I'm running on ubuntu 12.04 and when I put in the terminal java -version I got this message:
java version "1.7.0_05"
Java(TM) SE Runtime Environment (build 1.7.0_05-b05)
Java HotSpot(TM) 64-Bit Server VM (build 23.1-b03, mixed mode)
but despite that, if I put in the terminal javadoc I receive a message as it isn't installed in my machine.
The Java Runtime Environment (JRE) doesn't include javadoc. It includes only the things required to run Java programs, not to develop them.
You need the JDK (Java Development Kit) which includes developer tools like javadoc, in addition to everything found in the JRE.
See the Ubuntu Java documentation.

I'm trying to install JDK8 as a platform on NetBeans 12.2, but I keep getting this error message:
"Cannot detect and install the selected platform. The java or javac may not be executable."
Is there a way around this? Or is there a version of JDK8 that won't yield this error message?
Further: I should have mentioned that I'm on MACOS Big Sur.
Here's what I get with java -version in Terminal:
java version "15.0.2" 2021-01-19 Java(TM) SE Runtime Environment (build 15.0.2+7-27) Java HotSpot(TM) 64-Bit Server VM (build 15.0.2+7-27, mixed mode, sharing)
And here's what I get with javac -version:
javac 15.0.2
You are probably getting this message because the JDK executables haven't been added to your path as environment variables. Directly from the official java website, here's a guide on how to fix this problem.
On of our (remote) developers needs to install FDT (an Eclipse based IDE) to compile some legacy ActionScript code. I've got FDT working on my Ubuntu 18.04 laptop just fine, but the dev is having trouble getting it to work on his Mac. When he has Java version 7, 8 or 9 installed he gets a message saying
we need legacy java you can download it here...
and if he uses Java version 6, it says it needs version 7 or more.
So I checked which version I have on my Ubuntu 18.04 laptop so he can get the same one, and to my surprise it says:
$ java -version
java version "1.8.0_191"
Java(TM) SE Runtime Environment (build 1.8.0_191-b12)
Java HotSpot(TM) 64-Bit Server VM (build 25.191-b12, mixed mode)
As far as I know Java is WAY ahead of version 1.8. So I logged into our production server (Ubuntu 16.04) and there we've got something similar:
$ java -version
openjdk version "1.8.0_191"
OpenJDK Runtime Environment (build 1.8.0_191-8u191-b12-0ubuntu0.16.04.1-b12)
OpenJDK 64-Bit Server VM (build 25.191-b12, mixed mode)
I checked out the OpenJDK website and there it says OpenJDK is now at version 11.
What version of Java my laptop is actually running so our dev can get the same version?
You are using Java 8.
The Mac problem is a historic one because the legacy question is for a 32-bit JVM for some programs and you need a 64-bit for Java 8.
Install the Java 6 the programs want and then install A newer java from oracle and he should be good to go.
I am trying to replace standard JVM of jdk1.8.0_112 with Dynamic Code Evolution VM using
DCEVM-light-8u112-installer.jar
but when i checked jvm version after patching with command
c:>java -version
it is still showing same Server VM as below
1 java version "1.8.0_112"
2 Java(TM) SE Runtime Environment (build 1.8.0_112-b15)
3 Java HotSpot(TM) 64-Bit Server VM (build 25.112-b15, mixed mode)
at line number 3, i am expecting type of Server VM as
Dynamic Code Evolution 64-Bit Server VM (build 25.71-b01-dcevmlight-10, mixed mode)
please guide me on this
The light version of the DCEVM project provides a single jvm.dll file that is a replacement for the default jvm.dll file included with Oracle/OpenJDK JDKs. The light version does not overwrite the file included with the JDK/JRE installation but rather installs the DCEVM JVM as an alternate implementation. Therefore, java -version will continue to show the default Java version details.
If DCEVM was installed successfully, java -version -XXaltjvm=dcevm will show the DCEVM version details, as expected.
java -version will return the DCEVM JVM version details if the full version of DCEVM is installed. Currently the DCEVM project provides full binaries only for Java 7. However, there is very little functional difference between the light and full versions so there is no real need to install the full version.
I installed the latest version of Java and when I try to run eclipse it says:
Version 1.6.0_65 of the JVM is not suitable for this product. Version: 1.8 or greater is required.
I searched many forums and found the java -version command. When I run from the terminal I get:
java version "1.6.0_65" Java(TM) SE Runtime Environment (build
1.6.0_65-b14-466.1-11M4716) Java HotSpot(TM) 64-Bit Server VM (build 20.65-b04-466.1, mixed mode)
But when I open Java on my system preferences it says I have 1.8.
Why? What do I do?
It says 1.6 because it is the pre-installed version in your system. But in order to install different version of Java, you need to install the latest development kit from Oracle's website i.e. http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/java/javase/downloads/jdk8-downloads-2133151.html
When I install myeclipse, it shows "needs java SE6 Environment",
How do I resolve this problem?
I have already installed jdk1.7 in my OS X Yosemite.
/Users/**** $ java -version
java version "1.7.0_75"
Java(TM) SE Runtime Environment (build 1.7.0_75-b13)
Java HotSpot(TM) 64-Bit Server VM (build 24.75-b04, mixed mode)
This is a problem with the online installer, which is a 32-bit application while Java 7 on OS X is 64-bit only.
You have two solutions : you can just download the offline installer, which should work fine, according to this support thread.
If this doesn't work, you'll have to install Java 6, which you can find here.
This was a problem with earlier installers. All current installers will not have this problem. Please download the latest release.
