[Solved] JAVA dialog creating forms
Posted: Tue Apr 13, 2021 6:16 pm
I am trying to port an Access database over to ooDatabase. Trying to re-create forms with the ooDB Form Designer I am running into dialogs telling me:
"OpenOffice requires a Java runtime environment JRE) to perform this task. Please install a JRE and restart OpenOffice."
When I checked at the command prompt it reported:
java version "1.8.0_281"
Java(TM) SE Runtime Environment (build 1.8.0_281-b09)
Java HotSpot(TM) 64-Bit Server VM (build 25.281-b09, mixed mode)
I checked Windows Explorer and found this: C:\Program Files\Java\jre1.8.0_281\bin
AND this: C:\Program Files (x86)\Common Files\Oracle\Java\javapath
So, Java, apparently, in two paths. When I checked the PATH Environment variable, it includes as the first entry: C:\Program Files (x86)\Common Files\Oracle\Java\javapath
How do I correct whatever the problem is that is preventing ooDataBase from recognizing JAVA?
