Accessing JVM from python

Question

>>> import boilerpipe
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module>
  File "C:\Anaconda\lib\site-packages\boilerpipe\__init__.py", line 10, in <module>
    jpype.startJVM(jpype.getDefaultJVMPath(), "-Djava.class.path=%s" % os.pathsep.join(jars))
  File "C:\Anaconda\lib\site-packages\jpype\_core.py", line 50, in startJVM
    _jpype.startup(jvm, tuple(args), True)
RuntimeError: Unable to load DLL [C:\Program Files\Java\jre7\bin\client\jvm.dll], error = The specified module could not be found.
 at native\common\include\jp_platform_win32.h:58

Tried: Reinstalling jvm

>> import ctypes
>> import os
>> os.chdir(r"<path to Java bin client folder>")
>> ctypes.CDLL("jvm.dll")
Still unable to fix

Edit: Tried code below, still stuck:

from py4j.java_gateway import JavaGateway gateway = JavaGateway() It gives the same error as before.

Answer 1

Check Please !

1. Give a true path ("C:\\Program Files\\Java\\jre7\\bin\client\\jvm.dll")
2. Check all 32 or 64 bit (my offer always use 32bit Anaconda,JRE7,Python etc.)
3. Install pywin32 (of course python2.7.9)
4. Give permission to jvm.dll(can run)
5. After all is ok, try: import ctypes ctypes.CDLL('C:\\Program Files\\Java\\jre7\\bin\\client\\jvm.dll')

***Maybe can't throw the hook of some java versions i used jre-7u55-windows-i586.exe

i hope helpful ! Best regards !
