Can not find Java Runtime Environment Says ArgoUML

Question

I have properly installed jdk in my system, I have also set the CLASSPATH properly, but when I am installing ArgoUML, it shows a Message the No JRE found, what should I do?

Answer 1

I've just had this problem too, with a properly installed x64 JRE 8u45. Don't know if the Windows exe installer expects an x86 jvm?

Anyway, download the binary package zip instead from Tigris (dead) GitHub Releases and unzip somewhere. It runs fine from there * with argouml.bat, you just don't get a start menu entry added.

• EDIT: Your PATH must be correct to find the java.exe, easy way to check is to open a new Cmd shell (Start > Run... > cmd) and type java -version you should get something back from the jvm

Answer 2

Check if JAVA_HOME environment variable is set (it should contain the directory your JRE is installed to).

Answer 3

I have the same problem on WIN7_X64.

I have installed it manually, here some steps:

• Download the argouml-0.34 zip file
• Extract the archive to install_dir Ex: C:\Program Files (x86)\ArgoUML-0.34 (to make it visible for all users)
• Create a shortcut ArgoUML in C:\ProgramData\Microsoft\Windows\Start Menu\Programs with the following information:

Target: "install_dir\argouml.jar" Ex: "C:\Program Files (x86)\ArgoUML-0.34\argouml.jar"

Start in: "install_dir" Ex: "C:\Program Files (x86)\ArgoUML-0.34"

Change Icon...: browse to install_dir\ArgoUML.ico Ex: C:\Program Files (x86)\ArgoUML-0.34\ArgoUML.ico

You ca use argouml.bat but the above steps are more than enough.

Answer 4

I installed windows x64 first but it didn't work.

Then I installed windows x86 offline and it worked. Simple!
