[jira] [Commented] (GROOVY-7788) Groovy does not run on 64 bit Windows 7

I recommend, in addition, opening a CMD prompt as administrator, and doing this: set JAVA_HOME=[your 64-bit JDK/JRE location] cd [place where you placed the Groovy installer] groovy-2.4.6-installer.exe [in my case, I'm installing 2.4.6] This separates the install of groovy and the 64-bit JDK from changes to the system PATH (or the contents of the %SYSTEM% directory). Also note, I had to do something similar with the installation of the SDK within Cygwin -- I guess I have two copies of groovy installed? I point this out because the logic to detect the JDK version seems to malfunction during Cygwin install, so patching the Windows setup exe may not be sufficient > Groovy does not run on 64 bit Windows 7 > --- > > Key: GROOVY-7788 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/GROOVY-7788 > Project: Groovy > Issue Type: Bug > Components: windows installer >Affects Versions: 2.4.6 > Environment: Microsoft Windows 7 Enterprise 64 bit > java version 1.8.0_65 > Java(TM) SE Runtime Environment (build 1.8.0_65-b17) > Java HotSpot(TM) 64-Bit server VM (build 25.65-b01, mixed mode) >Reporter: Shawn Cole >Priority: Minor > Labels: windows > > When I try to execute groovy I get: > error: dynamic library C:\Program > Files\Java\jdk1.8.0_65\jre\bin\server\jvm.dll exists but could not be loaded! > This may be caused e.g. by trying to use a 32-bit executable to load a 64-bit > jvm (or vice versa) > error (win code 193): (null) > error: could not find client or server jvm under C:\Program > Files\Java\jdk1.8.0_65 > please check that it is a valid jdk / jre containing the desired type of jvm > I have a 64 bit machine and 64 bit java, with my JAVA_HOME pointing to > C:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.8.0_65 > The problem seems to be when I ran the windows installer, it installed a 32 > bit version of groovy on my machine that is not able to run on the 64 bit JVM. > Is there any workarounds to this? and please don't say install the 32 bit > version of java, because if that is the only solution i'd rather just not > learn this language.

Obviously, it would be a problem if Java wasn't installed or if a different architecture of Java was in JAVA_HOME when the installer was run (as you have noticed). I'll add a message box to the installer so it's clear what version it's installing. Longer term, I'm thinking I'll re-implement the binaries with Launch4J instead of C and that should eliminate the need for the installer to do any Java detection.

One workaround is to ensure you run the installer in a cmd prompt with the 64-bit version of Java in the path. Long-term, we should fix that. The quick workaround is just to delete all the *.exe files. Like you already noted, that bat files will work fine. They are just a bit more brittle at handling some of the trickier parameter passing scenarios. > Groovy does not run on 64 bit Windows 7 > --- > > Key: GROOVY-7788 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/GROOVY-7788 > Project: Groovy > Issue Type: Bug > Components: windows installer >Affects Versions: 2.4.6 > Environment: Microsoft Windows 7 Enterprise 64 bit > java version 1.8.0_65 > Java(TM) SE Runtime Environment (build 1.8.0_65-b17) > Java HotSpot(TM) 64-Bit server VM (build 25.65-b01, mixed mode) >Reporter: Shawn Cole >Priority: Minor > Labels: windows > > When I try to execute groovy I get: > error: dynamic library C:\Program > Files\Java\jdk1.8.0_65\jre\bin\server\jvm.dll exists but could not be loaded! > This may be caused e.g. by trying to use a 32-bit executable to load a 64-bit > jvm (or vice versa) > error (win code 193): (null) > error: could not find client or server jvm under C:\Program > Files\Java\jdk1.8.0_65 > please check that it is a valid jdk / jre containing the desired type of jvm > I have a 64 bit machine and 64 bit java, with my JAVA_HOME pointing to > C:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.8.0_65 > The problem seems to be when I ran the windows installer, it installed a 32 > bit version of groovy on my machine that is not able to run on the 64 bit JVM. > Is there any workarounds to this? and please don't say install the 32 bit > version of java, because if that is the only solution i'd rather just not > learn this language.

I tested with jdk1.8.0_73 64-bit in the same path and Groovy 2.4.6 Windows
Installer. Both {{Start GroovyConsole}} from All Programs > Groovy-2.4.6 and
{{groovy.exe -e "sleep 1"}} at the command line work with no errors. Just
a thought, if you type {{path}} at the command line are there any other JDK
directories in the path?
