@WTFMaster
Thanks for your report.

I will try to replicate, but can only do this on x86_64 machie.

Meanwhile could you force the error again and scroll down to the last error log line please:
G_AGI openjdk-8-jre-headless openjdk-8-jdk-headless
Use the page up/down keys do navigate through the log. Somehow the scroll bar is not shown here 🤔.

OR

apt-get -y install openjdk-8-jre-headless openjdk-8-jdk-headless
And copy/paste the last lines of your terminal output.

Okay works fine here on VM, so it's either RPi/Raspbian-, or, setup-specific.

First of all, use apt-get install openjdk-8-jre-headless, just to assure the desired Java version is installed. But okay on Stretch currently the result is the same.

Hmm, I remember this ca-certificates-java occurring already in the past...

I think it is somehow due to a dependency and install order loop.

• ca-certificates-java > openjdk-8-jre-headless: https://packages.debian.org/de/stretch/ca-certificates-java
• and openjdk-8-jre-headless > ca-certificates-java: https://packages.debian.org/de/stretch/openjdk-8-jre-headless

AFAIK the code in the past included both, try:
apt-get -y install ca-certificates-java openjdk-8-jre-headless

apt-get install ca-certificates-java

@WTFMaster
Hmm installed already but not configured, argh.

So first try: apt-get -f install
Somewhere when installing openjdk the error message about non-configured package should appear. The following should fail:

dpkg --configure ca-certificates-java # Since it depends on JRE
dpkg --configure openjdk-8-jre-headless # Since it depends on ca-certificates-java..

If this is the case, damn loop. Try to restart from scratch:

apt purge ca-certificates-java openjdk-8-jre-headless openjdk-8-jdk-headless default-jre-headless
dpkg -P ca-certificates-java openjdk-8-jre-headless openjdk-8-jdk-headless default-jre-headless
apt install ca-certificates-java openjdk-8-jre-headless openjdk-8-jdk-headless

@WTFMaster
Ah so finally every is installed and configured? Okay then the dietpi-software install should work now.

Still we have to assure the APT install is done without running into this. But we can do this with some tests our side.

[MichaIng]

Damn me, I removed the workaround for an indeed known issue: https://github.com/Fourdee/DietPi/issues/1340#issuecomment-389902031
https://github.com/Fourdee/DietPi/commit/6490e6dc5d945043a1d41dabc62546135ef1c612

Was not carefully enough reading the link and test passed on VM, but it is an ARM specific issue, now verified to still exist. Will re-add the workaround from before.

PR up to re-add workaround, this time for Jessie as well, to be failsafe: https://github.com/Fourdee/DietPi/pull/2539

Tested on my RPi 1B (armv6l) and it installed without problems.
This error is still printed during installation:

Processing triggers for ca-certificates (20161130+nmu1+deb9u1) ...
Updating certificates in /etc/ssl/certs...
0 added, 0 removed; done.
Running hooks in /etc/ca-certificates/update.d...

E: /etc/ca-certificates/update.d/jks-keystore exited with code 1.

But the installation process finshes fine, java works, and if I call update-ca-certificates manually, the missing JVM error does not occur.

@WilburWalsh
Thanks for testing. Jep the error is expected. We simply run a second APT install step to have it resolved then. Nasty thing that actually should be resolved Raspbian repo side, but at least the workaround works.

[Gill-Bates]

Solved. Awesome!
