Unable to find bundled Java version on Flutter

Question

I have Android Studio version 3.0. When I use the command flutter doctor it shows me the following:

Unable to find bundled Java version

My current Java version is (build 1.8.0_131-b11) on Windows 10.

I don't have any older versions of Android Studio on my computer.

This GitHub-issue response solved it for me: https://github.com/flutter/flutter/issues/118502#issuecomment-1383215722 — Lucas Aschenbach, Feb 17 '23 at 20:18

For Mac Users:

Set the JAVA_HOME path by following this article and then apply the following commands:

For the JetBrains Runtime "Android Studio Electric Eel"

cd /Applications/Android\ Studio.app/Contents/jbr
ln -s ../jbr jdk
ln -s "/Library/Internet Plug-Ins/JavaAppletPlugin.plugin" jdk

Then go to the Finder and search for Android Studio:

Right click -> Show Package Contents
Open the contents folder, then create new folder called jre
Copy the contents of the JetBrainsRuntime folder and paste it into the jre folder

flutter doctor -v should work now!

Other versions

cd /Applications/Android\ Studio.app/Contents/jre
ln -s ../jre jdk
ln -s "/Library/Internet Plug-Ins/JavaAppletPlugin.plugin" jdk

Then you can run flutter doctor -v

For Mac users who are using the `JetBrains Toolbox`:

Set the JAVA_HOME path following the article.

After that, change username to your macOS username and run:

cd /Users/username/Library/Application Support/JetBrains/Toolbox/apps/AndroidStudio/ch-0/203.7583922/Android Studio.app/Contents/jre
ln -s ../jre jdk
ln -s "/Library/Internet Plug-Ins/JavaAppletPlugin.plugin" jdk

flutter doctor -v

If you're still facing the issue, you can try this workaround:

cd /Applications/Android\ Studio.app/Contents
ln -s jbr jre

For those having these issues with the latest Android Studio - Electric Eel version, and other canaries and preview releases, note that the bundled jre directory in the Android Studio installation folder is now renamed to jbr

To resolve this, just create a sym link jre -> jbr and Flutter won't complain.

On Linux

cd ~/android-studio/ && ln -s jbr jre

Windows (check installation folder)

cd C:\Program Files\Android\Android Studio
mklink /D "jre" "jbr"

or

New-Item -ItemType SymbolicLink -Path .\jre -Target .\jbr

Mac OS

cd /Applications/Android\ Studio.app/Contents
ln -s jbr jre

Note that if you are running a preview release, and depending on your OS, the default installation directory might be different, e.g. on Linux it would be

~/android-studio-preview/

In either case, you can check the installation directory by running

flutter doctor -v

Also, in case if you run with permissions issues, you can try running the command with admin privileges, depending on your OS.

For example on Mac/Linux, you can just run the same command with sudo and it should work, additionally on Mac, you'll have to configure the Disk Access permissions, depends on your version, but most probably can be found under:

Settings - Privacy & Security - Full Disk Access - Terminal

On Linux if you are part of the beta / preview program of Android Studio, then the command is `cd ~/android-studio-preview/ && ln -s jbr jre`. This startled me, because I have the regular directory and your command didn't fix it. Then I realized I'm using a Preview version. You can add that. – Csaba Toth Jan 16 '23 at 21:51
When I try to do this in AS Terminal it complains: ```PS C:\Program Files\android\android studio> mklink /D "jre" "jbr" mklink : The term 'mklink' is not recognized as the name of a cmdlet, function, script file, or operable program. Check the spelling of the name, or if a path was included, verify that the path is correct and try again. At line:1 char:1 + mklink /D "jre" "jbr"``` - help! – Sam Jan 17 '23 at 21:02
@Sam try `New-Item -ItemType...`, as the `mklink` is a command in CMD. If that doesn't work maybe just run the above in Power Shell or CMD :) – eja Jan 18 '23 at 06:20
works fine, but I'd like to know more about what happens if you create link instead of common folder which Android Studio gives you from scratch, any hidden rocks? – Nikita Shadkov Jan 19 '23 at 17:50

On Windows, flutter doctor was throwing this error with latest Android Studio i.e. Electric Eel | 2022.1.1. However for me, jre folder already existed under C:\Program Files\Android\Android Studio which contained just one file \jre\bin\.marker. I renamed the existing jre folder into jre_old and afterwards created the symbolic link through below command. problem fixed ! cd C:\Program Files\Android\Android Studio mklink /D "jre" "jbr" – nirmalsingh Jan 21 '23 at 06:12
@VanditShah Another solution for those using a restricted company computer or getting "operation not permitted," install [Android Studio Dolphin](https://developer.android.com/studio/archive), the previous version of Android Studio (accept the terms at the bottom of page). During installation, it'll ask if you want to uninstall new version during installation. – mauriii Jan 24 '23 at 16:14
Windows solution worked, but my Android Studio was installed with Jetbrains Toolbox and the location was different. To see the actual Android Studio path run `flutter doctor -v` – Lukenzo Jan 26 '23 at 11:31

This helped me a lot of time. PS. for those who are getting "Access Denied" error on windows by running `mklink /D "jre" "jbr"`, just run CMD as Administrator. – Kishan Dhankecha Jan 26 '23 at 15:49
if you're on Linux and installed Android studio via the JetBrains Toolbox app, the path you're looking for will be something like `~/.local/share/JetBrains/Toolbox/apps/AndroidStudio/ch-0/221.6008.13.2211.9477386`. The last directory name could be different – Colander Jan 26 '23 at 17:30
@eja Before doing that, we should have to rename `jre` dir to another name, say, `jreOld`, otherwise, **CMD says that it cannot create symbolic link if the same (`jre`) dir is there**. then, we can run command given in answer above (for Windows)! – Rohit Bhargava Feb 03 '23 at 14:25

Try giving the terminal the required permissions and run the same with `sudo` I suppose you the needed permissions are Disk Access in `Settings - Privacy & Security - Full Disk Access - Terminal` – eja Feb 13 '23 at 08:31
This breaks Android Studio patching. Is there a way to point flutter to jbr without making changes to jre folder? – under Feb 14 '23 at 21:50
Thanks a lot. This issue bothered me for a couple of hours. Finally resolved. – Almett Feb 24 '23 at 11:34
Flutter 3.7.7 (and possibly earlier recent versions) look for the JRE under `jbr`, making workarounds like this unnecessary. Thus one solution is to upgrade to a more recent Flutter version. – holocronweaver Mar 11 '23 at 02:36

This worked for me. Thanks! One very minor clarification, on a Mac, the **Disk Access Permissions** are in the **Mac Settings**, not the **Android Studio Settings**. – YEG Mar 27 '23 at 20:47

For Windows users:

Go to C:\Program Files\Android\Android Studio, then copy the contents of jbr and paste the contents into the jre folder.

Run flutter doctor again and it will solve the problem.

When I try to install the Android Studio patch I get a fatal error saying that jre/bin/.marker file was not found. To resolve, I removed the symbolic link, created the jre/bin/.marker folders and empty file. This allows installation to complete. Then I applied the symbolic link fix again to fix flutter.

For Mac Users

Make sure you have installed java and set the java_home path, you can use homebrew for that.

If you installed Android Studio Electric Eel Follow the following step

Go to your Applications folder.
Search for Android Studio.app. (flutter doctor -v also has an Android Studio entry which will show you the app location)
Right click and select Show Package Content.
Navigate into the Content Folder that opens.
Use your terminal to cd into that folder and then enter the command below and everything should be solved

ln -s jbr jre

The command above creates a symbolic link

The symbolic link also works on Ubuntu.

@CsabaToth well I think Android Studio was built on JetBrains IntelliJ IDEA software, which uses its own version of openjdk called Jetbrains runtime(jbr). So I think in the new version of android studio, maybe they might have switched to using Jetbrains jrb. – Boanerges Jan 17 '23 at 10:16

In latest version of Flutter for Mac, you won't find jre folder under /Applications/Android Studio.app/Contents

Therefore, you can start Terminal and run following commands to fix the issue:

cd /Applications/Android Studio.app/Contents

ln -s jbr jre (creates a symbolic link (shortcut) named jre pointing to jbr)

If you're on latest version of Mac, you might see error while trying to make changes under Applications folder using Terminal, resolve it by adding sudo, like this:

sudo ln -s jbr jre (runs the above command as admin, it will ask you for Mac password)

You might still see security alert, then you must go to System Settings > Privacy & Security > App Management and Terminal as in the list of apps allowed to make changes under Applications folder.

For Android Studio Preview

I already install

Android Studio Preview
JDK via Android Studio Preview
Xcode v12 on MacOS 10.15

Here is what I faced [!] Android Studio: Unable to find bundled Java version.

Solution:

Find out JDK PATH. Check this

#check bash or zsh

$ echo $SHELL
/bin/bash

#return the path of java_home 
$ /usr/libexec/java_home

2.Add JAVA_HOME in .bash_profile for bash or .zshenv for zsh

$ nano ~/.bash_profile
export JAVA_HOME=$(/usr/libexec/java_home)
$ source ~/.bash_profile

3.Link JDK path to Android Studio Preview

$ cd /Applications/Android\ Studio\ Preview.app/Contents

# flutter doctor check if Contents/jre exist, link jbr with jre
$ ln -s jbr jre

$ cd jbr
$ ln -s ../jbr jdk
$ ln -s "/Library/Internet Plug-Ins/JavaAppletPlugin.plugin" jdk

4.[Optional] if you have Android Studio at the same time, you could follow @Nalawala Murtuza solution. It is permitted for Android Studio and Android Studio Preview at the same time during check from flutter doctor. Doesn't need to delete Android Studio Preview.

5.Use flutter doctor -v to check

Please ensure Java is in your PATH and that JAVA_HOME is defined and pointing to the JDK. I've had Windows put the JRE in the path instead of the JDK, which leads to all kinds of issues.

Please take a look at your PATH environment variable and remove everything Java related that does not point to the JDK folder.

Oracle has some documentation on how to do this here : Installing Java and setting JAVA_HOME

In my case, there were two "Android Studio" folders. One was "Android Studio" and another was "Android Studio1", the "Android Studio1" had the actual app installed and the "Android Studio" folder was empty. Deleting the empty folder and renaming the "Android Studio1" to "Android Studio" fixed the issue.

If you are using Ubuntu and used JetBrains Toolbox then just do one thing: Go to the Android Studio directory /home/shahadat/.local/share/JetBrains/Toolbox/apps/AndroidStudio/ch-0/222.4459.24.2221.9862592 address path will look like this.

if you do not know how to find out the Android studio path from the JetBrains toolbox or anything else then type flutter doctor -v and then check Android Studio Section (Version 2022.2) - The version can vary.

Then just copy the jbr directory and rename the directory/folder as jre.

Now run flutter doctor -v

This works for me.

In my case, I recently bought an M1 Macbook and then installed Android Studio with the Jetbrains Toolbox but

This folder doesn't exist

/Users/username/Library/Application Support/JetBrains/Toolbox/apps/AndroidStudio/ch-0/203.7583922/Android Studio.app/Contents/jre

So I follow what this comment say and now is working just fine https://github.com/flutter/flutter/issues/76215#issuecomment-893512809

1.- Go to Applications folder then right click on your android studio app 2.- click on Show package contents 3.- open a terminal inside jre folder then create the new jdk folder

mkdir jdk

4.- move the folder Contents into jdk

mv Contents jdk

After refreshing my terminal, flutter doctor works just fine!

This will probably break other stuff. Also, it stops working when you update Android Studio — bbjay, Dec 07 '21 at 17:15

FYI; This is on an M1 Mac.

The summary error just says:

[!] Android Studio
    ✗ Unable to find bundled Java version.

The summary also suggested flutter doctor -v to get more details. Now I see:

[!] Android Studio
    • Android Studio at /Applications/Android Studio 4.2 Preview.app/Contents
    • Flutter plugin can be installed from:
       https://plugins.jetbrains.com/plugin/9212-flutter
    • Dart plugin can be installed from:
       https://plugins.jetbrains.com/plugin/6351-dart
    ✗ Unable to find bundled Java version.
    • Try updating or re-installing Android Studio.

[✓] Android Studio (version 2021.3)
    • Android Studio at /Applications/Android Studio.app/Contents
    • Flutter plugin can be installed from:
       https://plugins.jetbrains.com/plugin/9212-flutter
    • Dart plugin can be installed from:
       https://plugins.jetbrains.com/plugin/6351-dart
    • Java version OpenJDK Runtime Environment (build 11.0.13+0-b1751.21-8125866)

I used Finder to delete Android Studio 4.2 Preview.app.
flutter doctor now happy.

HCI suggestion to flutter doctor maintainers: default to "full details" when reporting errors.

doesn't need to delete Android Studio Preview. You can check my solution — Tina Lu, Dec 15 '22 at 11:57
