Hello when I double click on the .jar file I get the error:

Error: A JNI error has occurred, please check your installation and try again

This is on a windows 10 machine, can someone please help me?

Thanks

What version of the Artemis software do you have installed?
If it's the latest (18.0.2) then you will need Java version 9 or above (ideally version 11.0.2) installed. Java can be downloaded from here: http://jdk.java.net/archive/

If you bring up a DOS window and type:

java -version

what version does it show?

You could also try right-clicking on the artemis jar and selecting Open with... Java.

I too am experiencing the same problem. When i type java -version into cmd it returns:

java version "1.8.0_301" Java(TM) SE Runtime Environment (build 1.8.0_301-b09) Java HotSpot(TM) Client VM (build 25.301-b09, mixed mode)

When i try and open the Artemis.jar file howveer i am still getting theses two errors:

Error: A JNI error has occured, please check your installation and try again
A Java Exception has occurred

@mattbird567 - Later versions of Artemis do not work with Java 1.8 (your installed version). You will need to upgrade your Java version, e.g. Java 11 - see the download GitHub page for details.
