unsupported Java version: 11

[shah-sid]

Jenkins version - 2.164.2 Gitlab-Hook Plugin version - 1.4.2 Ruby-Runtime version 0.13

Trying to install gitlab-hook plugin in jenkins, while installing ruby-runtime it throws error

java.lang.RuntimeException: unsupported Java version: 11 at org.jruby.RubyInstanceConfig.initGlobalJavaVersion(RubyInstanceConfig.java:1674) at org.jruby.RubyInstanceConfig.<clinit>(RubyInstanceConfig.java:1387) Caused: java.lang.ExceptionInInitializerError at org.jruby.embed.internal.AbstractLocalContextProvider.<init>(AbstractLocalContextProvider.java:42)

Tried installing Ruby-runtime plugin too but same error. Please look into it.

Thanks

Hi, I solved it by changing java version to 8th. Maybe there is a problem with java 11 compatibility issues. https://www.jenkins.io/doc/administration/requirements/jenkins-on-java-11/

Hello everyone! I still have the same issue with java 11. The compatibility issue still persists on my side I am using Ubuntu 20.04. Any fix available? PS: It's mandatory for my project that I work with java 11.

How can switch the JVM version to Java 8. I'm using MAC OS Big SUR. Running Jenkins without Docker and just starting with these tools. Please help. @yuanzhiying @zhumabek

This is the manual solution I think I found. (may not, but this is works to me)

Jenkins version - 2.277.1 OS - Mac os : catalina

First, enter this into the terminal

vi /usr/local/Cellar/jenkins/2.x.x/homebrew.mxcl.jenkins.plist

(2.x.x is 2.277.1 for me.)

Then you will see this.

   <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
   <!DOCTYPE plist PUBLIC "-//Apple//DTD PLIST 1.0//EN" "http://www.apple.com/DTDs/PropertyList-1.0.dtd">
   <plist version="1.0">
     <dict>
       <key>Label</key>
       <string>homebrew.mxcl.jenkins-lts</string>
       <key>ProgramArguments</key>
       <array>
         **<string>/usr/local/opt/openjdk@11/bin/java</string>**
         <string>-Dmail.smtp.starttls.enable=true</string>
         <string>-jar</string>
         <string>/usr/local/opt/jenkins-lts/libexec/jenkins.war</string>
         <string>--httpListenAddress=0.0.0.0</string>
         <string>--httpPort=8080</string>
       </array>
       <key>RunAtLoad</key>
       <true/>
     </dict>
   </plist>

     **<string>/usr/local/opt/openjdk@11/bin/java</string>**

change here like this

   <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
   <!DOCTYPE plist PUBLIC "-//Apple//DTD PLIST 1.0//EN" "http://www.apple.com/DTDs/PropertyList-1.0.dtd">

       <key>Label</key>
       <string>homebrew.mxcl.jenkins-lts</string>
       <key>ProgramArguments</key>
       <array>
         **<string>/Library/Java/JavaVirtualMachines/adoptopenjdk-8.jdk/Contents/Home/bin/java</string>**
         <string>-Dmail.smtp.starttls.enable=true</string>
         <string>-jar</string>
         <string>/usr/local/opt/jenkins-lts/libexec/jenkins.war</string>
         <string>--httpListenAddress=0.0.0.0</string>
         <string>--httpPort=8080</string>
       </array>
       <key>RunAtLoad</key>
       <true/>
     </dict>
   </plist>

Then restart brew services Now ruby-runtime should work normally, I write it down hoping it will help someone.

I have solved this problem refer to @JunGeunHong1129 Pay attention to two points：

1. none **
2. Use shortcut keys（command+Option+C） to obtain the path
