can i installed the 32 bit version (or may i?)
does the 64 bit version is not enough

Hi,
Yes, you have to install JDK 32-bit to build for Android.
We are aware of this issue and it will be fixed in the next public release.
thanks
This leads to the question of when the next public release will be announced. That’s probably not a question you can answer easily. It will help me figure out whether I should install JDK 6, or just not do any live builds until the next release.
The next public release will be in a few weeks. We are working on getting there and we can’t be more specific. I don’t believe you need JDK 6 (1.6). On Windows, I have a version of 1.8 of the Java JDK. Oracle dropped 32-bit support with JDK 1.9.
Try installing:

jdk-8u151-windows-i586.exe

Awesome. It works. Thanks for your help.
p.s. Looking forward to the next public release.
Hello,
I have installed Java SE JDK 8u151 (x86) to my windows 10 laptop and I have checked to see that it has been installed by looking in the control panel programs and it definitely appears. In addition, my BlueJ works perfectly with the JDK. However, corona just will not find the JDK and every time I attempt to build for Android I get the following error message:
‘Could not find the Java Development Kit (JDK) This is required in order to build for Android. Would you like to download it now’
I have now attempted installs of multiple different JDKs and have also tried reinstalling Corona but nothing seems to fix the issue.
Please assist I need to build for android soon
Regards,
Reece
What version of Corona are you using?
I think I have found the issue. I am using the latest daily build of corona. I have fixed the issue by doing the following: Uninstalling everything related. Which was : All JDKs I had installed and the corona app itself. Then I installed Java JDK 6u45 onto the machine. Once installed, I had to go to Control Panel > System > Advanced system settings > Environmental variables > and under the ‘path’ variable add the route to your java folder (Mine was C:\Windows(x86)\Java). Then I reinstalled corona and it finally started to build. If this doesn’t fix android building issues then honestly make a back up and wipe the system and try these steps. They honestly work but I also had issues with Java installer staying in registry after it was trying to uninstall meaning it wouldn’t. hope this helps
