Missing tools.jar when launching STS application
I have the latest STS4. I am using installed java-1.8 JDK not embedded as the execution environment. My project just runs fine without any issue.
However when I launch the STS application itself I have a pop up saying "Missing tools.jar"
I have already tried:
- pointing
JAVA_HOMEto different JDK - added
-vmargs in the.inifile.
Yet I cannot get rid of this pop up.
The fix is in the -vm parameter. the order and the absolute path of the javaw.exe seems to be the issue.
the readme file mentions _ "To run Eclipse with an alternate Java runtime environment, the path to the Java virtual machine's binary must be identified. With an Eclipse installation from the distribution, altering the $PATH variable to include the path to the alternate Java runtime environment is often not enough as the Eclipse that Linux distributions package often performs a scan internally to pick up GCJ by itself whilst ignoring what's on the $PATH."
So I have edited now the SpringToolSuite4.ini and made this entry
-vm
C:\UserTemp\Softwares\java\jdk\oracle-jdk-1.8-64bit\bin\javaw.exe
Restarted my STS and it works perfect.
The reference to set the JVM Specifying the JVM was very useful in understanding this.
