This page contains instructions for installing a Java Development Kit (JDK) for Windows and Linux.
Please refer to our Supported Platforms topic for details of the Java versions that are supported for Confluence. Note: a JRE (Java Runtime Environment) is not enough to run Confluence.
Mac OS X users can ignore these instructions because this operating system comes pre-installed with a JDK.
OpenJDK is currently not supported. A JIRA issue to request support for this JDK has been created.
JDK のインストール
A JDK needs to be installed on the same server machine that will have Confluence installed.
Windows で JDK をインストールする
If you are not sure whether you have a JDK installed correctly, please confirm by doing the following:
Run a complete directory search (using the 'All File and Folders' option if available) on your drives for the occurrence of 'jdk' in the filename.
If your results retrieve a folder with the name 'jdk' immediately followed by a series of version numbers (for example, jdk1.6.0_17), then the JDK has been installed. You should double-check the contents of this folder to ensure that the installation files are intact. If you are unsure about this, proceed to step 2 to re-install the JDK. Otherwise, proceed to step 3 to check that your JAVA_HOME environment variable has been set correctly.
If you do not retrieve a result like this, then it is highly likely that the JDK has not been installed.
Check that the JAVA_HOME environment variable has been set correctly.
Open the Start menu, choose Run, type cmd in the Run dialog box and click OK.
In the command prompt window, type echo %JAVA_HOME% and then press Enter.
結果を確認します:
If a directory path is displayed that looks similar to one of the following examples, with the letters 'jdk' immediately preceding a series of version numbers, and this path matches the location where you installed the JDK in step 2, then your JDK has been successfully installed and your JAVA_HOME environment variable has been set correctly. Examples of typicalJAVA_HOMEenvironment variable values:
C:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.6.0_17
C:\Progra~1\Java\jdk1.6.0_17
C:\Java\jdk1.6.0_17
C:\jdk1.6.0_17
If nothing is displayed or you do not see 'jdk' immediately followed by a series of version numbers (like one of the examples above), then you need to set the JAVA_HOME environment variable. Please follow these instructions to set your JAVA_HOME environment variable to the directory you where you have just installed the JDK. By default, this directory is under C:\Program Files\Java.
Linux で JDK をインストールする
JDK が正しくインストールされているか分からない場合、次を実行して確認してください:
シェル コンソールを開く。
Type echo $JAVA_HOME in the shell console and then press Enter
結果を確認します:
If a line is displayed such as /opt/jdk1.6.0_12 or /usr/lib/jvm/java-6-sun, then your JDK is installed and properly configured.
If nothing is displayed, then you either need to install the JDK or set the $JAVA_HOME environment variable. You can set this environment variable in your user account's 'profile' file. Alternatively, you can set this after installing Confluence (in step 4 below) by defining this path in your Confluence installation's setenv.sh file, usually located in the Confluence bin directory.
