Error : Windows cannot find 'javaw'
#Foreword
No way,,,,,,,,,, While I installed H2 Console, I found that I didn't install Java on my windows....... Even after I participated in a team project.... (How did this happen..? I need to figure out these issues too.)
Initially, I didn't diagnose what's the reason why
Windows cannot find 'javaw'
~, so I tried to leave my trace....
Anyway, I finished the verfication process for Java Intsallation (+ trouble shooting for the problem that I mentioned), I need to try to install the H2 Console again.
While I study programming, I've always encountered unexpected problems.............
Resolving this is very time-consuming work, but If I am able to resolve this well, I can easily resolve same problems when encountering............ Frankly, I don't feel fun or anything, but I believe that these efforts can help me to improve my skills, and I can refer to this process when needed.
Error : Windows cannot find 'javaw'
After installing H2 Console, and then try to access this, I encountered the error.
: Windows cannot find 'javaw'. Make sure you typed the name correctly, and then try again.
: The system cannot find the file javaw.
Open cmd : java -version
'java' is not recognized.
First Approach : Add Java bin directory to the path
To resolve this problems, I need to add the Java bin directory to the path.
You can use the following steps
- Control Panel -> System
- Advanced System settings
- Environment Variables
System variables -> path : Edit : New add ->
C:\Program Files\Java\jdk-17\bin
-> Hm,,,, I already have this...
I'd better try to take another approaches...
Second Approach : Verify Java Installation in hand operated.
Like you see, cmd java -version -->
it says, 'java' is not recognized as an internal or external comman,~~~
So, I tried to look for Java directory in Program files in person.
C:\Program Files\Java\jdk-17\bin
-> Check javaw.exe
file exists in this directory.
Windows key + e
No Java.... in this directory.
Third Approach : Java Reinstallation
I've verified Java Installation, and I'd better to reinstall Java.
Windows + R : appwiz.cpl
Programs and Features : type java on Search Programs and Features
In some cases, use upper 'J'
No way............................................. No Java on my windows,
: Wow, I am really shocked that I didn't install Java..................I've participated in Team Project on this environment,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,How come is this..............................?
Anyway, Reinstall Java first
Download Java Website : https://www.oracle.com/java/technologies/downloads/
I chose JDK 17, Windows, x64 Installer
By default, it will take this file path as destination folder.
Again, set environmental variables
Control Panel -> Systems
Advanced system settings
Environmental Variables
Set JAVA_HOME
:
- In the Environment Variables window, click
New
underSystem variables
.
Set the
Variable name
toJAVA_HOME
.Set the
Variable value
toC:\Program Files\Java\jdk-17
.
Edit the Path
Variable:
- In the Environment Variables window, under
System variables
, scroll to find thePath
variable, Select it and clickEdit
.
- Click
New
add %JAVA_HOME%\bin
Ensure this new entry (%JAVA_HOME%\bin
) appears at the top of the list
, or at least before any other Java entries. -> Ok, ok, ok
Verify Java Installation on cmd + on directory
: java -version
and javac -version
Windows + R
:appwiz.cpl
Programs and Features : type java on Search Programs and Features
Both Verification says Java is successfully installed.
As a result,
I encountered this error : Windows cannot find 'javaw'. Make sure you typed the name correctly, and then try again
while installing H2 Console.
After installing H2 Console, When I click it, it happens.
In conclusion, After these processes, there's no error anymore.
