RAD studio 10.3.3 could not create java virtual machine

Question

I already checked the issue but i didn't found a solution.

I use RAD STUDIO 10.3.3 in Win 10/64b and i have installed java 1.8_171/32b

I try to create a new (sample) android application 32b and it builds ok.

When i try to run it raises the error could not create java virtual machine followed by [Exec Error] EXEC(1): A fatal exception has occurred. Program will exit.

and

[Exec Error] The command ""C:\Program Files (x86)\Java\jdk1.8.0_171\bin\java.exe" -genkey -v -keystore "C:\Users\DELL\AppData\Roaming\Embarcadero\BDS\20.0\debug.keystore" -storepass android -alias androiddebugkey -keypass android -dname "cn=Unnamed, ou=Mobile Organization, o=Embarcadero Technologies, l=San Francisco, s=California, c=US" -keyalg RSA -keysize 2048 -validity 10000" exited with code 1.

As i can see java.exe does not support parameter -keypass and all the others following it. Is this meaning something ? Please help me to solve this problem

Answer 1

Ok, I found my mistake.

In tools/options/deployment/SDKmanager/Java/keytool location I had the (wrong value) java.exe instead of keytool.exe

Many thanks for your help

"Is this meaning something?"

Those arguments are for the keytool command not the java command.

See the Keytool manual page.

If your sample Android app is actually trying to run keytool, it is doing it the wrong way. However, I don't think we can help beyond that unless you share the code with us so that we can understand what it is trying to do.
