Summary: Fatal Error: Unable to find package java.lang in classpath or bootclasspath Key: NETBEANS-5746 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/NETBEANS-5746 Project: NetBeans Issue Type: Bug Affects Versions: 12.3, 12.4 Environment: Mageia cauldron (9) using the openjdk version noted above. Reporter: Frank Griffin Attachments: messages.log, messages.log.1 Yes, I know that this problem has been reported countless times over the years, but none of the perceived causes are the case in this report. This is a fresh 12.4 install, carrying over project descriptions from older versions. The install finds the default Mageia JDK 11 install point of /usr/lib/jvm/java-11, and NetBeans/netbeans/etc/netbeans.conf reflects this. However, the actual value Mageia gives $JAVA_HOME is /etc/alternatives/java_sdk, and if you go to Tools -> Java Platforms /etc/alternatives/java_sdk is what is shown for Java Platform Folder. However, this is a symlink: (/etc/alternatives) lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 61 Feb 17 16:09 java_sdk -> /usr/lib/jvm/java-11-openjdk-11.0.10.0.1-0.0.ea.2.mga8.x86_64/ as is /usr/lib/jvm/java-11, which ends up in the same place: (/usr/lib/jvm) lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 29 Feb 17 16:09 java-11 -> /etc/alternatives/java_sdk_11/ (/etc/alternatives) lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 61 Feb 17 16:09 java_sdk_11 -> /usr/lib/jvm/java-11-openjdk-11.0.10.0.1-0.0.ea.2.mga8.x86_64/ Here's the interesting part. If I leave netbeans.conf as is, I get the error in the bug title. If I change netbeans.conf to /etc/alternatives/java_sdk, then everything works. I'll attach ~/.netbeans/var/log/messages.log for both cases. messages.log is the working case, and messages.log.1 is the failing case. -- This message was sent by Atlassian Jira (v8.3.4#803005) --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: commits-unsubscr...@netbeans.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: commits-h...@netbeans.apache.org For further information about the NetBeans mailing lists, visit: https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/NETBEANS/Mailing+lists
