STM32CubeMX 6.5.0 - "Please install Java JRE 11.0.10 or a more recent version"

[#1]

Has anyone had problems installing on Linux?

UM1718 User manual

3.2 Installing/uninstalling STM32CubeMX standalone version

On Linux:

a) On STM32CubeMX-Lin line, Click “Get software�? to download the package

b) Extract (unzip) the downloaded package.

c) Make sure you have administrator rights to access the target installation directory. You can run the installation as root (or sudo) to install STM32CubeMX in shared directories.

d) Do chmod 777 SetupSTM32CubeMX-VERSION to change the properties, so that the file is executable.

e) Double-click on the SetupSTM32CubeMX-VERSION file, or launch it from the console window.

Am I missing any details? The SetupSTM32CubeMX just says "Please install Java JRE 11.0.10 or a more recent version"

$ sudo ./SetupSTM32CubeMX-6.5.0 

Check exe path on linux

FullExe path1 is: /home/user/SetupSTM32CubeMX-6.5.0

Exe path is: /home/user

hi i have got the same error on fedora.

SOLVED

From the documentation:

Starting with version V6.2.0, STM32CubeMX embeds the Java Runtime Environment

(JRE™(a)) required for its execution and no longer uses the one installed on the user

machine.

And yes the installation package contains JRE, but the the files are not executable.

To make the files executable issue the command in the directory where you have extracted the installation package:

sudo chmod 755 jre/bin/*

Now you can run the setup file.

Hi - something else that caused this error for me was the directory name. The directory name I extracted the file to was en.ST-MCU-FinderLin_v5-0-0. When I renamed it to something else like mcu_finder the installer ran OK. It may be struggling with the full stop in the dir name?

Yes you are right. Thanks for the solutions.
