Description maxnitribitt 2017-06-06 16:01:49 UTC
I'm trying to install netbeans-trunk-nightly-201706060001-javaee-windows on my  Windows 10 machine. It doesn't work, because the installer doesn't seem to find the JDK. The message is "Java SE Development Kit (JDK) was not found on this computer"

I have installed jdk-9-ea+172_windows-x64_bin

>java -version
java version "9-ea"
Java(TM) SE Runtime Environment (build 9-ea+172)
Java HotSpot(TM) 64-Bit Server VM (build 9-ea+172, mixed mode)
