I am running Windows 10. I'm using the GUI installer, glassfish-4.0-windows.exe. When I reach the screen to select the JDK, it says:
"No valid JDKs or JREs were detected on the system, and no JDK is included in this installer. You must specify a path to a custom JDK or JRE."
When I try to type the location manually as "C:\Program Files\Java\jdk-9.0.1", it says:
[]*[{0} {1}]: Invalid or incompatible Java directory. Please specify the path to a valid Java directory. Directory=C:\Program Files\Java\jdk-9.0.1"
However, at C:\Program Files\Java, I have:
jdk-9.0.1/
jre-9.0.1/
In environment variables, I have:
Variable: JAVA_HOME
Value: C:\Program Files\Java\jre-9.0.1
And "%JAVA_HOME%\bin" as the first entry for Path.
When I check on the command line, java and javac both seem okay:
C:\Windows\System32>javac -version
javac 9.0.1
C:\Windows\System32>java -version
java version "9.0.1"
Java(TM) SE Runtime Environment (build 9.0.1+11)
Java HotSpot(TM) 64-Bit Server VM (build 9.0.1+11, mixed mode)
This question suggests editing asenv.bat, but I can't do that pre-installation.
What can/should I do to make Glassfish able to recognize the JDK so I can install it?
edit: GlassFish 4 did not support Java 8 so I decided to try a later version of the program.
I switched to 4.1.1 and tried to install it over the command line.
C:\glassfish>call "%ProgramFiles%\Java\jdk-9.0.1\bin\jar.exe" xf "C:\glassfish\glassfish-4.1.1.zip"
However, when I switched into the new Glassfish4 folder and tried to run asadmin start-domain, it errored out with GlassFish requires Java SE version 6. Your JDK is version 0
Still having issues locating that JDK.
