[SOLVED] Install4J build fails with exceptions

Install4J build fails with exceptions

I have following trial version of install4j Multi-Platform Edition 10.0.2 (build 10046) installed. Also installed are JDK 17.0.4 and JDK 1.8.333 (64 bit). I am getting following exceptions whenever I try to build:

Preparing configuration

How do I fix this issue?

Solution

You do not have internet connectivity, which is a problem for a build, because code signing and JRE bundle creation require an internet connection.

install4j will try to download a suitable JDK for script compilation. If you update to the current version (10.0.4+), there will be no failure in this case, just a warning that install4j will have to use the JRE that it is running with for that purpose.
