jconsole from Zulu doesn't work

I have Zulu 7.1.0.0 installed on latest MS Windows (2012r2). I can run terminal and server apps, but executing jconsole produces no result: no UI shown, no error messages.

How can this be solved?

Solution

  • Azul Zulu up to version 7.1 required headless mode to be disabled in order to run UI applications. E.g.:

    jconsole -J-Djava.awt.headless=false

    Starting from Zulu 7.2, headful mode is enabled by default so the -Djava.awt.headless=false argument is no longer needed.
