Java error while installing picard using gradlew
See original GitHub issueDear all, I am trying to install picard in my Ubuntu 16.04 Virtual Machine. I cloned the repo and then I used gradlew to install the package. But it failed because of a java error:
stefania@stefania-VirtualBox:~/picard$ ./gradlew shadowJar

* Where:
Build file '/home/stefania/picard/build.gradle' line: 56

I googled the error but I didn’t find anything useful. Can you please help me in solving the issue?
Thanks in advance!

Great! It works now!! I downgraded to java 8:
Then I re-run the command and the now I have BUILD SUCCESSFUL 😃
Many many thanks!!!
Oh, it sounds like maybe you’re trying to build picard (from the github repo ?) rather than just install it ? If so, you need to install a JDK, not just a Java runtime. Are you running a gradle command ? If you post the actual command line you’re running, and the error output from the command line, we could probably help get you back on the right path.
