[JVM11] Trouble with initial install

MacOs X El Capitan ver 10.11.6
I get the following error when running start.sh

Error installing bundle listed in startup.properties with url: mvn:org.apache.karaf.features/org.apache.karaf.features.extension/4.1.5 and startlevel: 1

Java version:
openjdk version “11.0.1” 2018-10-16 LTS
OpenJDK Runtime Environment Zulu11.2+3 (build 11.0.1+13-LTS)
OpenJDK 64-Bit Server VM Zulu11.2+3 (build 11.0.1+13-LTS, mixed mode)

downgrade to a JVM 8 plz
JVM 11 support is coming but it’s not here yet

Thank for the help. I am new to mac thus not always sure I do the right thing.

I tried was you suggested and this is the result:

gerard-MBP-3:openhab gerardsch$ java -version
java version “1.8.0_191”
Java™ SE Runtime Environment (build 1.8.0_191-b12)
Java HotSpot™ 64-Bit Server VM (build 25.191-b12, mixed mode)

gerard-MBP-3:openhab gerardsch$ ./start.sh
Launching the openHAB runtime…
Error installing bundle listed in startup.properties with url: mvn:org.apache.karaf.features/org.apache.karaf.features.extension/4.1.5 and startlevel: 1

Is there more changes required?

check folder permissions
the OH2 process runs as user openhab and it may not be able to access all files and folders

I am not familiar with Mac… I may be wrong about the permissions …

did you follow the instructions here:

  1. https://www.openhab.org/download/
  2. https://www.openhab.org/docs/installation/macos.html

Thanks for the effort. Hope someone with mac knowledge will help. I would really like to use this laptop for openhab.

Lets hope!

Do you think someone else might help me or must I post in a different section?

There will be others to help, I am sure :slight_smile:
This is the right category to ask this type of questions.

Can you try to use the latest Milestone to see if things improve: [OH 2.4.0 M6] Testing Results

remove the existing OH2.3.0 Stable installation, download 2.4.0.M6 and try to start it up

That worked
Thanks

M7 is out now :slight_smile:
