Gradle Could not find tools.jar


I am trying to make a game with LibGdx. I love it! It is sooo simple and a lot better than JME3 and LWJGL. But trying to package it I am having an error. Here is an image of the gui for Gradle: http://prntscr.com/845kyx and here is a the full debug error: http://pastebin.com/ugdfySg1 Now I don't know how to debug those errors and what not, so I hope someone can help. I have also tried to re-create the entire project, and make it a eclipse valid project, instead of just Gradle. None of that worked. enter image description here


Solution

  • You have to set the system property "java.home" and the environment variable JAVA_HOME to a valid JDK.

    To set the environment variable run: export JAVA_HOME=/usr/lib/jvm/java-8-openjdk-amd64
