Zulu docs for supported JRE flags - azul-zulu

Where can I find documentation on JAVA_OPTS / JRE flags supported by Zulu
I've looked here but cannot find anything https://docs.azul.com/zulu/zuludocs

Zulu is a build of the OpenJDK, so the flags on the command line are those for HotSpot, which is the Virtual Machine implementation.
Probably the best place to go for command-line flags is Foojay.io. For example, the JDK 8 flags are listed here:
https://foojay.io/command-line-arguments/openjdk-8/?tab=alloptions
Other versions can be found under the OpenJDK Command Line Arguments section on the main page.

Wrong JVM version for Jira

The problem appears on Linux CentOS 7 server. The service jira will start | stop but when I try to run config.sh I get an error, check-java.sh gives the same error .
The error reads like this:
No JRE_HOME or JAVA_HOME environment variable is set - attempting to just run java command
********** Wrong JVM version! You are running with .. but JIRA requires at least 1.8 to run. **********
openjdk version "1.8.0_151"
OpenJDK Runtime Environment (build 1.8.0_151-b12)
OpenJDK 64-Bit Server VM (build 25.151-b12, mixed mode)
When Running alternatives --config java I get the following:
There is 1 program that provides 'java'.
Selection Command
-----------------------------------------------
*+ 1 java-1.8.0-openjdk.x86_64 (/usr/lib/jvm/java-1.8.0-openjdk-1.8.0.151-1.b12.el7_4.x86_64/jre/bin/java)
Enter to keep the current selection[+], or type selection number:
The solutions tried were:

Tried to update Java but Package 1:java-1.8.0-openjdk-devel-1.8.0.151-1.b12.el7_4.x86_64 already installed and latest version
Nothing to do.
The answer to the problem is comes like this.
Use the path JAVA_HOME="/opt/atlassian/jira/jre/" in /etc/environment
Command source /etc/environment to update the PATH
Do your business.
If to edit 'check-java.sh' file as follows:
java_version=14
echo $java_version
if [ $java_version -ne 8 ] && [ $java_version -ne 11 ] && [ $java_version -ne 14 ]
then
Jira v.8.4.1 is available for computations for Apple macOS Mojave 10.14.6 as in the local early access experiment for Java 14-ea.
After each update event of Jira version OR update event of Java JVM version (in case of update by substituting the whole either software folder) 'check-java.sh' file is better to be updated in those cases as well (also for automation scripts).
This approach with hard coding of the JVM version value for Jira script allows to run Jira version (at least 8.4.1) via newer JVM versions in experimental mode and along with other software as well at single JVM not only limited by and supported by 1.8 or 11 JVM versions without need to install and to maintain two several JVM versions (in case of folder installations) in experimental mode, if other software can use newer JVM, so more Jira data backups are better to apply in small data scoped setting in such mode of usage.

Batch file Exception in thread "main" java.lang.UnsupportedClassVersionError: com/aionemu/c [duplicate]

I am trying to use Notepad++ as my all-in-one tool edit, run, compile, etc.
I have JRE installed, and I have setup my path variable to the .../bin directory.
When I run my "Hello world" in Notepad++, I get this message:
java.lang.UnsupportedClassVersionError: test_hello_world :
Unsupported major.minor version 51.0
at java.lang.ClassLoader.defineClass1(Native Method)
at java.lang.ClassLoader.defineClassCond(Unknown Source)
.........................................
I think the problem here is about versions; some versions of Java may be old or too new.
How do I fix it?
Should I install the JDK, and setup my path variable to the JDK instead of JRE?
What is the difference between the PATH variable in JRE or JDK?
The version number shown describes the version of the JRE the class file is compatible with.
The reported major numbers are:
Java SE 19 = 63,
Java SE 18 = 62,
Java SE 17 = 61,
Java SE 16 = 60,
Java SE 15 = 59,
Java SE 14 = 58,
Java SE 13 = 57,
Java SE 12 = 56,
Java SE 11 = 55,
Java SE 10 = 54,
Java SE 9 = 53,
Java SE 8 = 52,
Java SE 7 = 51,
Java SE 6.0 = 50,
Java SE 5.0 = 49,
JDK 1.4 = 48,
JDK 1.3 = 47,
JDK 1.2 = 46,
JDK 1.1 = 45
(Source: Wikipedia)
To fix the actual problem you should try to either run the Java code with a newer version of Java JRE or specify the target parameter to the Java compiler to instruct the compiler to create code compatible with earlier Java versions.
For example, in order to generate class files compatible with Java 1.4, use the following command line:
javac -target 1.4 HelloWorld.java
With newer versions of the Java compiler you are likely to get a warning about the bootstrap class path not being set. More information about this error is available in a blog post New javac warning for setting an older source without bootclasspath.
java.lang.UnsupportedClassVersionError happens because of a higher JDK during compile time and lower JDK during runtime.
In Eclipse, I just went to menu command Window -> Preferences -> Java -> Compiler and then set "Compiler compliance level" to 1.6.
Don't worry, I got it solved.
It is actually simple - you need to install BOTH JRE / JDK with the same version.
JRE 6 -> JDK 6
JRE 7 -> JDK 7
And so on.
This error means you're trying to load a Java "class" file that was compiled with a newer version of Java than you have installed.
For example, your .class file could have been compiled for JDK 7, and you're trying to run it with JDK 6.
So the solution is to either:
Upgrade your Java runtime or
Recompile the class if you have the source, using your local Java compiler (if you have one).
javac FileName.java
For developers, this can happen if another developer checks in a .class file, and they've got a newer version of java than you have!
You are trying to run your program with a Java version that does not support the version in which the code was compiled. So basically you must have compiled your code with a higher version and trying to run it using a lower version.
As you are getting
Unsupported major.minor version 51.0
and version 51.0 corresponds to J2SE 7 you have most probably compiled your code in Java 7 and trying to run it using a lower version. Check what java -version displays. It should be the Java 7 version. If not make appropriate changes in the PATH/JAVA_HOME. Or you can compile with the same version you are trying to run the code. If the configurations are confusing you can always give absolute path /home/user/jdk1.7.0_11/bin/javac and /home/user/jdk1.7.0_11/bin/java.
I had a similar situation on Mac, and the following process worked for me:
In the terminal, type
vi ~/.profile
Then add this line in the file, and save
export JAVA_HOME=/Library/Java/JavaVirtualMachines/jdk<version>.jdk/Contents/Home
where version is the one on your computer, such as 1.7.0_25.
Exit the editor, then type the following command make it become effective
source ~/.profile
Then type java -version to check the result
java -version
What is .profile file?
.profile file is a hidden file. It is an optional file which tells the system which commands to run when the user whose profile file it is logs in. For example, if my username is bruno and there is a .profile file in /Users/bruno/, all of its contents will be executed during the log-in procedure.

In Eclipse's menu Window -> Preferences -> Java -> Compiler check also "Configure Project Specific Settings".
If you stil have the error with same Java version: try to delete build folder of your project manually. Then restart Eclipse.
You can have some JAR library compiled in Java 7, and you have only Java 6 as Java Runtime. It could happen with some new libraries.
The most common issue is misconfiguration of your JAVA_HOME variable which should point to the right Java Development Kit library, if you've multiple installed.
To find where SDK Java folder is located, run the following commands:
jrunscript -e 'java.lang.System.out.println(java.lang.System.getProperty("java.home"));'
Debian/Ubuntu
To check which java (openjdk) you've installed, check via:
dpkg -l "openjdk*" | grep ^i
or:
update-java-alternatives -l
To change it, use:
update-alternatives --config java
Prefix with sudo if required.
to select the alternative java version.
Or check which are available for install:
apt-cache search ^openjdk
Prefix with sudo if required.
Then you can install, for example:
apt-get install openjdk-7-jre
Prefix with sudo if required.
Fedora, Oracle Linux, Red Hat
Install/upgrade appropriate package via:
yum install java-1.7.0-openjdk java-1.7.0-openjdk-devel
The java-1.7.0-openjdk package contains just the Java Runtime Environment. If you want to develop Java programs then install the java-1.7.0-openjdk-devel package.
BSD
There is an OpenJDK 7 package in the FreeBSD Ports collection called openjdk7 which probably needs to be reconfigured.
See: OpenJDK wiki page.
Windows
Just install appropriate Java SE Development Kit library from the Oracle site or install
Jenkins
If you're experiencing this issue with Jenkins, see:
JENKINS-30561 - Unable to launch agent using SSH
However selecting the right version of Java (newer) with update-alternatives should work.
I got the same problem with a project written in 1.7 and tried to execute in 1.6.
My solution in Eclipse:
Right click on your Project Properties -> Java Build Path -> Libraries
Select your JRE System Library and click Edit on the right, and choose the target JRE.
Now go to Java Compiler on the left, and change the Compiler compliance level to your target.
That worked for me.
I have faced the same problem when I was working with an Ant script to build my application.
I use Eclipse for my application development, and I changed the compiler version in build properties of the project. But that didn't work for me. Then I found out that I can provide the compiler version in the Ant script.
I modified the Ant script at the section where it compile Java files.
<target name="build-java" depends="prepare-build">
<echo message="Compiling java files"/>
<javac ....
target="1.5"...
</javac>
</target>
This worked for me to resolve the unsupported major minor issue.
When I installed JDK 1.7, the problem got solved.
Based on this...
J2SE 8 = 52
J2SE 7 = 51
J2SE 6.0 = 50
J2SE 5.0 = 49
JDK 1.4 = 48
JDK 1.3 = 47
JDK 1.2 = 46
JDK 1.1 = 45
In Eclipse, right click on project in package explorer:
Build Path -> Configure Build Path
Under:
Java Build Path -> Libraries -> Add Library -> JRE System Library -> Installed JREs -> Search.
Add the required JRE by selecting the library in the list available after the search is complete.
As answered elsewhere by several people, the Java program is being run on an older version of Java than the one it was compiled it for. It needs to be "crosscompiled" for backward compatibility. To put it another way, there is a mismatch between source and target Java versions.
Changing options in Eclipse menus don't answer the original poster, who said he/she is not using Eclipse. On OpenJDK javac version 1.7, you can crosscompile for 1.6 if you use parameters -source and -target, plus provide the rt.jar -file of the target version (that is, the older one) at compile time. If you actually install the 1.6 JRE, you can point to its installation (for example, /usr/lib/jvm/java-6-openjdk-i386/jre/lib/rt.jar on Ubuntu, /usr/jdk/jdk1.6.0_60/jre/lib/rt.jar on SunOS apparently. Sorry, I don't know where it is on a Windows system). Like so:
javac -source 1.6 -target 1.6 -bootclasspath /usr/lib/jvm/java-6-openjdk-i386/jre/lib/rt.jar HelloWorld.java
It looks like you can just download rt.jar from the Internet, and point to it. This is not too elegant though:
javac -source 1.6 -target 1.6 -bootclasspath ./rt.jar HelloWorld.java
If you use Maven, set your Java compile level. Open a command line and write java -version for your compile level:
If you use IntelliJ IDEA, select project → File → Settings → Build Execution Deployment → Compiler → Java Compiler. Then change byte code as 1.7 like this image:
If you're facing this issue while using Maven, you can compile your code using the plug-in Maven Compiler.
<build>
<plugins>
<plugin>
<groupId>org.apache.maven.plugins</groupId>
<artifactId>maven-compiler-plugin</artifactId>
<version>3.1</version>
<configuration>
<source>1.6</source>
<target>1.6</target>
</configuration>
</plugin>
.....
UPDATE: set source and target to 1.8, if you are using JDK 8.
I had the same error message when running Ant from Eclipse, but the other solutions mentioned here didn't solve my problem. The funny thing was that running Ant from the Windows command line was running fine, so it had to be a configuration issue within Eclipse.
It turned out that under Eclipse you can specify the environment that Ant should be running with and this was set as a JRE instead of a JDK.
Go to: Run -> External Tools -> External Tools Configurations ...
Select the Ant build.xml for your project (if you have multiple projects)
Activate the Tab 'JRE'
Here was selected 'Separate JRE: jre6'. When I changed this to a JDK from the 1.6 or 1.7 series, the error was gone.
You have used a higher version of the JDK to compile and trying to run from a lower version of JDK/JRE.
To check this, see the version information:
javac -version
java -version
They will be different and javac will have a higher version number.
To get around this, run using java from the JDK version or if you have a newer JRE/JDK that will work as well.
which javac will tell you the location, for example, /usr/bin/javac. Just run directly using /usr/bin/java <program>.
OR you can set the environment variable as a permanent solution.
How do I fix it?
This error means that the JRE that is being used to execute your class code does not recognise the version of Java used. Usually because the version of Java that generated your class file (i.e. compiled it) is newer.
To fix it, you can either
a) Compile your Java sources with the same, or older, version of the Java compiler as will be used to run it. i.e. install the appropriate JDK.
b) Compile your Java sources with the newer version of the Java compiler but in compatibility mode. i.e. use the -target parameter.
c) Run your compiled classes in a JRE that is the same, or newer, version as the JDK used to compile the classes.
You can check the versions you are currently using with
javac -version for the compiler, and java -version for the runtime.
Should I install the JDK, and setup my PATH variable to the JDK
instead of JRE?
For compilation, certainly, install and configure the specific JDK that you want.
For runtime, you can use the one that comes with the JDK or a standalone JRE, but regardless, make sure that you have installed the right versions and that you have configured your PATH such that there are no surprises.
What is the difference between the PATH variable in JRE or JDK?
The PATH environment variable tells the command shell where to look for the command you type. When you type java, the command shell interpreter will look through all the locations specified in the PATH variable, from left to right, to find the appropriate java runtime executable to run. If you have multiple versions of Java installed - i.e. you have the java executable in multiple locations specified in the PATH variable, then the first one encountered when going from left to right will be the one that is executed.
The compiler command is javac and only comes with the JDK. The runtime command is java and comes with the JDK and is in the JRE.
It is likely that you have one version (51.0 = Java 7) of javac installed, and you also have the same version of java installed, but that another previous version of java is appearing earlier in the PATH and so is being invoked instead of the one you expect.
Had this problem when I reverted to Java 6 and tried to run classes previously compiled with Java 7. What worked for me was Preferences > java > compiler --> set compliance level to 1.6 and crucially "configure project settings"..
Today, this error message appeared in our Tomcat 7 on Ubuntu 12.04.2 LTS (Precise Pangolin):
/var/log/tomcat7/localhost.2014-04-08.log:
Apr 8, 2014 9:00:55 AM org.apache.catalina.core.StandardContext filterStart
SEVERE: Exception starting filter struts2
java.lang.UnsupportedClassVersionError: controller/ReqAccept : Unsupported major.minor version 51.0 (unable to load class controller.ReqAccept)
The Struts application is compiled with Java 7.
It turned out, someone uses "service tomcat [stop/start]" to restart Tomcat 7,
$ ps -ef | grep java
tomcat7 31783 1 32 20:13 ? 00:00:03 /usr/lib/jvm/default-java/bin/java...
$ /usr/lib/jvm/default-java/bin/java -version
java version "1.6.0_27"
Which causes the "Unsupported major.minor version 51.0" error.
When we used "/etc/init.d/tomcat7 [stop/start]" to restart Tomcat 7, the problem was solved.
$ ps -ef | grep java
tomcat7 31886 1 80 20:24 ? 00:00:10 /usr/local/java/jdk1.7.0_15/bin/java
$ /usr/local/java/jdk1.7.0_15/bin/java -version
java version "1.7.0_15"
I solved it. I ran:
JAVA_HOME=/usr/lib/jvm/java-7-openjdk-i386
The error is misleading, Unsupported major.minor version 51.0. This gives the impression that version 51 (Java 7) is not supported. And we should use Java 6.
The error should have been:
The current Java version, 50, is unsupported. Use Java version 7 (51:0 and greater) instead.`
Your Java file is compiled with a different version (higher compiler version) than the version (lower runtime version) you are trying to run it with.
It is basic understanding that classes compiled with lower versions are expected to run in the later higher versions. But the opposite (compiled with higher compiler version and trying to run it with lower runtime version) is quite not possible sometimes.
Hence you are shown this error, when trying to execute your program. Unsupported major.minor version x.x
Q: I have created an application in Java 7, but when my users try to
run it they get an Unsupported major.minor version 51.0 error. What
does this mean and what can I do about it?
A: If you compile an application using javac in Java 7, the resulting classfiles will have the 51.0 version number. Versions of
Java prior to 7 do not recognize this number, so your users will have
to upgrade to Java 7 prior to running your application. If you are not
using any Java 7 APIs you can try to compile your application using
javac -target 1.6 to create a 1.6-compatible classfile. If your
application is deployed using webstart you can specify the minimum
version required. For more information, see the docs on Java Web Start
and JNLP here. This issue will go away once we trigger autoupdate to
Java 7 for end-users currently having Java 6 on their desktops. The
timeline for this is not yet determined, we want to give developers
time to work out any issues between their code and JDK 7 first.

Oh Mac OS X I was able to solve this problem by setting the JAVA_HOME variable:
export JAVA_HOME=/Library/Java/JavaVirtualMachines/jdk1.7.0_75.jdk/Contents/Home
First let's get some basics right...
JRE is a component in NetBeans/Eclipse/standalone that is going to provide you with libraries, JVM, Java plugins & Java web start. Note that it does not provide compliers or debuggers.
JDK is the superset of JRE along with compliers and debuggers.
So when you have your default library as a JRE instead of JDK, you are going to have a nice time importing stuff, but it won't compile.
Instead, set your path to JDK (I use NetBeans, and I set them using netbeans.conf in netbeans/etc/netbeans.conf and change the path).
In my case the problem was in the server runtime configuration:
Check the JRE is the version you need:
The project was in version 1.7 and the server JRE was set as 1.6, after changing to the proper java version it's launched fine.
I had the problem whereby I was having to run a Maven compilation on my project from the command line in order to run my unit tests; if I made a change to the test class and let Eclipse automatically recompile it, then I got the "Unsupported major.minor version 51.0" error.
I do have both JDK6 and JDK7 installed, but all my JRE settings were pointing at 1.6, both in the pom and from the project properties page in Eclipse. No amount of Maven Update Project and/or refreshing solved this.
Finally I tried closing the project and re-opening it, and this seemed to fix it! HTH
You have compiled your Java class with JDK 7 and you are trying to run same class on JDK 6 .
Install JDK 7.0.55 and set the Java for Eclipse for JDK 7.0.55.
Build the project with JDK 7.0.55 by configuring on build path JDK 7.0.55.
Set the compiler in Eclipse for JDK 7.0.55 by menu Windows -> Preferences -> Java -> Compiler - choose 1.7.

Linux, How to integrate icc with eclipse and set icc from evrywhere

I'm using ubuntu 14.04.
I just downloaded and installed Intel parallel studio 2016.
If I'm typing icc not from the icc folder, I'm getting error command not found. Is there a way to set icc like gcc (type the icc command from every place I'm running ?)
How can I integrate icc and eclipse ?
I found the following link:

But t doest help me (it using icc13 and I cant understand from where I can find the site)
Pls help
Thanks
1)In the directory where you installed the compiler (by default that is /opt/intel), you will find a directory composerxe/bin/ . In that directory are scripts compilervars.csh and compilervars.sh. Choose the script that matches your shell and executed that with either the ia32 or the intel64 as an argument - you probably want intel64. This will set up all your environment variables.
2) The files for eclipse support will be in the same place you installed the compilers. So if you installed the compilers in the default location, /opt/intel, then you can use /opt/intel/composerxe (or /opt/intel/composer_xe_) instead of .../composer_xe_2013.0.079.

64bit version of Octave on Windows

Does anybody know how to build Octave for x64 Windows? The 2GB data limitation for x32 is too limiting for many problems that require analysis on large data sets.
http://wiki.octave.org/Octave_for_Microsoft_Windows has information on installing Octave on Windows and links to building it from source using different methods.
GNU Octave is primarily developed on GNU/Linux and other POSIX conformal systems. The ports of GNU Octave to Windows use different approaches to get most of the original Octave and adapt it to Microsoft Windows idiosyncrasies...
Windows support is experimental.
According to http://www.gnu.org/software/octave/doc/interpreter/Compiling-Octave-with-64_002dbit-Indexing.html
To use arrays larger than 2 GB, Octave has to be configured with the option --enable-64. This option is experimental...
Compiling Octave for 64 bit is experimental on Linux. It might cause a lot of headache to try an experimental feature in a port of the software. It would be better to use a true Linux installation for now. If you feel adventurous, try compiling it in http://www.cygwin.com/
I have installed Octave-4.0.0 into windows 7,8 and 10 in x64 platforms. All works perfectly well.
Just follow these steps
Download Octave-4.0.0_0-installer.exe from https://ftp.gnu.org/gnu/octave/windows/
Install the same - just follow the steps in the installer.
Find the build_packages.m file in C:\Octave\Octave 4.0.0\src
Open it in Octave and find
try install general-1.3.4.tar.gz, and try install signal-1.3.1.tar.gz, the versions are wrong.
Replace with 2.0.0 and 1.3.2 respectively.
In the build_packages.m file find
pkg ('install', pkgname, '-noauto').
Change it to
pkg ('install', pkgname).
Skip this and you will have to load the packages you require every time you use Octave. Lesser load for octave though. Sometimes it may take a while for the packages to get installed, kindly wait.
Run build_packages.m
load the packages
e.g. to load the general package - pkg load general
Note that the signal package is dependent on the control package.
I found that the plot function got octave stuck. The answer for the same is to type in at the command window
pkg rebuild -noauto oct2mat
Found this solution in Plot window not responding
Hope this works for u too. :)
I found Sreepad's ans is CORRECT. I use octave on win 10 64-bit OS.
octave 4.0.0 is ok as Sreepad said, But Octave 4.2.1 is not OK on Win 10 64-bit OS.

Sun JDK /Open JDK on Cygwin

Is any version of Sun JDK or Open JDK available to be installed on cygwin.
Reason I am looking for this option is: There are many tools (e.g. jStack, jMap) which are available in unix versions of JDK but not for windows version. I need to exploit the same on my windows machine using Cygwin if possible.
The Windows version should work alright, and is now available pre-built
https://github.com/alexkasko/openjdk-unofficial-builds/downloads
The OpenJDK site has build / compile instructions for a Cygwin environment:
I have however not encountered pre-built binaries that are intended to run on CygWin - yet.
