Failed to run sdkmanager --list with Java 9

Java Android Android Sdk-Tools Java 9 Android Sdk-Manager

Java Problem Overview

I downloaded and installed:

JDK (jdk-9.0.1_osx-x64_bin.dmg) from Oracle here
Android SDK (sdk-tools-darwin-3859397.zip) from Google here.

After configuring the PATH variable, I tried running sdkmanager, which replaced the android command for managing SDK components. However, it failed as shown here:

$ sdkmanager --list
Exception in thread "main" java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: javax/xml/bind/annotation/XmlSchema

Here is the Java version:

$ java -version
java version "9.0.1"
Java(TM) SE Runtime Environment (build 9.0.1+11)
Java HotSpot(TM) 64-Bit Server VM (build 9.0.1+11, mixed mode)

Does anyone know how to fix it without going back to Java 8?

https://stackoverflow.com/q/46402772/142239
- This post asked a similar question. However, the post is closed and the only answer suggests going back to Java 8.

WARNING

Please note that I already mentioned above that going back to Java 8 or running it side-by-side is NOT what I wanted.

Java Solutions

Solution 1 - Java

With the help of this answer, I successfully solved the problem.

We are going to apply a fix in sdkmanager. It is a shell script. It is located at $android_sdk/tools/bin, where $android_sdk is where you unzipped the Android SDK.

Open sdkmanager in your favorite editor.
Locate the line which sets the DEFAULT_JVM_OPTSvariable. In my copy, it is at line 31:
```
 DEFAULT_JVM_OPTS='"-Dcom.android.sdklib.toolsdir=$APP_HOME"'
```
Append the following options to the variable: -XX:+IgnoreUnrecognizedVMOptions --add-modules java.se.ee. Please pay attention to the quotes. In my copy, the line becomes:
```
 DEFAULT_JVM_OPTS='"-Dcom.android.sdklib.toolsdir=$APP_HOME" -XX:+IgnoreUnrecognizedVMOptions --add-modules java.se.ee'
```
Save the file and quit the editor.
Run the command again.

Here is the result:

$ sdkmanager --list
Installed packages:
  Path    | Version | Description              | Location

Hola! It works!

-- Edit: 2017-11-07 --

Please note that you may need to apply the fix above again after running sdkmanager --update, since the sdkmanager shell script may be overridden if the tools package is updated.

https://stackoverflow.com/a/43574427/142239
- @andy-guibert pointed out the necessary options to make this work. He also briefly what those mysterious options mean.

Solution 2 - Java

You can set sdkmanager options with SDKMANAGER_OPTS.

Example:

export SDKMANAGER_OPTS="--add-modules java.se.ee"
sdkmanager --list

Solution 3 - Java

The accepted answer is outdated as of February 2019. Here's an answer that will work until sdkmanager migrates to a newer version of Java. But by then, you won't have this problem anymore.

> OpenJDK 10 was superseeded by OpenJDK 11, which doesn't implement java.se.ee at all. This means that the hack of adding --add-modules java.se.ee doesn't do anything anymore. It also means that OpenJDK 10 will be automatically removed from your system and replaced with OpenJDK 11 the next time you update, if your updates are configured properly. > > Modify sdkmanager to use Java 8 by setting JAVA_HOME inside sdkmanager to a Java 8 installation. It's, by default, at ~/Android/Sdk/tools/bin/sdkmanager. > > shell > # Add default JVM options here. You can also use JAVA_OPTS and SDKMANAGER_OPTS to pass JVM options $ > JAVA_HOME=/usr/lib/jvm/java-1.8.0-openjdk-amd64 > DEFAULT_JVM_OPTS='"-Dcom.android.sdklib.toolsdir=$APP_HOME" -XX:+IgnoreUnrecognizedVMOptions' > > > batchfile > @rem Add default JVM options here.

Solution 4 - Java

When having java 11 in the system, the solutions provided are not valid.

This -XX:+IgnoreUnrecognizedVMOptions --add-modules java.se.ee or --add-modules java.xml.bind do not work with Java 11 on Mac OS.

For that reason you have to downgrade java version to version 8 from here: http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/java/javase/downloads/jdk8-downloads-2133151.html

List Java versions installed

/usr/libexec/java_home -V

Java 11

export JAVA_HOME=$(/usr/libexec/java_home -v 11)

Java 1.8

export JAVA_HOME=$(/usr/libexec/java_home -v 1.8)

Then go to

cd ~/Library/Android/sdk/tools/bin

and

./sdkmanager --licenses

Solution 5 - Java

Update 2019-10:

As stated in the issue tracker, Google has been working on a new SDK tools release that runs on current JVMs (9+)!

You can download and use the new Android SDK Command-line Tools inside Android Studio or by manually downloading them from the Google servers:

For the latest versions check the URLs inside the repository.xml.

If you manually unpack the command line tools, take care of placing them in a subfolder inside your $ANDROID_HOME (e.g. $ANDROID_HOME/cmdline-tools/...).

Update 2021-03:

The latest stable command-line tools are also available at Googles Downloads-Website

Solution 6 - Java

For Windows, if nothing works then try this:

Open sdkmanager.bat with Notepad.
Locate the following line:

%JAVA_EXE%" %DEFAULT_JVM_OPTS% %JAVA_OPTS% %SDKMANAGER_OPTS%
Add --add-modules java.xml.bind

The modified line should look like this:

%JAVA_EXE%" %DEFAULT_JVM_OPTS% --add-modules java.xml.bind %JAVA_OPTS% %SDKMANAGER_OPTS%

Solution 7 - Java

I just add "Android SDK Command-line Tools (latest)" and this solved my issue.

Originally from here: https://github.com/flutter/flutter/issues/56778#issuecomment-742639036

Solution 8 - Java

As we read in the previous comments this error is occurring because the current SDK version is incompatible with the newest Java versions: 9 and 10.

So, to solve it, you can downgrade your java version to Java 8, or as a workaround, you can export the following option on your terminal:

Linux:

export JAVA_OPTS='-XX:+IgnoreUnrecognizedVMOptions --add-modules java.se.ee'

Windows:

set JAVA_OPTS=-XX:+IgnoreUnrecognizedVMOptions --add-modules java.se.ee'

If this does not work try to exports the java.xml.bind instead.

Linux:

export JAVA_OPTS='-XX:+IgnoreUnrecognizedVMOptions --add-modules java.xml.bind'

Windows:

set JAVA_OPTS=-XX:+IgnoreUnrecognizedVMOptions --add-modules java.xml.bind'

This will solve this error for the sdkmanager

And to make it saved permanently you can export the JAVA_OPTS in your profile file on Linux (.zshrc, .bashrc and etc.) or add it as an environment variable permanently on Windows.

ps. This doesn't work for Java 11/11+, which doesn't have Java EE modules. For this option is a good idea, downgrade your Java version or wait for a Flutter update.

Ref: JDK 11: End of the road for Java EE modules

Solution 9 - Java

As some people have mentioned before, this very well could be a simpler problem having to do with one java installation taking precedence over the other.

In my case it was java 8 being overshadowed by a default newer java.

I installed java 8:

sudo apt-get install openjdk-8-jdk

Then I updated the installed java to be the new default:

sudo update-alternatives --config java

Whereby I selected java 8's id number.

After doing these (pretty simple) steps, I could just run sdkmanager without error.

Hope this helps someone!

Solution 10 - Java

Install the Command-line Tools in the SDK Manager via Android Studio.

Then run the version of SDK Manager from the cmdline-tools directory, as opposed to the tools directory.

$ANDROID_HOME/cmdline-tools/latest/bin/sdkmanager --version # GOOD!
$ANDROID_HOME/tools/bin/sdkmanager                --version # BAD! (java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError)

Solution 11 - Java

The Android Tools are still incompatible with JDK 9 or 10. You need to install JDK 8 or, if you need multiple Java versions make sure that the system-wide Java home points to a JDK 8.

I was able to solve the issue by using an edited sdkmanager.bat file by forcing to use the Java embedded inside the Android Studio Itself, which i presume uses the OpenJDK 8. Here is the edited sdkmanager I Used :

Here i used an environmental variable ANDROID_STUDIO_JAVA_HOME which actually points to the JRE embedded in the android studio eg: ../android_studio/jre

This also has a fallback to JAVA_HOME if ANDROID_STUDIO_JAVA_HOME is not set.

Solution 14 - Java

Short addition to the above for openJDK 11 with android sdk tools before upgrading to the latest version.

The above solutions didn't work for me

set DEFAULT_JVM_OPTS="-Dcom.android.sdklib.toolsdir=%~dp0\.."

To get this working I have installed the jaxb-ri (reference implementation) from the maven repo.

The information was given https://github.com/javaee/jaxb-v2 and links to the https://repo1.maven.org/maven2/com/sun/xml/bind/jaxb-ri/2.3.2/jaxb-ri-2.3.2.zip
This download includes a standalone runtime implementation in the mod-Folder.

I copied the mod-Folder to $android_sdk\tools\lib\ and added the following to classpath variable:

;%APP_HOME%\lib\mod\jakarta.xml.bind-api.jar;%APP_HOME%\lib\mod\jakarta.activation-api.jar;%APP_HOME%\lib\mod\jaxb-runtime.jar;%APP_HOME%\lib\mod\istack-commons-runtime.jar;

So finally it looks like:

set CLASSPATH=%APP_HOME%\lib\dvlib-26.0.0-dev.jar;%APP_HOME%\lib\jimfs-1.1.jar;%APP_HOME%\lib\jsr305-1.3.9.jar;%APP_HOME%\lib\repository-26.0.0-dev.jar;%APP_HOME%\lib\j2objc-annotations-1.1.jar;%APP_HOME%\lib\layoutlib-api-26.0.0-dev.jar;%APP_HOME%\lib\gson-2.3.jar;%APP_HOME%\lib\httpcore-4.2.5.jar;%APP_HOME%\lib\commons-logging-1.1.1.jar;%APP_HOME%\lib\commons-compress-1.12.jar;%APP_HOME%\lib\annotations-26.0.0-dev.jar;%APP_HOME%\lib\error_prone_annotations-2.0.18.jar;%APP_HOME%\lib\animal-sniffer-annotations-1.14.jar;%APP_HOME%\lib\httpclient-4.2.6.jar;%APP_HOME%\lib\commons-codec-1.6.jar;%APP_HOME%\lib\common-26.0.0-dev.jar;%APP_HOME%\lib\kxml2-2.3.0.jar;%APP_HOME%\lib\httpmime-4.1.jar;%APP_HOME%\lib\annotations-12.0.jar;%APP_HOME%\lib\sdklib-26.0.0-dev.jar;%APP_HOME%\lib\guava-22.0.jar;%APP_HOME%\lib\mod\jakarta.xml.bind-api.jar;%APP_HOME%\lib\mod\jakarta.activation-api.jar;%APP_HOME%\lib\mod\jaxb-runtime.jar;%APP_HOME%\lib\mod\istack-commons-runtime.jar;

Maybe I missed a lib due to some minor errors showing up. But sdkmanager.bat --update or --list is running now.

This is what I did in Ubuntu 18.04 (Any Linux will do):

$ export JAVA_HOME=$(/usr/lib/jvm/java-1.8.0-openjdk-amd64)

Solution 16 - Java

This is the answer to make this work for Java 11 and above since the entire JAXB APIs were removed.

Download Jakarta XML Binding, specifically this zip file. You need only the 3 files within mod folder i.e. jakarta.activation.jar, jakarta.xml.bind-api.jar and jakarta.xml.bind-api.jar and you can toss the rest off.

Move these files to APP_HOME/lib folder. I created a sub folder jaxb inside for this. So, on my macOS system this was: $HOME/Library/Android/sdk/tools/lib/jaxb

Now open sdkmanager using your favorite text editor and under CLASSPATH= add the following at th beginning:

$APP_HOME/lib/jaxb/jakarta.activation.jar:$APP_HOME/lib/jaxb/jakarta.xml.bind-api.jar:$APP_HOME/lib/jaxb/jaxb-impl.jar

So it ended up looking like:

CLASSPATH=$APP_HOME/lib/jaxb/jakarta.activation.jar:$APP_HOME/lib/jaxb/jakarta.xml.bind-api.jar:$APP_HOME/lib/jaxb/jaxb-impl.jar:$APP_HOME/lib/dvlib-26.0.0-dev.jar:$APP_HOME/lib/jimfs-1.1.jar:$APP_HOME/lib/jsr305-1.3.9.jar:$APP_HOME/lib/repository-26.0.0-dev.jar:$APP_HOME/lib/j2objc-annotations-1.1.jar:$APP_HOME/lib/layoutlib-api-26.0.0-dev.jar:$APP_HOME/lib/gson-2.3.jar:$APP_HOME/lib/httpcore-4.2.5.jar:$APP_HOME/lib/commons-logging-1.1.1.jar:$APP_HOME/lib/commons-compress-1.12.jar:$APP_HOME/lib/annotations-26.0.0-dev.jar:$APP_HOME/lib/error_prone_annotations-2.0.18.jar:$APP_HOME/lib/animal-sniffer-annotations-1.14.jar:$APP_HOME/lib/httpclient-4.2.6.jar:$APP_HOME/lib/commons-codec-1.6.jar:$APP_HOME/lib/common-26.0.0-dev.jar:$APP_HOME/lib/kxml2-2.3.0.jar:$APP_HOME/lib/httpmime-4.1.jar:$APP_HOME/lib/annotations-12.0.jar:$APP_HOME/lib/sdklib-26.0.0-dev.jar:$APP_HOME/lib/guava-22.0.jar

And that's pretty much it, should solve the issue.

I did these steps because flutter doctor --android-licenses was giving me issues. And this fixed it.

Solution 17 - Java

(WINDOWS)

If you have installed Android Studio already go to File >> Project Structure... >> SDK Location.

Go to that location + \cmdline-tools\latest\bin Copy the Path into Environment Variables

than it is OK to use the command line tool.

Solution 18 - Java

The only working solution for me is to use the java shipped with the Android studio.

set the JAVA_HOME to /Applications/Android\ Studio.app/Contents/jre/jdk/Contents/Home

in .bashrc

set JAVA_HOME="/Applications/Android\ Studio.app/Contents/jre/jdk/Contents/Home"

If you are using fish shel, put this in ~/.config/fish/config.fish

set -gx JAVA_HOME /Applications/Android\ Studio.app/Contents/jre/jdk/Contents/Home

(This is for mac, but I am sure it should work with linux and windows by setting the correct path)

Solution 19 - Java

Apparently if you use "commandlinetools" version greater than 3.6.0 you may use JDK11+ to install Android SDK components.

They are available here: https://developer.android.com/studio#command-tools

Official issue tracker saying it is fixed: https://issuetracker.google.com/issues/122210344#comment11

Solution 20 - Java

As explained above by Saifur Rahman Mohsin, the problem is that sdmanager relies on the availability of J2EE functionality which no longer ships with JRE/JDK >= 11, so this can be worked around by using the JAXB classes which implement the same functionality.

However, you may prefer not (or not be able to) modify the sdkmanager script (e.g. because it is installed by some other process that you do not control). If you are running a Posix/Unix system (like GNU/Linux or BSD, maybe macOS) you may still have a chance.

At least with the sdkmanager shipped with sdk-tools-linux-4333796.zip (maybe also with later versions), if you set $JAVA_HOME, it tries to look for $JAVA_HOME/jre/sh/java for IBM's AIX SDK compatibility. So you can exploit that compatibility check to trick sdkmanager into using a wrapper script that inserts the necessary classes into the class path when calling the real java program.

For example, in Debian with OpenJDK 11 already installed (package openjdk-11-jre or openjdk-11-jdk) you can do this (as root):

# cd /usr/lib/jvm/java-11-openjdk-amd64  # use your Java home here
# mkdir -p jre/sh
# cd jre/sh
# touch java
# chmod a+rx java

Then edit the just-created java script and write this Bash code into it:

#!/bin/bash
cp="$JAVA_EXTRA_CLASSPATH" java="$JAVA_HOME/bin/java"
test "$cp" || exec "$java" "$@"

args=()
for arg in "$@"; do
    if [[ "$setcp" ]]; then
        cp="$arg:$cp" setcp=
    elif [[ "$arg" =~ ^-(cp|-?classpath)$ ]]; then
        setcp=y
    else
        args+=("$arg")
    fi
done
exec "$java" -cp "$cp" "${args[@]}"

To make sdkmanager use the wrapper script and inject the JAXB classes into the class path, first install the relevant JAXB package in your system (libjaxb-java in Debian), and use sdmanager like this:

$ export JAVA_HOME="/usr/lib/jvm/java-11-openjdk-amd64"  # for Debian's OpenJDK 11
$ export JAVA_EXTRA_CLASSPATH="/usr/share/java/jaxb-impl.jar"  # for Debian's `libjaxb-java` package
$ (now run sdkmanager or other processes running it as usual)

Please note that $JAVA_EXTRA_CLASSPATH has classpath syntax, so you can enter a colon-separated list of items.

I noticed that this trick also applies to the Gradle wrapper and maybe others, but they may be safe if $JAVA_EXTRA_CLASSPATH is not set.

Solution 21 - Java

https://adoptopenjdk.net currently supports all distributions of JDK from version 8 onwards. For example https://adoptopenjdk.net/releases.html#x64_win

Here's an example of how I was able to use JDK version 8 with sdkmanager and much more: https://travis-ci.com/mmcc007/screenshots/builds/109365628

For JDK 9 (and I think 10, and possibly 11, but not 12 and beyond), the following should work to get sdkmanager working:

export SDKMANAGER_OPTS="--add-modules java.se.ee"
sdkmanager --list

JDK 13.0.1, Android SDK 29 , Windows 10

Basically i tried everything, but the most effective and only 1 solution that worked for me was to downgrade to jdk 1.8. I dont why, it is early 2020 and have to downgrade to 1 year old jdk version against latest flutter version. Maybe problem is in windows version, cause jdk 13.0.1 worked for me on macOS 10.15.2. Hope this solution works.

Download Link (JDK 1.8.0): https://www.oracle.com/technetwork/java/javase/downloads/jdk8-downloads-2133151.html

Solution 23 - Java

You just need to install jaxb har files and include in the classpath. this works in java 11 to 12 latest.

To those who are looking for the fix i made some gist in github hope this help. and the links are provided also.

Solution 24 - Java

Define home directories of different JDK versions in your .bashrc or .zshrc:

export JAVA_8_HOME=$(/usr/libexec/java_home -v1.8)
export JAVA_14_HOME=$(/usr/libexec/java_home -v14)

First of all use JDK version 8. Put this line the top of sdkmanager file:

export JAVA_HOME=$JAVA_8_HOME

Switch back to JDK version 14. Put this line the bottom of sdkmanager file:

export JAVA_HOME=$JAVA_14_HOME

Solution 25 - Java

If you are using flutter, Run this command flutter doctor --android-licenses

Solution 26 - Java

For users on mac, I solved an issue similar to this by modifying my zshrc file and adding the following (although your java_home might be configured differently) :

export JAVA_HOME=$(/usr/libexec/java_home)
export ANDROID_HOME=/Users/YOURUSER/Library/Android/sdk
export PATH=$PATH:/Users/YOURUSER/Library/Android/sdk/tools
export PATH=$PATH:%ANDROID_HOME%\tools
export PATH=$PATH:/Users/YOURUSER/Library/Android/sdk

Solution 27 - Java

I have a M1 chipset and the only solution was to install the JDK 8 from azul zuru and then change my JAVA_HOME to 1.8 and works!

Solution 28 - Java

Another solution possible to this error is check your Java version, maybe you can solve it downloading this jdk oracle-jdk-8, this was my mistake :P
