Error INSTALL4J_JAVA_HOME when running slamdata_unix_4_0_10.sh

[mariel...@gmail.com]

I'm definitely missing something even though I've exported the INSTALL4J_JAVA_HOME using oracle-java9 package from an ubuntu repo.

Anyone else has another idea? I'm running Ubuntu 14.04 LTS

export INSTALL4J_JAVA_HOME=/usr/lib/jvm/java-9-oracle/bin/java

root@ubuntu-i386:/home/ubuntu/dist# ./slamdata_unix_4_0_10.sh

No suitable Java Virtual Machine could be found on your system.

The version of the JVM must be at least 1.8.

Please define INSTALL4J_JAVA_HOME to point to a suitable JVM.

thoughts?

Hi Mariel,

I think you'll need to use Java 8 exclusively for this.  See here:  https://www.liquidweb.com/kb/how-to-install-oracle-java-8-on-ubuntu-14-04-lts/

One you've removed Java 9 and installed Java 8, let us know if you still see this problem and we'll dig further.

Ah yes that definitely worked. 

Thanks
