#DO I NEED JAVA 8 UPDATE 91 INSTALL#
When a new update comes along for the major release, it will install itself into the existing folder and overwrite the old version. The SDK is "exempt" from automatic updates, so we need to push updates. I generally install Java to C:\Java\jdk8 or C:\Java\jdk7 (I use only the SDK). If you have a value for JAVA_HOME, then CLASSPATH=%JAVA_HOME%\lib\somefile.jar. When applications require a value for JAVA_HOME it is because they are generally looking to find a specific library or jar file for use in the CLASSPATH variable. Java itself does not need it because the file path to the executable is used to determine which folder is the "root" install of any particular version. The environment variable JAVA_HOME is not set up by Java. Is this Ninite, or the Java installer?Īll I need now is a group policy or login script that takes the whatever the JavaHome key is in the registry and creates a JAVA_HOME system variable. But it didn't create a system variable JAVA_HOME. so that part appears to be working right.
and saw "JavaHome" key in "HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Wow6432Node\JavaSoft\Java Runtime Environment" change to "C:\Program Files\Java\jre1.8.0_91".
To 8.0.910.14 and watched the system registry. Does Ninite not install Java "properly", maybe? I updated from WHY is there no JAVA_HOME system variable? If Crystal Reports depends on it, it seems like somebody somewhere expects it to be there. I'd have to update the system variable on all computers every time I update Java. but when I implemented the suggested fix (putting '\bin' after $\bin" and printing works. This handy dandy article here said it's a problem with the path to the Java executable. . I finally got around to troubleshooting why this broke, and I've figured it out. This broke printing in Syspro, which uses Cyrstal Reports, which uses Java. Even for compiling java programs, you need to open a new command window after setting PATH.I use Ninite to update software, and a year or so ago I updated Java from version 7 to version 8 on everyone's computer. Note that if you run the command from a window which was opened before you modified the PATH variable, it would not print updated path. Now open new command prompt and run ‘set path’, you can see that JDK path is added.

For command line steps, please see – Set path from windows command prompt
So adding c:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.7.0_17 is not correct.

JRE only helps to run already built applications, JDK(which Javac is bundled into) is also needed if you are developing software in java.
Note that having JRE is not enough to develop java applications. If you are not sure whether your computer has it installed or not, you can verify from appwiz.cpl.(More details here – How do I check if Java is installed on my system)
