Hello, I need some help!

I install sdkman successfully and install Java and gradle with sdkman!

java -version

OpenJDK Runtime Environment (Zulu 8.21.0.1-linux64) (build 1.8.0_131-b11)
OpenJDK 64-Bit Server VM (Zulu 8.21.0.1-linux64) (build 25.131-b11, mixed mode)

gradle --version

all good!

now I download IntelliJ ce

I decompress the file on /opt/Idea and run bin/idea.sh all fine but when run intellij from the icon menu i have this

modified my .bashrc

#THIS MUST BE AT THE END OF THE FILE FOR SDKMAN TO WORK!!!
export SDKMAN_DIR="/home/juanib/.sdkman"
[[ -s "/home/juanib/.sdkman/bin/sdkman-init.sh" ]] && source "/home/juanib/.sdkman/bin/sdkman-init.sh"

export JAVA_HOME="/home/juanib/.sdkman/candidates/java/current"
export GRADLE_HOME="/home/juanib/.sdkman/candidates/gradle/current"

close the sesion and login but not found!

some tips!

[marc0der]

Not sure why this is happening, it could be because the JDK you installed is not an Oracle JDK. Please do not add these export statements to the end of your .bashrc, as these are generated dynamically by SDKMAN. Not the text right above: #THIS MUST BE AT THE END OF THE FILE FOR SDKMAN TO WORK!!!.

In future, please consider trying our Gitter user-issues channel before opening an Issue here.

[pstephenwille]

Same here, but still no love.

Did you find the solution?

[stevo-knievo]

I have the same problem.

IntelliJ IDEA 2018.2.4

here my .bash_profile

# THIS MUST BE AT THE END OF THE FILE FOR SDKMAN TO WORK!!!
export SDKMAN_DIR="/Users/stefan/.sdkman"
[[ -s "/Users/stefan/.sdkman/bin/sdkman-init.sh" ]] && source "/Users/stefan/.sdkman/bin/sdkman-init.sh"

export JAVA_HOME="~/.sdkman/candidates/java/current"

$ java -version
openjdk version "11" 2018-09-25
OpenJDK Runtime Environment 18.9 (build 11+28)
OpenJDK 64-Bit Server VM 18.9 (build 11+28, mixed mode)

Did someone figure it out?

[marc0der]

This is because sdkman gets sourced in the shell and you are starting
IntelliJ outside of the shell. Try running IntelliJ from the shell using
the idea.sh and IntelliJ will pick it up.

@marc0der did it exactly that way, unfortunately I have exactly the same problem: IntelliJ Idea does not show any SDK. A pitty :(

[marc0der]

Right, we are talking about two different things here. The first is that
intellij does not pick up Java and can thus not start up.

The second is that IDEA does not pick up installed JDKs for use in your
projects. The solution for this is to simply add it manually. All your JDKs
are stored under ~/.sdkman/candidates/java.

We have an open ticket on IDEA's youtrack for this very issue so please
vote for it:

I know this is closed, but you can set JAVA_HOME globally on MAC OS with launchctl

launchctl setenv JAVA_HOME $(/usr/libexec/java_home -v 1.8)

or

launchctl setenv JAVA_HOME ~/.sdkman/candidates/java/current

[agilob]

Not the best practice, but fix this error globally on any Linux
Please ensure JAVA_HOME points to JDK rather than JRE.

Put something like this:

JAVA_HOME=/home/agilob/.sdkman/candidates/java/current

to /etc/environment just change your username

[marc0der]

It's definitely not good practice to place anything pointing to your home directory in /etc/environment or /etc/profile. Please do not do this.

[magalhaes-andre]

If you guys still struggling with this, maybe one solution (the one that worked with me) is creating a symbolic link to some visible folder from the .sdkman/candidates/java/current/

[retornam]

For those still looking to fix this / those arriving from search engines. The steps below worked for me.

First create a symlink to the ~/.sdkman folder.

ln -s ~/.sdkman ~/sdkman

Your desired JDK version can be selected afterwards by navigating to the output of the command below in the IntelliJ UI

echo "/Users/$(whoami)/.sdkman/candidates/"
