i am working with react native and am trying to use expo in a bare project but whenever i try to run the app with the command npm run android, i get this error :
Execution failed for task ':expo-modules-core:compileDebugJavaWithJavac'.
> Could not resolve all files for configuration ':expo-modules-core:androidJdkImage'.
> Failed to transform core-for-system-modules.jar to match attributes {artifactType=_internal_android_jdk_image, org.gradle.libraryelements=jar, org.gradle.usage=java-runtime}.
> Execution failed for JdkImageTransform: /home/dukizwe/Android/Sdk/platforms/android-31/core-for-system-modules.jar.
> jlink executable /usr/lib/jvm/java-14-openjdk-amd64/bin/jlink does not exist.
I am using the linux OS, Android studio and JDK are correctly installed.
Inside /usr/lib/jvm/ folder, the structure look like this:
i don't know why it's looking in the java-14-openjdk-amd64 folder because in that folder there's no jlink executable.
In android studio the SDK Location si pointed to java-11-openjdk. Any help please ?
I also faced same issue when I did run my React Native app on my new Ubuntu 22.x machine. I fixed it with installing JRE along with JDK.
Step 1 sudo apt install default-jre followed by java -version
should display -
Output openjdk version "11.0.14" 2022-01-18 OpenJDK Runtime Environment (build 11.0.14+9-Ubuntu-0ubuntu2) OpenJDK 64-Bit Server VM (build 11.0.14+9-Ubuntu-0ubuntu2, mixed mode, sharing)
Followed by -
sudo apt install default-jdk
Check - javac -version to get output as -
Output javac 11.0.14
Hope it helps!
