GitHub and alternative JREs
ub-jk opened this issue · comments
Due to various licensing changes we are looking at using the Eclipse Temurin JRE and JDK to replace the Oracle JRE and JDK. We are currently working with the 17 LTS version.
We set up a machine with both the 32-bit and 64-bit versions of the new program. When we try to run the K2 version (as an example) we receive "The application requires a Java Runtime Environment 9" error. Digging deeper into things, I looked at the Mesquite_Starter_SK.bat file which has the word java at the beginning of the line. If I double click on that .bat file, the program starts up fine. Is there something special about the .exe files that would cause them not to work while the .bat file does work?
I am hoping it is an easy answer and with Java tweaking licensing costs, having an open source version of the JRE/JDK working is going to be a huge advantage.
