Double-click
Expected behavior
When user double-click to Jmeter jar file, Jmeter interface should open.
Actual behavior
I am using Windows 10. I have Java 8 and JDK 17 installed on my computer. And I have Apache Jmeter 5.5 and 5.6.2 When I double-click the Jmeter jar file, it does not open. I also had it open the jar files in the bin folder with javaw, but this solution did not work.
Steps to reproduce the problem
- Go to the 'Program Files'
- Click Apache Jmeter
- Go to the bin folder
- Find Apache Jmeter jar file an double click
JMeter Version
5.6.2
Java Version
17
OS Version
Windows 10 Pro 22H2
Hi @alikavlak2021,
not part of the JMeter developer team, though doing developments atm. I did notice that JMeter does launch, but the window will be put in background and in my case, it will be hidden by other windows.
I guess you do not see the apache icon on the task bar when it launches. Could you send details about your JDK with the command 'java --version' from the command line you are using ?
Could you as well from a command line send the output of the command 'where java' ?
Have you tried to open a command line from the JMeter directory and execute the command 'java -jar ApacheJMeter.jar' ?
In my case, I have been using an Open JDK v11 and an Oracle JDK v19 with no problems.
Hi, Here are the commands you requested from me and their results: Also when I try with 'java -jar "C:\Program Files\apache-jmeter-5.6.2\bin\ApacheJMeter.jar" (FAILED) But when I try with 'java -jar "C:\Program Files\apache-jmeter-5.5\bin\ApacheJMeter.jar" (SUCCESS) But I want to run my codes with 5.6.2 but it does not open.And finally here are my environment variables and I think everything is true: I have Java 8 to be able to open another app. So why cannot I open the 5.6.2 interface?

Hi @alikavlak2021,
unable to see (due to the formatting issue, I believe you answered using your email client) the result of your 'where java', have you tried to remove Java 8 to have a newer one (you mentioned you are using JDK 17, though unsure which one is selected in your case)

Hi,
-
Here are the commands you requested from me and their results:
-
Also when I try with 'java -jar "C:\Program Files* apache-jmeter-5.6.2\bin\ApacheJMeter.jar" (FAILED)*
-
But when I try with 'java -jar "C:\Program Files* apache-jmeter-5.5\bin\ApacheJMeter.jar" *(SUCCESS)
But I want to run my codes with 5.6.2 but it does not open.
And finally here are my environment variables and I think everything is true:
I have Java 8 to be able to open another app.
So why cannot I open the 5.6.2 interface?
Best regards.

Hi @alikavlak2021,
thanks for the additional information. I installed a JRE with same version (as the one having precedence on your system is Java 8 131), but cannot replicate the issue you mentioned. In my case did work with all Java version I used (Java v8, Java v11 and Java v19). I know (in my case) the path pointing to the Oracle\Java\javapath* gives me always an issue, and will advise you to get rid of them and to have in your PATH only the JDK-17 bin path to ensure the javapath does not interfer (it is used to auto select a version when multiple Java is found)
Best regards, Emmanuel POITIER
Hi, My path shows only JDK 17 but again I cannot open with double-click.Thank you so much for information.I think I should look for any other solution.
