JAVA_HOME is installed in an invalid directory:

Question

I installed JAVA_HOME on my system C:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.8.0_ 131\bin; and I try to run the cordova command (cordova assembly) on the command line, but I get the error message below. I tried all the methods, but could not solve this problem:

ERROR: Invalid directory for JAVA_HOME: C: \ Program Files \ Java \ jdk1.8.0_ 131 \ bin;

Please set the JAVA_HOME variable in your environment according to the location of your Java installation.

Answer 1

You must install it using C:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.8.0_12 .

\bin not required.

Answer 2

JAVA_HOME should point to the jdk home directory, not jdk/bin .

You need to set JAVA_HOME like this:

 JAVA_HOME="C:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.8.0_131" 

Answer 3

Remove \bin and also delete ; in the end. After restart cmd and run.

Answer 4

Try the following:

• Remove \bin from the JAVA_HOME path.
• Open a new command prompt window.
• Run your command as administrator.

Answer 5

JAVA_HOME should be C:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.8.0_172 not include C:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.8.0_172 (;) or bin in the path. Any version of the JDK above 7 will work. Also you need to restart cmd

Answer 6

set JAVA_HOME as C: \ Program Files \ Java \ jdk1.8.0_172

do not use a semicolon ";" with the above JAVA_HOME value

To verify that it is installed correctly, go to check the command line for C: .......> sdkmanager --list

A complete list appears that allows you to successfully save it.

otherwise it will show an error that the JAVA_HOME path is not set correctly.

Answer 7

In window 10, the problem was with a semicolon ; ,

Go to edit the system environment variables and delete the semicolon at the end of the JAVA_HOME value C:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.8.0_144

In other words, convert this C:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.8.0_12; in C:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.8.0_12

Answer 8

I think you need to remove the ';' from the end of the Java path.

Answer 9

After setting the JAVA_HOME variable, run android studio as administrator

Answer 10

You need to install only with C: \ Program Files \ Java \ jdk1.8.0_12.

And check with the new cmd. Will be updated

Answer 11

• Just set your JAVA_HOME path for your jdk directory, for example C:\Program Files\Java\jdk
• You may also need to restart to update the changes.
