Trouble starting jExifToolGUI #207
Comments
You took the latest version. The releases page mentions clearly for the windows builds:
The version 1.9.0 dropped support for java version 8. It is too old and cumbersome and not supported anymore for many years. Please update your java version to 11 or higher. |
Mea culpa. Occasional user here, mystified by Java versioning. Thought by updating to latest JRE from control panel would install latest version. It's all working MUCH better in Java 17.0.1 :-) Thank you. |
https://www.java.com/en/download/manual.jsp The latest build of Java 8 came out a little over two months ago. There are no later downloads. Where to download the 11th version? |
It is mentioned on the release page: https://adoptopenjdk.net/releases.html But if you search on "java jdk 11", you find multiple sites |
java jdk 11 can be installed on the system at the same time as Java version 8 update 321? |
Regardless of which package I try to start, the app splash screen flashes by and oft-reported "JNI error" comes up, suggesting my Java version is not up-to-date enough. I'm not sure where the problem is, as I 'think' I am using the latest JRE. The cmd prompt provides the most information:
My PATH variable:
Path=E:\Tools\msys64\usr\bin;C:\Program Files\Java\jre1.8.0_311\bin\;C:\Program Files (x86)\Common Files\Oracle\Java\javapath;C:\WINDOWS\system32;C:\WINDOWS;C:\WINDOWS\System32\Wbem;C:\WINDOWS\System32\WindowsPowerShell\v1.0\;C:\Program Files\Hugin\bin;C:\Program Files (x86)\topcat;C:\Program Files (x86)\Plantronics\Spokes3G\;C:\WINDOWS\System32\OpenSSH\;C:\ProgramData\chocolatey\bin;C:\Users\tbransco\AppData\Local\Microsoft\WindowsApps;E:\Tools\RawTherapee_dev_5.8-3046-g5268b94cf_W64_generic_210904;E:\Tools\exiftool;C:\Program Files\Hugin\bin;
My JAVAPATH variable (first suspect):
C:\Program Files\Java\jre1.8.0_311\bin\
Any and all insights appreciated!
Thanks,
