In order to get my .pom file to Run As > Maven Install, I had to uninstall version 7 of Java and install Version 8 JDK and point Eclipse to Java > Installed JREs > Execution Environment > JavaSE-1.8 > Check jdk1.8.0_71.

Now that I've done that though, when I go to run start.camunda.bat, it immediately tells me that "The JRE_HOME environment verable is not defined correctly. This environment variable is needed to run this program."

I'm trying to understand what I now need to modify, and where I need to go to do it to get it back up and running.

I've attempted to include the path to my JRE installation in the setenv.bat file as well with no luck.

Hi,

Tomcat needs either the environment variable JAVA_HOME or JRE_HOME set to startup. How to set these variables depends on your system. If your use
windows you have to set it in the system properties. On linux you can just do "export JAVA_HOME=...". See for example [1] or google for how to set it
on your OS.

Cheers,
Sebastian

Hi Sebastian,

I've gone in and set both the JAVA_HOME and JRE_HOME environment variables. Still getting the same error. I've installed a clean version of Camunda, same error. Going to try to reinstall Java 7, as this began after uninstalling it, and see what happens.
