Kotlin could not find the required JDK tools in the Java installation 'C:\Program Files (x86)\Java\jre1.8.0_221'

Open freduard opened this issue 5 years ago • 10 comments

Kotlin could not find the required JDK tools in the Java installation 'C:\Program Files (x86)\Java\jre1.8.0_221' used by Gradle. Make sure Gradle is running on a JDK, not JRE.

How do I fix this? I have set my JAVA_HOME to 'C:\Program Files (x86)\Java\jre1.8.0_221' and added it to my Path. Can someone help?

Hey, the error speaks for itself. You need Java 8 or above JDK and not just JRE. Go to the link below and download the jdk file. Java 8

[Solved]

  1. Download Gradle from here OR from Direct link
  2. Unzip the downloaded file in C://
  3. Update the /bin path in System Environment Variables Run the program and check if the problem is fixed? Proceed next if you still got the error(s)
  4. Download Java SE Runtime Environment 8u261 here
  5. Update the /bin path in System Environment Variables This will fix the issue. Lemme know if you still got errors

Uninstall any previous version of java and gradle then reinstall as @UsamaSarwar said. It'll solve your problem guaranteed.

Ni8hawk solution solved the problem for me, if it is the java version, so I uninstall and install the one he indicates.
