[Solved]Error With setupDecompworkspace at recompile phase [Gradle/Eclipse]

[spazzmods]

* What went wrong:
Execution failed for task ':recompileMc'.
> Unable to find a javac compiler;
com.sun.tools.javac.Main is not on the classpath.
Perhaps JAVA_HOME does not point to the JDK.
It is currently set to "C:\Program Files\Java\jre1.8.0_91"

 

However straightforward that error is, my pathing is spot on(windows 10):

C:\ProgramData\Oracle\Java\javapath;C:\Windows\system32;C:\Windows;C:\Windows\System32\Wbem;C:\Windows\System32\WindowsPowerShell\v1.0\;C:\Program Files (x86)\NVIDIA Corporation\PhysX\Common;C:\Program Files (x86)\Java\jdk1.8.0_91\bin;C:\Program Files (x86)\Java\jre1.8.0_91\bin

 

And I've already restarted a few times just in case.

 

SOLUTION:

Create a JAVA_HOME path and path it to the JDK.

Thank you @Choonster

PATH

is not

JAVA_HOME

. You have

JAVA_HOME

pointing to a JRE rather than a JDK.

[spazzmods]

Alright, so how would I go about fixing that?

[Choonster]

Set the

JAVA_HOME

environment variable to the path of your JDK.

 

In Windows 10, you can do this by searching for "environment variables" in the Start menu.

So, because it didn't actually exist that was one of the things I needed to add into the variables completely. like this:

 

 

is that correct?

Yes.

I have the same problem, but even after downloading the jdk- 8u101 from Oracle, and directing the Environment Variable JAVA_HOME to it, it still says "Build Failed!"

 

Execution failed for task ':makeStart'.

> Unable to find a javac compiler;

com.sun.tools.javac.Main is not on the classpath.

Perhaps JAVA_HOME does not point to the JDK.

It is currently set to "C:\Program Files\Java\jre1.8.0_91"

Just like the OP, you've set

JAVA_HOME

to the JRE path instead of the JDK path.
