CFlint in Visual Studio Code: There was a problem with CFLint. spawn java.exe ENOENT

Question

I'm trying to run CFLint in VSCode on Windows 10, but keep getting the following error:

There was a problem with CFLint. spawn java.exe ENOENT

What I tried so far:

• Set the "JAVA_HOME" environment variable to the sdk Folder of my Lucee installation (it's the only installed jdk on this machine)
• Added %JAVA_HOME%\bin to my "PATH" variable

I did this for system and user variables in all combinations (only user, only system, both)

Tried the cflint.javaPath property in VSCode's settings.json (with and without /bin)

So far nothing helped. The environment variables seem to work fine, if I run javac -version from the command line, the version number is displayed (1.8.0_172).

Could this be a problem with Lucee's/Tomcat's jdk? Or maybe a Windows 10-Issue?

Answer 1

Have you tried to provide the path to the executable file - not only the path to the JAVA installation like

 "cflint.javaPath": "D:\\JAVA\\jdk11.0.6_10\\bin\\java.exe"
