I have installed java11 using
brew install java11
Then I tried the below to get JAVA_HOME
echo $JAVA_HOME
It returned empty .
so following the instructions in echo $JAVA_HOME returns nothing
when I have run ls -l /usr/bin/java
i cannot see any jvm path as shown in the above link. Below is what I got
~ % ls -l /usr/bin/java
-rwxr-xr-x 1 root wheel 168432 Dec 8 05:09 /usr/bin/java
ls -l /usr/lib/jvm/
ls: /usr/lib/jvm/: No such file or directory
How to set JAVA_HOME
>Solution :
If you’re using bash, all you have to do is:
echo export "JAVA_HOME=\$(/usr/libexec/java_home)" >> ~/.bash_profile
If you’re using zsh (which probably means you’re running macOS Catalina or newer), then it should instead be:
echo export "JAVA_HOME=\$(/usr/libexec/java_home)" >> ~/.zshrc
In either case, restart your shell.
If you have multiple JDK versions installed and you want it to be a specific one, you can use the -v flag to java_home like so:
echo export "JAVA_HOME=\$(/usr/libexec/java_home -v 1.7)" >> ~/.bash_profile
