---------------------------------------
Summary: VM not found when using Oracle Java 9
Key: DAEMON-380
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/DAEMON-380
Project: Commons Daemon
Issue Type: Bug
Components: Jsvc
Affects Versions: 1.1.0
Environment: Ubuntu 16.04.3 LTS
Oracle Java 9.0.1
Java(TM) SE Runtime Environment (build 9.0.1+11)
Java HotSpot(TM) 64-Bit Server VM (build 9.0.1+11, mixed mode)
(installed via PPA, as described here:
**http://www.webupd8.org/2015/02/install-oracle-java-9-in-ubuntu-linux.html)
Reporter: Sebastian Schmid
Oracle Java 9 seems to use another folder layout than for example OpenJDK 9,
which results in JSVC not being able to find libjvm.so.
I've installed Java 9 via PPA and found that the libjvm.so is located at
/lib/server/libjvm.so in the $JAVA_HOME dir, but JSVC does not look for the
shared object at this location.
Instead, JSVC tries to access /jre/lib/amd64/server/libjvm.so and
/lib/amd64/server/libjvm.so and then fails saying "Cannot find any VM in Java
Home".
As a workaround I created a symlink in amd64 dir, but probably the path used by
Oracle Java 9 should be specified in location.c file, too?
