Someone suggested I set the JAVA_HOME variable so I pointed it to the JDK installation folder. When running Maven mvn compile exec:java I received the same error NB: JAVA_HOME should point to a JDK not a JRE.
All I did was unset the JAVA_HOME variable and it worked.
do it thru cmd -
echo %JAVA_HOME%
set set JAVA_HOME=C:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.8.0
echo %JAVA_HOME%
I met the same problem. (Window 10 environment)
I solved it by deleting the JAVA_HOME="C:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.8.0_161\bin" in the User Variables instead of adding to the System Variables directly.
Then I test that editing JAVA_HOME="C:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.8.0_161\" worked too.
When I run "mvn -version" in command prompt window, it shows "Java home: C:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.8.0_161\jre".
In conclusion, I guess the JAVA_HOME shouldn't include bin directory.
I added JAVA_HOME path in user variable and omit the "/bin".
I tried every method given here but only this worked for me.
I have spent 3 hours for solving the error The JAVA_HOME environment variable is not defined correctly. This environment variable is needed to run this program NB: JAVA_HOME should point to a JDK not a JRE
Finally I got the solution. Please set the JAVA_HOME value by Browse Directory button/option. Try to find the jdk path. Ex: C:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.8.0_181
It will remove the semicolon issue. :D
My JAVA_HOME was set correctly but I solved this issue by running Command Prompt as Administrator
In Mac OS the hierarchy library > java > JavaVirtualMachines - (inside this folder there are different versions of jdk) select your desired version and inside jdk-version folder there is a contents folder inside contents you'll find "Home" folder
while declaring $JAVA_HOME you haVE TO GIVE THAT HOME PATH for example-
(normal shell commands)
open terminal type vi .bash_profile
(to open file name bash_profile)
press "i" to enable insert mode
give java home path as-
export JAVA_HOME=/Library/java/JavaVirtualMachines/jdk1.8.0_131.jdk/Contents/Home
After editing press esc to exit editing mode
then :wq to quit and save
This will remove JAVA_HOME should point to a JDK not a JRE error
and also saves you from future errors
For mac OS, this worked for me... none of the above solutions
$ vim .bash_profile
export JAVA_HOME=$(/usr/libexec/java_home)
$ source .bash_profile
Be sure to use the correct path!
I mistakenly had written C:\Program Files\Java\. Changing it to C:\Program Files\Java\jdk\11.0.6\ fixed the issue.
In cmd I then checked for the version of maven with mvn -version.
Just as an addition to other answers
For macOS users, you may have a ~/.mavenrc file, and that is where mvn command looks for definition of JAVA_HOME first. So check there first and make sure the directory JAVA_HOME points to is correct in that file.
if You have
The JAVA_HOME environment variable is not defined correctly
This environment variable is needed to run this program
NB: JAVA_HOME should point to a JDK not a JRE
Error
so do one thing ...type
C:>dir/x
and you will see the PROGRA~1 or May ~2
and After int Environment Variable Chang The JAVA_HOME Dir Like This
JAVA_HOME:- C:\PROGRA~1\Java\jdk1.8.0_144\
also Set In Path :-%JAVA_HOME%\bin;
And it Works
Make sure that you do NOT have a JRE path, if you have delete it.
Add JAVA_HOME in the System variable. Variable value: C:\Program Files\Java\jdk-10.0.2 (location of JDK without bin)
Add M2 in the System variable. Variable value: C:\dev\maven\apache-maven-3.5.4\bin (location of maven with bin)
Add M2_HOME in the System variable. Variable value: C:\dev\maven\apache-maven-3.5.4 (location of maven without bin)
Add %JAVA_HOME% and %M2% in Path System Variable or C:\Program Files\Java\jdk-10.0.2 and C:\dev\maven\apache-maven-3.5.4\bin --> For windows 10, just add the location. For other version, at the end of the Variable Value field add semicolon then the location Ex: ;%JAVA_HOME%;%M2%
I did not check if the addition or removal of bin changes the result but nonetheless this works for me.
In addition to sovas' response on how to add the JAVA_HOME variable, if it was working before and stopped working, ensure that the path still exists. I updated Java recently which deleted the old version, invalidating my JAVA_HOME environment variable.
This worked for me for Windows 10, Java 8_144.
If the path contains spaces, use the shortened path name. For example, C:\Progra~1\Java\jdk1.8.0_65
Under System Variables add below
JAVA_HOME = C:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.8.0_201
JDK_HOME = %JAVA_HOME%\bin
M2_HOME = C:\apache-maven-3.6.0
MAVEN_BIN = %M2_HOME%\bin
MAVEN_HOME = %M2_HOME%
Under path Add these
%M2_HOME%
%JDK_HOME%
you should only add this path to Manage Jenkins -> Global Tool Configuration -> JDK
for java 11
/usr/lib/jvm/java-11-openjdk-amd64
for java 8
/usr/lib/jvm/java-8-openjdk-amd64
And then use same in your jenkins jobs accordingly
In IntelliJ IDEA go to File>Project Structure>SDK>JDK home path.
Copy it and then go to
My Computer>Advanced Settings>Environment Variables
Change the JAVA_HOME path to what you have copied.
Then open new cmd, and try mvn -v
It worked for me !!!
Add JAVA_HOME = C:\Program Files\Java\jdk(version) in User variable, it works for me. For me, it doesn't work with bin and even if I create JAVA_HOME in system variable
just remove the semicolon at the end of JAVA_HOME variable's value.
set JAVA_HOME as C:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.8.0_171
It worked for me.
I had this issue but for Mac Os, I set the JAVA_HOME variable in the .bash_profile to be export JAVA_HOME=$(/usr/libexec/java_home) then save. After that ran source ~/.bash_profile finally mvn -version and it fixed the issue. Hope that helps
First, ensure that the Maven bin is in your Environmental Variable PATH entry.
If it is, make sure your entries aren't somehow out of order, and that JAVA_HOME is before Path in the list, or any entry that references %JAVA_HOME%. I was getting the same error when I was trying to check my maven version.
I have a few extra path variables that reference %JAVA_HOME%, or a different version of a JDK and Maven was mixed in between. I moved my Maven path entry below my %JAVA_HOME% one and now everything is working when I use Maven from cmd.
But it is Windows, so perhaps my just opening and closing the Environment Variables setting somehow made everything better.
Windows 10 Home for me:
I'm studying maven through a udemy course. First time environment variables were ok. I had on JAVA_HOME on SYSTEM VARIABLE like this:
D:\Install\Java\jdk-12.0.1;D:\Install\apache-maven-3.5.4-bin\apache-maven-3.5.4
After some days, don't know what's happened, I began to receive:
C:\Users\Franco>mvn -version
The JAVA_HOME environment variable is not defined correctly
This environment variable is needed to run this program
NB: JAVA_HOME should point to a JDK not a JRE
After trying all above, I tried to delete jdk the entry on SYSTEM VARIABLES, and putting it on USER VARIABLES, so now I have:
JAVA_HOME on USER VARIABLES: D:\Install\Java\jdk-12.0.1
JAVA_HOME on SYSTEM VARIABLES: D:\Install\apache-maven-3.5.4-bin\apache-maven-3.5.4
now restarting CMD I have:
C:\Users\Franco>mvn -version
Apache Maven 3.5.4 (1edded0938998edf8bf061f1ceb3cfdeccf443fe; 2018-06-17T20:33:14+02:00)
Maven home: D:\Install\apache-maven-3.5.4-bin\apache-maven-3.5.4\bin\..
Java version: 12.0.1, vendor: Oracle Corporation, runtime: D:\Install\Java\jdk-12.0.1
Default locale: en_US, platform encoding: Cp1252
OS name: "windows 10", version: "10.0", arch: "amd64", family: "windows"
In my case the error started showing up as Java version got updated. So JAVA_HOME path became invalid.
Please check
Location referred to in JAVA_HOME exists.
If it's like my case, update the value from the old path to the new path.
(A better fix would be to set java update such that it auto upgrades the JAVA_HOME reference.)
Even after trying this solution from sovas which is accepted if it does not work
RESTART intellij / CMD prompt instead of trying on the existing opened
i was trying the command from terminal under intellij but still getting same problem.
Do reopen cmd / INTELLIJ and the variable will get reloaded. It fixed the problem for me (ofcourse after correcting the Path to JDK not jre and removing the bin
I have recently downloaded Maven and followed the instructions given on this this page. I already have ant installed on my machine.
Now, if I want to verify that Maven is installed perfectly or not it is giving me error that JAVA_HOME is not set correctly, but same works perfectly fine for ANT.
For Maven I tried :
1. open cmd
2. type mvn -version
3. Error appeared :
C:\Users\Admin>mvn -version
ERROR: JAVA_HOME is set to an invalid directory.
JAVA_HOME = "C:\Program Files\Java\jre7\bin"
Please set the JAVA_HOME variable in your environment to match the
location of your Java installation
For ANT I tried and worked :
1. open cmd
2. type mvn -version
3. Apache Ant(TM) version 1.9.1 compiled on May 15 2013
I went to the directory to check that java.exe is actually there in that directory or not and it was there. I checked the environment variables they set fine. I restarted the system and checked again but same problem. Please let me know what am I missing.
JAVA_HOME should point to jdk directory and not to jre directory. Also JAVA_HOME should point to the home jdk directory and not to jdk/bin directory.
Assuming that you have JDK installed in your program files directory then you need to set the JAVA_HOME like this:
JAVA_HOME="C:\Program Files\Java\jdkxxx"
xxx is the jdk version
Follow this link to learn more about setting JAVA_HOME:
http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E19182-01/820-7851/inst_cli_jdk_javahome_t/index.html
Do not include bin in your JAVA_HOME env variable
Follow the instruction in here.
JAVA_HOMEshould be like this
JAVA_HOME=C:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.7.0_07
JAVA_HOME = C:\Program Files\Java\jdk(JDK version number)
Example: C:\Program Files\Java\jdk-10
And then restart you command prompt it works.
Just remember to add quotes into the path if you have a space in your path to java home.
C:\Program Files\java\javaxxx\ doesn't work
but
"C:\Program Files\java\javaxxx\" does.
The JAVA_HOME should point to the JDK home rather than the JRE home if you are going to be compiling stuff, likewise - I would try and install the JDK in a directory that doesn't include a space. Even if this is not your problem now, it can cause problems in the future!
You are pointing your JAVA_HOME to the JRE which is the Java Runtime Environment. The runtime environment doesn't have a java compiler in its bin folder.
You should download the JDK which is the Java Development Kit. Once you've installed that, you can see in your bin folder that there's a file called javac.exe. That's your compiler.
JAVA_HOME should point to jdk directory like in the image with new variable, like below
PATH should point to jdk bin like below
Run the below command in your terminal and restart it.
> set JAVA_HOME="C:\Program Files\Java\jdk-xx.xx"
xx.xx is the java version
i have Windows Vista and i'm trying to install maven and test it.
But i realised that i have a problem with JAVA and i have to solve first.
I do Start->Run->cmd
and i type in the command line,
C:\>mvn clean
i get the following error
ERROR: JAVA_HOME not found in your environment.
Please set the JAVA_HOME variable in your environment to match the
location of your Java installation
So i say: Let's set the PATH for Java and i did:
Start->Control Panel->System->Advanced System Settings->Environment Variable->System Variables
Edit the PATH variable
C:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.6.0_32;C:\apache-maven-3.0.4\bin;
But then i get the same error when i do:
C:\>mvn clean
Then i typed in the cmd prompt:
C:\>java -version
java version "1.7.0_07"
Java(TM) SE Runtime Environment (build 1.7.0_07-b11)
and i realise that the Java version that is running is not located under the
"C:\Program Files\Java" directory
The only JDKs i have are:
jdk1.6.0_29
jdk1.6.0_32
Then i did Run->cmd
C:\>where java
C:\Windows\System32\java.exe
(Recently i downloaded IDE Eclipse and IDE IntelliJ and i don't know if these apps
come with the JDK).
Where can i find my JDK installation in Windows and set the path in environmental variables?
Go to
Start->Control Panel->System->Advanced System Settings->Environment Variable->user variables
Click on new button
give the
variable name : JAVA_HOME
variable value: C:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.6.0_32
in that way you setup your java home and try
Also make sure to take new command prompt after you did any changes in environment variables
Eclipse comes bundled with a JDK, I believe you need a seperate one to run maven.
My environment variables look like this.
JAVA_HOME = C:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.6.0_33
Path = (tacked on the end) ;%JAVA_HOME%\bin;C:\Program Files\Spring Tools Suite\apache-maven-3.0.3\bin
This is all working but as you can see I got maven by installing STS. It's just an eclipse distro which comes bundled with maven (among other things).
You can also set java home from command line prompt. But this will be valid only in your session and it will be gone once you close your command line session.
Hope it helps.
set JAVA_HOME=C:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.6.0_33
Late to the game, but run this in an elevated command prompt:
setx /M JAVA_HOME "path_to_Java"
This will set the path for your machine and not the user. Remove /M to have it set just for the user account.
The guide at SS64 (and setx /?) say you're supposed to have the /M switch at the end, but my personal experience is that it doesn't always work at the end.
I am programming through java 1.6 u_17, but i have JRE version 6 and JRE version 7 installed, so how to run my compiled program from JDK 1.6 to run through the JRE 6 only?
By Default, it runs my class files through JRE 7, how to change this behavior? Any idea of setting Class path in windows 7, as we does it for JDK.
The following is shown in my command prompt
E:\JAVA>javac -version
javac 1.6.0_17

Looks like you are using Windows. Please go the Environment Variables and define a user variable as:
Right Click(My Computers) -> Advanced -> Environment Variables -> Add
Variable Name = JAVA_HOME
Variable Value = Root Folder of Java 1.6.0_17 installation
Also in the same screen, please check the PATH variable and make sure **bin** Folder of Java 1.6.0_17 installation is added in the path preferably in the beginning and remove the Java 7 from the path, if it is there.
I fix this problem by removing the java.exe in system32 folder. And then in the cmd the java command refer to the jdk set in the path enviroment variable.
java.exe is also available in C:\windows\system32 and in your case its version might be 1.7..
Since your path has C:\windows\system32 first. no matter how to set rest of the path, sonar always will load jre7. (refer to conf\wrapper.conf in Sonar directory, by default it has wrapper.java.command=java)
To fix this, change following property of the "wrapper.conf" file
wrapper.java.command=C:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.6.0_XX\bin\java
this will fix the issue irrespective of the path variables.
For those who had the same problem I suggest reading this thread:
https://superuser.com/questions/479889/wrong-java-version-being-reported
Quote of wmz: "To check what actually executes when you run 'java -version' run from command line:
for %I in (java.exe) do #echo %~$PATH:I"
Windows is checking the PATH variable to find an executable named java and using that to launch your application. It is quite normal in a development environment to have many installations (as you do). However this calls on you to manage your environment.
There are two ways for you to set environment variables in Windows. By going to My Computer > Advanced Settings > Environment Variables as described above, you can set a variabler to your JDK installation and then update the Path to find the bin directory in that installation. Youy have the choice of updating System variables (all users) or user variables (your account only).
Personally, I prefer not to use the system/user environment variables as this provides less flexibility. You can use bat files to explicitly set the Path for a specific moment in time, or indeed to override the JAVA_HOME to point to a different installation.
If you are using an IDE you can usually specify the target runtime on a per project basis. Alternatively, when running the program, provide the fully qualified path to the version of the java executable you wish to use.
I had same problem. Issue is that Java installation will copy a java.exe, javaw.exe and javaws.exe to windows/system32 directory. You must have installed JDK7 recently.
I just removed those files from Windows/System32 directory, however, kept older version in path. This solved the issue.
Try it out.
I was facing the similar problem. I am using Java 7 and Java 8 together. The Java 8 was installed in the machine but the 7 set-up I copied from another system. I have already set the JAVA_HOME & path pointing to 7. But when I try to echo %path%, it shows the Jdk 8 in the class path. after lots of google, I have found "C:\ProgramData\Oracle\Java\javapath" in the path. Removing the line from the path solved the problem.
Background
I'm using Windows 8.1 and I have both JDK6 and JDK8 installed. For development purpose, I needed to get java version "1.6.0_45" over the command java -version and javac 1.6.0_45 over javac -version. The second command was working as expected after setting JAVA_HOME as Home folder of JDK6 and adding %JAVA_HOME/bin% in Path. However the first command was still returning java version "1.8.0_71"
Troubleshooting
I could find the an entry in the Path environment variable which points to C:\ProgramData\Oracle\Java. This folder actually contains short cut to java.exe of JDK8.
Proper solution: Uninstall JDK 8
Workaround:Edit the short cut file so that it points towards java.exe inside %JAVA_HOME%\bin (Please replace the variable with actual folder)
set the PATH variable to your jdk6\bin directory. so that it will pick the javac and java from jdk6.
for setting the path variable go to Environment Variables.
After setting the path variables you need to restart your command prompt. (NOT the computer).
Just right click on MyComputer, then Advanced System Settings-->Environment Variables-->New
Then in the "variable Name" text field add the string "PATH" or if it already exists select PATH from the list and click edit then append the path for "bin" folder in java in program files to the Variable value text field followed by a semicolon (;), if not exits add the path of bin directory of your java folder in "Variable Value" field and click "OK".
If you want to check the result, open up a command prompt and type "java" then hit enter.
For windows 7(X86) path setting:
first step:
Mycomputer(Right click)-->properties-->advanced settings-->environment variales-->new
(user variable)
on this first varible name: "" JAVA_HOME "" value: "" C:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.7.0_45 ""
second variable name: "" PATH "" value: "" C:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.7.0_45\bin;.; ""
There are two types of path for java : Permanent & Temporary.
Here is the video tutorial describing how to set path for Java?
How to Set path for Java : https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rM4Qq3Ua7Sk
This video tutorial will guide you in setting permanent and temporary path for Java. Simply follow the steps. This will work with any version of Java, JDK or JRE. In video I have used path of JDK, Simply copy path of JRE instead of JDK and rest is same.
OR read the tutorial here : How to Set path for Java : http://aatul.me/2011/08/24/how-to-set-path-for-java/
Hope this solutions will help you.
OS: Windows XP
I am using yuicompressor-2.4.2 to compress some CSS before uploading to my server.
But when I run it, the following exception appears:
Exception in thread "main" java.lang.UnsupportedClassVersionError:
com/yahoo/platform/yui/compressor/Bootstrap (Unsupported major.minor version 48.0)
So I think it's because of the JRE.
I typed in the command:
cmd: java -version
And it says:
java version "1.3.1_01"
But it should say 1.6.0_16, since I have installed the latest version.
What should I do to make Java use the latest version instead of the old one?
Set the environment variable JAVA_HOME pointing to the directory where you have jdk 1.6.0
set JAVA_HOME=your_path_to_jdk1.6
set PATH=%JAVA_HOME%/bin;.;..;%PATH%
That's from a command window. Also you can do it from "My PC > Properties > Advanced > Environment variables"
Go to the system32 directory C:\Windows\System32 and delete following 3 files
java.exe
javaw.exe
javaws.exe
Now create a JAVA_HOME environment variable with value={root path of your jdk installation} and add the path till bin folder of your jdk in the PATH environment variable.
Open a fresh command prompt and run java -version to confirm the change
If you are using windows 7/10 go to command prompt and type
where java
Delete all the symbolic link shows below other than your actual installation directory.
Even if correctly added all the environment variables still sometime you can get wrong versions especially when you have multiple version installed in your system and want to switch between them.
On Windows, the JRE installs a java executable in the Windows directory, which should be the first java in your path. This is just a wrapper that looks in the Windows Registry to find the Java home directory (should be "%SystemDrive%\Program Files\Java\jre6" for Java 6) and runs using the libraries there.
Run %SystemRoot%\system32\java -version and see what you get. If that is Java 6, you have entries in your path before %SystemRoot%\system32 (which really should be first). Either fix your %PATH% variable, or you'll have to be explicit whenever you want to run this version of Java.
If running that instance of java doesn't report Java 6, its not installed (correctly). Uninstall and try installing again.
If you are having trouble because of the PATH, it is because you or some software you installed monkeyed with it; I recommend using the default which is to have system32 first. Everything works fine if the defaults are used.
Also, %JAVA_HOME% is not used by the JRE itself at all. Some common Java applications like tomcat and ant honor the %JAVA_HOME% setting, so perhaps yuicompressor does too. But this is a de facto convention, not a standard.
after where java in Command prompt
for example
where java
C:\Program Files\Common Files\Oracle\Java\javapath
C:\Program Files\Java\jdk-11.0.10\bin\java.exe
delete C:\Program Files\Common Files\Oracle folder
then close all terminals and write java -version in the terminal. it will show the right version
worked for me
You should modify your PATH environment variable:
My PC > Right click > properties > Advanced > Environment variables
And modify "Path"
Append at the end the path to your 1.6 installation:
;C:\jdk1.6.xxx\bin
and remove the previous one if present.
Add %JAVA_HOME%/bin to your PATH environment variable where JAVA_HOME is set to your JRE6u16 directory
I had the same problem. In System Properties > Environment Variables > System Variables > PATH make sure there is no other path associated with Java. To make sure, type in and check Java paths.
where java
Re-open Command Prompt and type java -version again. I hope this helps.
first by the following command, you should be aware of .exe file which runs when you type java in the command prompt
where java
C:\Program Files\Common Files\Oracle\Java\javapath
C:\Program Files\Java\jdk-11.0.10\bin\java.exe
as you see above , cmd first reads java from
C:\Program Files\Common Files\Oracle\Java\javapath
so go to the path above and remove java files .
then it should work fine
You should check your PATH environment variable. It is possible that some application you have installed has put its version of the jre in front of yours in the path.
It looks like the older Java version is still on the system PATH environment variable (where the OS looks for commands) or JAVA_HOME (where yuicompressor may look for the java executable)
How those variables are changed depends on your operating system.
