Can not find Java Runtime Environment Says ArgoUML

Question

I have properly installed jdk in my system, I have also set the CLASSPATH properly, but when I am installing ArgoUML, it shows a Message the No JRE found, what should I do?

I installed [Windows x86 Offline](https://www.oracle.com/java/technologies/javase-jre8-downloads.html) as @Nithish said and it worked. Adding `JAVA_HOME7bin` on `PATH` wasn't necessary. — Anhera, Jun 22 '21 at 17:12

I've just had this problem too, with a properly installed x64 JRE 8u45. Don't know if the Windows exe installer expects an x86 jvm?

Anyway, download the binary package zip instead from Tigris (dead) GitHub Releases and unzip somewhere. It runs fine from there * with argouml.bat, you just don't get a start menu entry added.

EDIT: Your PATH must be correct to find the java.exe, easy way to check is to open a new Cmd shell (Start > Run... > cmd) and type java -version you should get something back from the jvm

Note : `java -version` is returning my JRE version but still not able to install AgroUML through the installer. – AxelH Feb 26 '17 at 18:06

Check if JAVA_HOME environment variable is set (it should contain the directory your JRE is installed to).

Not true. `JAVA_HOME` should point to JDK directory, not JRE. – Yar Nov 20 '16 at 06:20
jdk already contains runtime engine therefore expect ArgoUML to support JDK if installed and path set correctly. – Sunil K-Standard Chartered Nov 08 '19 at 04:41

I tested JAVA_HOME pointing to JDK and JRE still not working. – k-messaoudi Dec 31 '19 at 12:29
same tested it by setting JAVA_HOME to my JDK install folder, still not working for ArgoUML install. – JackDev Mar 27 '20 at 01:34

I have the same problem on WIN7_X64.

I have installed it manually, here some steps:

Download the argouml-0.34 zip file
Extract the archive to install_dir Ex: C:\Program Files (x86)\ArgoUML-0.34 (to make it visible for all users)
Create a shortcut ArgoUML in C:\ProgramData\Microsoft\Windows\Start Menu\Programs with the following information:

Target: "install_dir\argouml.jar" Ex: "C:\Program Files (x86)\ArgoUML-0.34\argouml.jar"

Start in: "install_dir" Ex: "C:\Program Files (x86)\ArgoUML-0.34"

Change Icon...: browse to install_dir\ArgoUML.ico Ex: C:\Program Files (x86)\ArgoUML-0.34\ArgoUML.ico

You ca use argouml.bat but the above steps are more than enough.

I installed windows x64 first but it didn't work.

Then I installed windows x86 offline and it worked. Simple!
