I have a new OSX machine. I just installed Android Studio 1.2 but I am greeted with a popup that no JVM is installed.

I installed Java 8 u45 from Oracles site. So that should suffice as the JVM. I want to make clear that I looked here first:

Android Studio was unable to find a valid Jvm (Related to MAC OS)

As the answer in that question says, "This is fixed in Android Studio 1.1 https://code.google.com/p/android/issues/detail?id=82378"

The popup links me to an Apple page to download Java 6. I don't want Java 6 on my machine and it is not supposed to be needed as of AS 1.1/1.2.

I installed Java 8, it just seems like Android Studio 1.2 can't find it. What to do?

  • If you are having path of JDK bin as environment variables or something (I use windows), then don't give the full path to bin. Only give the path upto JDK folder – Krupal Shah May 13 '15 at 15:54
  • Hmm... I installed Java on the computer and thought that was enough. I installed JDK 8 and that did the trick. I'm aware that I need a JDK to develop, it's just that the error message specifically said JVM, so I thought installing Java should take care of that. Oh well. – EGHDK May 13 '15 at 17:21
