Can not find Java Runtime Environment Says ArgoUML
I've just had this problem too, with a properly installed x64 JRE 8u45. Don't know if the Windows exe installer expects an x86 jvm?
Anyway, download the binary package
zip instead from http://argouml-downloads.tigris.org/argouml-0.34/ and unzip somewhere. It runs fine from there * with argouml.bat
, you just don't get a start menu entry added.
- EDIT: Your PATH must be correct to find the java.exe, easy way to check is to open a new Cmd shell (Start > Run... > cmd) and type
java -version
you should get something back from the jvm
Check if JAVA_HOME
environment variable is set (it should contain the directory your JRE is installed to).
I have the same problem on WIN7_X64.
I have installed it manually, here some steps:
- Download the argouml-0.34 zip file
- Extract the archive to install_dir Ex:
C:\Program Files (x86)\ArgoUML-0.34
(to make it visible for all users) - Create a shortcut
ArgoUML
inC:\ProgramData\Microsoft\Windows\Start Menu\Programs
with the following information:
Target: "install_dir\argouml.jar"
Ex: "C:\Program Files (x86)\ArgoUML-0.34\argouml.jar"
Start in: "install_dir"
Ex: "C:\Program Files (x86)\ArgoUML-0.34"
Change Icon...: browse to install_dir\ArgoUML.ico
Ex: C:\Program Files (x86)\ArgoUML-0.34\ArgoUML.ico
You ca use
argouml.bat
but the above steps are more than enough.
