Hello,

I just downloaded and installed MyEclipse 2015 CI. I set up a jdk1.8.0_31 as the default JDK. When I try to set up a server configuration for Wildfly using the installed jdk1.8.0_31, I get the message “WildFly 8.0 Runtime requires a JDK to be specified for launching” even though I’ve selected my installed JDK.

What am I doing wrong? How can I accomplish this?

Thanks,
Daniel Shapiro

Daniel,

Thank you for trying MyEclipse 2015. I could not replicate the issue at my end.

Can you please give us some more information?

1. Can you please make sure you are pointing to the jdk path and not to the jre location when configuring the JDK 1.8 in the Installed JREs section?

2. If you are still seeing issues , please send us a screenshot of the Installed JREs section (Window > Preferences > Java > Installed JREs) along with the screenshot of the WildFly server connector settings to help us get a visual. I assume you are working with MyEclipse 2015 CI 10. If no, then please share the Build Id from Help > About section.

Let us know how it works for you.

Thanks for the quick reply. Attached are screenshots of the Installed JREs dialog, the JRE Definition, and the Edit Server Runtime Environment dialog. The version of MyEclipse is:

Version: 2015 CI 10
Build id: 13.0.0-20150115

Daniel,

Thank you for the screenshots. It looks like the jdk folder you are pointing to is actually a jre folder and is named as jdk wrongly.

Please check this screenshot for the path of the JRE system libraries and compare it with the JRE system libraries location at your end (E:\dev\Java\jdk1.8.0_31\lib\).

I see no issues configuring the WildFly 8.0 with JDK 1.8 at my end.

Please recheck and let us know how it works for you.

Well fer cryin’ out loud! Yes that was the problem alright. I used the jdk installer from Oracle and installed what I thought was the JDK but, apparently, it only installed the jre. I even uninstalled and re-installed and even though the the file was named “jdk-8u31-windows-x64.exe” it was only the jre. I got another installer from CNET with the same file name, and it installed the entire JDK.

Thank you for your help! I guess I needed another pair of eyes on that one.
