ENGLISH / Re: Ancestris won't start - Doesn't see Java

« on: January 25, 2023, 16:27:11 »

Thanks for your help. It turned out that I was missing a JDK. I added that and it still did not work. Finally, I figured out that I had chosen Java 19 JDK which Ancestris does not support. So I added Java 17 JDK. Still did not work. Finally figured out I had to remove JDK 19 so Ancestris could see 17. That did the trick!

I know there were other ways to get Ancestris to default to JDK 17, but since I did not need JDK 19 anyway, I just removed it.

Now to start learning Ancestris!

ENGLISH / Ancestris won't start - Doesn't see Java

« on: January 24, 2023, 04:17:40 »

I installed Ancestris on my mac, but I get this error when trying to run it:

Ancestris launch alert !

JAVA is missing or not found. Ancestris requires JAVA.

Please install JAVA version 8, 11 or 17. Feel free to follow the Ancestris instructions in the online documentation https://docs.ancestris.org.

I checked, and I am running Java 8

Any ideas?
