Mixing
I am trying to change the IDE for IntelliJ, but It keeps running the wrong version
I have a class on Software Engineering and we have a gradle project for a sales system. It requires java 8 to operate, which I have installed on my computer. I also have java 9, which I use for anything else besides that class.
I have a very tedious problem that I can't seem to fix: I can't seem to get intelliJ to use java 8.
I've tried the following things:
File - Project structure
Under "Project" - Java 8
Under "Modules" - Everything is set to use Project SDK (1.8)
Under "SDKs" - I only have "1.8" there
Ctrl + Shift + A -> "Switch IDE boot JDK..."
I have 3 options there:
- 1.8.0_152 java (b16) [boot]
- 1.8.0_152 openjdk (release-1024-b11)[bundled]
- 1.8.0_181 java (b13)
I've tried all of those but still nothing.
When I open up the project, it says
C:Program FilesJavajdk1.8.0_181binjava...
In the "Run" Tab down below. However, when I type
java -version
Into the "Terminal" tab, it says
java version "9.0.4"
Java(TM) SE Runtime Environment (build 9.0.4+11)
Java HotSpot(TM) 64-Bit Server VM (build 9.0.4+11, mixed mode)
When I try to execute any gradlew command, for example hsql or run
I get this error:
FAILURE: Build failed with an exception.
* What went wrong:
Could not determine java version from '9.0.4'.
* Try:
Run with --stacktrace option to get the stack trace. Run with --info or --
debug option to get more log output.
I've tried running our main gradle.build file and not running it before trying those commands, but it doesn't make a difference. Our build.gradle file, if it helps anything:
apply plugin: 'java'
apply plugin: 'application'
repositories {
mavenCentral()
}
version = '1.0'
dependencies {
compile project(':')
compile group: 'org.apache.logging.log4j', name: 'log4j-api', version: '2.6.2'
compile group: 'org.apache.logging.log4j', name: 'log4j-core', version: '2.6.2'
}
mainClassName = 'ee.ut.math.tvt.salessystem.ui.SalesSystemUI'
jar {
doFirst {
manifest {
if (!configurations.runtime.isEmpty()) {
attributes('Class-Path': configurations.runtime.collect{it.toURI().toString()}.join(' '))
}
}
}
manifest {
attributes 'Implementation-Title': 'Gradle Quickstart',
'Implementation-Version': version,
'Main-Class': mainClassName
}
}
My other team member doesn't seem to have a problem and can run it nicely. Any help will be REALLY appreciated.

I don't think changing the IntelliJ Java Project version is going to change your terminal version. Run a program and printSystem.getProperty("java.version"), what does it say?

If running through Intellij, check your settings inBuild, Execution, Deployment > Build Tools > Gradleto make sure Gradle is using the correct JDK. If running through the terminal you can change the used JDK with-Dorg.gradle.java.home=<path>.

If worst comes to worst, you could try uninstalling Java 9 and running your program. If any settings were set to use Java 9, they will either switch to Java 8 or IntelliJ will ask you to change them. Once you got that working, you could reinstall Java 9 and cross your fingers IntelliJ doesn't change it back for you.

I thik you have to specify Gradle to use the JVM you want.
Go to settings -> Build, Execution, Deployment -> Gradle-> Gradle JVM and choose the JDK you want. (It's pointed in this thread : https://stackoverflow.com/a/43624456/2799066 )
AFAIK giving JVM and command line arguments can also be configurable when importing project to idea.

Ok, then I think it may be issue with your JAVA_HOME environment variable. Check if it's pointing your 9.0.4 installation.

I didn't even have a JAVA_HOME environment variable before so I looked it up, craeted it, and restarted my computer. Now it's set to jdk1.8.0_181, however terminal's java -version is still giving me 9.0.4 as the answer.

The terminal window in IntelliJ IDEA is independent of any IDE setting. Thejavacommand does not look at the JAVA_HOME environment variable; instead, the command shell simply runs the firstjavaexecutable that is found in thePATHenvironment variable.

I think I got it working.
I clicked File -> New -> Project from existing sources -> Picked the Project folder and that I wish to overwrite it
Then I set up the initial gradle settings that open up when starting a brand new gradle project and voila, terminal now understands gradlew commands.
It's weird, however, that java -version still shows 9.0.4, but well at least everything seems to work now.
Tl;Dr for fix: Create a New project from existing sources and overwrite the current project. Pick the correct java version when asked during the setup.

java -versionhas nothing to do with IntelliJ. It's like typing into the command prompt. You weren't changing your system default jdk, just your JDK that compiles and runs your project.

I didn't even have a JAVA_HOME environment variable before so I looked it up, craeted it, and restarted my computer. Now it's set to jdk1.8.0_181, however terminal's java -version is still giving me 9.0.4 as the answer.

The terminal window in IntelliJ IDEA is independent of any IDE setting. Thejavacommand does not look at the JAVA_HOME environment variable; instead, the command shell simply runs the firstjavaexecutable that is found in thePATHenvironment variable.

Ok, then I think it may be issue with your JAVA_HOME environment variable. Check if it's pointing your 9.0.4 installation.

I think I got it working.
I clicked File -> New -> Project from existing sources -> Picked the Project folder and that I wish to overwrite it
Then I set up the initial gradle settings that open up when starting a brand new gradle project and voila, terminal now understands gradlew commands.
It's weird, however, that java -version still shows 9.0.4, but well at least everything seems to work now.
Tl;Dr for fix: Create a New project from existing sources and overwrite the current project. Pick the correct java version when asked during the setup.

java -versionhas nothing to do with IntelliJ. It's like typing into the command prompt. You weren't changing your system default jdk, just your JDK that compiles and runs your project.

I don't think changing the IntelliJ Java Project version is going to change your terminal version. Run a program and print
System.getProperty("java.version"), what does it say?– Frzn Flms

If running through Intellij, check your settings in
Build, Execution, Deployment > Build Tools > Gradleto make sure Gradle is using the correct JDK. If running through the terminal you can change the used JDK with-Dorg.gradle.java.home=<path>.– Slaw

If worst comes to worst, you could try uninstalling Java 9 and running your program. If any settings were set to use Java 9, they will either switch to Java 8 or IntelliJ will ask you to change them. Once you got that working, you could reinstall Java 9 and cross your fingers IntelliJ doesn't change it back for you.
