Tizen Install on Windows 10 will not recognize JDK 9 installed

Response on Oct, 2017:

** So far Tizen studio installer can't recognize new version of Java. ** You need to install Oracle Java 8 for now.

Additional Checklist:

[✔] Tizen developers site states "Do not install OpenJDK". Make sure you are using OracleJDK instead of OpenJDK. Related links you might see:

[✔] There's a Tip&Tech document on Tizen Developers Community called 'Guide for Setting JDK'. As you are having Issues, You may check it out.

[✔] I expect you are using the Latest Tizen Studio 2.0.

Edit on March, 2019:

Tizen-Studio now supports OpenJDK 10

To use Tizen Studio install Oracle Java Development Kit (JDK) 8, JDK 9, or OpenJDK 10 .

I was stuck there for a while, too. In addition to setting JAVA_HOME to C:\Program Files\Java\jdk-12.0.1 (no bin at the end), I also added C:\Program Files\Java\jdk-12.0.1\bin to the beginning of PATH; then it worked.


I've had the same problem, therefore i installed JDK8 from oracle website and the installer works fine. (no need to reboot) If you don't need specific JDK9 stuff, go with 8 and you will be good to go. Don't forget to update JAVA_HOME and Path to point to JDK8.

I have set as user variables CLASSPATH set to C:\Program Files\Java\jre1.8.0_144\lib, JAVA_HOME set to C:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.8.0_144

As system variables i've added to the existing Path this value C:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.8.0_144\bin and JAVA_HOME the same as above (even though i'm not sure the latter one is required).

PS. I have both JDK8 and 9 installed and Windows 10 64bit. I tried installing Tizen on debian using JDK9 and i got the same error, i'm sure that using JDK8 will work (need to check installation on OSX though)

Cheers!
