"Could not find the Java Development Kit (JDK)" error despite having it installed

Getting Started Newbie Questions
#1

I’m using the latest daily build of Corona SDK (2019.3531), and OpenJDK 13. I’m on Windows 10.

All I have in my project is a Blank template with phone presets, and a “display.newText” call in main.lua. I haven’t changed anything else.

I’ve made sure that both my Path variable and JAVA_HOME are pointing at the JDK at this location: C:\Program Files (x86)\Java\jdk-13\bin\

I’ve tried searching for this problem online, and one of them suggested using the 32 bit version of the JDK, but that hasn’t worked either. I’m not really sure if I need the 32 bit version though, since Corona was recently updated to support the 64 bit Google Play requirements.

Any ideas?

#2

I would suggest looking through the posts in the Android 64-bit beta forum and look for suggestions on Java. I think most people have the best success with the JDK from Oracle version 8.1.
