Vscode-java: Windows 10 Couldn't start client Java Language Server even with java_home set

[Manish-Giri]

When I open a java project in VSCode and click on a .java file, I get the error - "Couldn't start client Java Language Server". Screenshot below -

I already have the JAVA_HOME environment variable set -

and also java.home set in VSCode user settings -

Environment

• Operating System: Windows 10
• JDK version: 11.0.1
• Visual Studio Code version: 1.30.2
• Java extension version: 0.38.0

Steps To Reproduce

1. Open a java file in a java project

Additional Informations

I also get additional errors, like "Classpath is incomplete". Even though I opened a complete intellij generated project and a netbeans generated project in 2 different windows.

[snjeza]

I already have the JAVA_HOME environment variable set -

@Manish-Giri Could you try set JAVA_HOME to C:\Program Files\Java\jdk-11.0.1?

• Open the command palette (F1)
• select Developer: Toggle Developer Tools

report any errors you see in the console

I'm having the same issues... here's my log
"java.home": "C:\Program Files\Java\jdk-11.0.2"

@Leomedina could you try

"java.home": "C:\\Program Files\\Java\\jdk-11.0.2"

[Leomedina]

@snjeza thanks for catching that. - that was on me. I pasted the wrong text.

My java.home is actually:

"java.home": "C:\\Program Files\\Java\\jdk-11.0.2"

[snjeza]

Could you show the output of the following commands:

dir "C:\Program Files\Java\jdk-11.0.2"
dir "C:\Program Files\Java\jdk-11.0.2\bin"

[Leomedina]

@snjeza Here's the output:

@Leomedina could you remove the georgewfraser.vscode-javac extension and install RedHat vscode-java - https://marketplace.visualstudio.com/items?itemName=redhat.java

[Leomedina]

@miggymiggoi The errors you listed here are seems from atom, but not VSCode.

[johng42]

Side note: I was getting this error as well and triple checked everything above for env variables, etc...

The key for me was to launch VSCode as an admin. At that point, everything started working.

Frustrating because setup/install specifically recommended NOT running install as an admin.

Hope this helps.

[Rollins-MAKUWA]

thank you.

[manasbiparajuli]

thanks, @snjeza. Removing George's extension worked for me as well.

Hope this helps.

I had the same issue here like everyone else, and opening VS Code as an Admin, the message about not starting java Language is no more. Not sure how else to run VS Code Java not as Admin and prevent the message from showing or how to fix it?

[quiles909]

@Leomedina could you remove the georgewfraser.vscode-javac extension and install RedHat vscode-java - https://marketplace.visualstudio.com/items?itemName=redhat.java

That worked, thanks!

[djkong7]

I am having the same issue.

Brand new install of Windows 10.

JAVA_HOME: "C:\Program Files\AdoptOpenJDK\jdk-11.0.8.10-hotspot"

1. Open the command palette (F1)
2. select Developer: Toggle Developer Tools

[[object Object]]Internal error.

and

Error: Internal error.
at c:\Users\djkong7.vscode\extensions\redhat.java-0.68.0\dist\extension.js:1:76464
at c:\Users\djkong7.vscode\extensions\redhat.java-0.68.0\dist\extension.js:1:76758
at Immediate. (c:\Users\djkong7.vscode\extensions\redhat.java-0.68.0\dist\extension.js:1:77117)
at processImmediate (internal/timers.js:439:21)

These two errors are logged thousands of times.

I can't try "remove the georgewfraser.vscode-javac extension and install RedHat vscode-java -" because I've never had it installed.

Also tried to launch VSCode as admin. No luck.

Upon further searching, I found https://github.com/redhat-developer/vscode-java/issues/1588 . Maybe someone here has some ideas.

[snjeza]

@djkong7 Could you attach your settings.json?

[djkong7]

@snjeza Yeah! Here you go.

{
"editor.suggestSelection": "first",
"vsintellicode.modify.editor.suggestSelection": "automaticallyOverrodeDefaultValue",
"terminal.integrated.shell.windows": "C:\Program Files\PowerShell\7\pwsh.exe",
"java.trace.server": "verbose",
"java.configuration.checkProjectSettingsExclusions": false
}

[snjeza]

@djkong7 Could you try to add:

"java.home": "C:\\Program Files\\AdoptOpenJDK\\jdk-11.0.8.10-hotspot",

backslashes must be escaped (duplicated)

[djkong7]

@snjeza Looks like I'm still having the same issue. New settings.json:

{
    "editor.suggestSelection": "first",
    "vsintellicode.modify.editor.suggestSelection": "automaticallyOverrodeDefaultValue",
    "terminal.integrated.shell.windows": "C:\\Program Files\\PowerShell\\7\\pwsh.exe",
    "java.trace.server": "verbose",
    "java.configuration.checkProjectSettingsExclusions": false,
    "java.home": "C:\\Program Files\\AdoptOpenJDK\\jdk-11.0.8.10-hotspot"
}

same errors as before. Here is a screenshot of my Java Runtime Configuration.

[snjeza]

Could you try to Clean the workspace directory ?

[djkong7]

Same issue and same error messages after following the steps:

Open the command palette (F1)
select Java: Clean the Java language server workspace
click Restart and delete

[snjeza]

@djkong7 could you attach your logs:
%APPDATA%\Code\User\workspaceStorage\\redhat.java - whole this directory

[djkong7]

@snjeza So %APPDATA%\Code\User\workspaceStorage\redhat.java is around 7.5GB. I backed up that folder and restarted VSCode to get a new folder that should hopefully have the same error logs in it, just much smaller.
redhat.java.zip

I was able to zip the original folder and get it down to 400MB. 15MB with 7zip if you'll accept that.

[snjeza]

@djkong7 could you try to move your project to C:\ and try to open it?

[djkong7]

@snjeza That seemed to work! Is running projects that reside in \\wsl$ something that is officially not supported?

[snjeza]

@djkong7 you can try Remote development in WSL

[djkong7]

@snjeza Ahh, gotcha. I guess it gets confusing when to use that or not since you can now browse WSL files natively in windows explorer. Thank you for your help!

Thanks buddy, this solved my issue also.
