RecompieMC failure

[CJWilk]

Okay, so I am using Minecraft Forge MDK 1.10.2-12.18.3.2221, and I went to setup my main mod folder to start working on a mod. I dragged all of the files into my main folder, then opened a command window in the folder, and typed gradlew setupDecompWorkspace. The setup would get to 73% recompileMC and from there the build would fail. It says that it is unable to find a javac compiler. Could someone help?

 

I have linked a picture of the command prompt window.

The error message tells you exactly what's wrong: The JAVA_HOME environment variable currently points to the JRE, but it needs to point to the JDK instead.

EXTRA NOTE: I have setup the Path Variable correctly, and I have modded 1.7.10. I tried making a JAVA_HOME variable like oracle suggested, but that didn't work.

I set that up by creating the Path variable, and creating a new variable called JAVA_HOME, and set those to only the JDK. It still won't work. Any idea why?

Did you reboot?

I rebooted my computer, and reran the gradlew setupDecompWorkspace and got this error. This is also after changing the JAVA_HOME variable to the jdk. Please help.

The RAM shouldn't be a problem, according to Task Manager, nothing is using my Memory.

[Leomelonseeds]

Actually, that problem is caused becaused you have too much ram going into the command.

Try setting ram settings lower.

How would I go about doing that?

(I'm kinda new to this)

[Leomelonseeds]

Not sure, try putting -Xmx500M -Xms500M after your command.

[CJWilk]

That didn't seem to work. Got the same error as before.

[Leomelonseeds]

put less or more for the numbers

[CJWilk]

That didn't seem to work. I found I don't have the newest version of JDK, I have JDK 8 101, and the newest is JDK 8 121. I trying to see if that will help.

[Leomelonseeds]

did you try putting like  -Xmx250M -Xms250M or  -Xmx1G -Xms1G   ?

Newer versions of jdk will not help you.

The updating of the JDK didn't work, I really have no idea now.

 

[Leomelonseeds]

Actually, try even smaller numbers, like 30M.

[Leomelonseeds]

Exactly how much ram u have?

[CJWilk]

Tried 250M, 30M, and 1G. Still got the error

 

[Leomelonseeds]

try even less.

I have 4 GB in the computer,

[Leomelonseeds]

ohhhhhhh, try setting it to 2G, see if that works. BTW are all the values generating the EXACT same error?
