Resolving version conflict between java and javac on Ubuntu

问题

I have a problem with my compiled Java application on Ubuntu. It throws UnsupportedClassVersionError. I am compiling with a higher JDK version than the one that is configured in my PATH to run Java:

$ javac -version
javac 1.7.0_147

$ java -version
java version "1.6.0_23"
OpenJDK Runtime Environment (IcedTea6 1.11pre) (6b23~pre11-0ubuntu1.11.10.2)
OpenJDK Client VM (build 20.0-b11, mixed mode, sharing)

How can I resolve this?

回答1:

Run either of the following to locate where the location is of that

javac 1.7.0_147

being used as follows:

whereis javac

 locate javac

find javac

Then once you found the directory, symbolically and forcefully link the bin contents to /usr/bin:

sudo ln -f -s [put location here]/bin/* /usr/bin

回答2:

Type following coomand in terminal :

  sudo update-alternatives --config java

It will ask you for:

There are 2 choices for the alternative java (providing /usr/bin/java).

  Selection      Path                                            Priority   Status

    0           /usr/lib/jvm/java-6-openjdk-amd64/jre/bin/java   1061      auto mode

    1           /usr/lib/jvm/java-6-openjdk-amd64/jre/bin/java   1061      manual mode

    2            /usr/lib/jvm/java-7-openjdk-amd64/jre/bin/java  1051      manual mode


  Press enter to keep the current choice[*], or type selection number:

I enter 2 as I want to use java 1.7.0_21

You will also need to do:

sudo update-alternatives --config javac

Select the desired java compiler from the list provided. For example on Centos 5

There are 2 programs which provide 'javac'.
Selection    Command
-----------------------------------------------
1           /usr/lib/jvm/java-1.6.0-openjdk/bin/javac
*+ 2        /usr/lib/jvm/java-1.7.0-openjdk/bin/javac

This is what you want Java and Ubuntu. I have the same config basically, but I am switching back and forth from Glassfish and Java7. Take a look and try setting up your Java env in a similar fashion

I have added and installed alternatives for Java and Javac with below steps it work for me :

Steps 1: Add the Java and Javac alternatives :

Command to add Javac:

sudo update-alternatives --install "/usr/bin/java" "java" "/opt/amazon-jdk-11/bin/java" 1

i.e : "/opt/amazon-jdk-11/bin/javac" this the new path of java

sudo update-alternatives --install "/usr/bin/javac" "javac" "/opt/amazon-jdk-11/bin/javac" 1

i.e : /opt/amazon-jdk-11/bin/javac is the new path of javac

Steps 2: Installed the Java and Javac alternatives :

sudo update-alternatives --config javac
sudo update-alternatives --config javac

Once you enter above command you will able to see screen like below you can select your number that you want to configure java.

I have selected " 1 "int the list as I wanted to installed "/opt/amazon-jdk-11/bin/java" as my javac.

Verify your Java alternative installation is successful or not with below commands :

which javac and which java you will able to see screen like below :
