[vscode devcontainer]A fatal error has been detected by the Java Runtime Environment

[zanqi]

Please provide a brief summary of the bug

I use vscode devcontainer on a java project. Got the following error for the past month and couldn't get IntelliSense for java. Log file attached.
hs_err_pid939.log

Did you test with the latest update version?

• Yes

Please provide steps to reproduce where possible

0. install docker desktop
1. clone the repo: https://github.com/zanqi/compiler
2. open it in vscode
3. vscode should popup a prompt on bottom right to open It in devcontainer. Click blue button to do so
4. after things settled (no more in progress UI on the screen), open a java file
5. "java: initialize workspace" in the bottom bar appears, but never finished. Click on it will see the error I am reporting.

Might be related to #1094 as well.

@zanqi It looks like that you have both Java 21.0.3 installed and 17.0.11. Is it the case that VS Code starts with 21 but you are targeting 17 for that project?

[zanqi]

@karianna I don't have jdk 17 installed, but the redhat java extension for vscode comes with an embedded JDK 17.

[akaroml]

@testforstephen could you help take a look?

[akaroml]

@karianna I don't have jdk 17 installed, but the redhat java extension for vscode comes with an embedded JDK 17.

Just to clarify that the embedded JDK is for the language service internal use only. User still needs to install the JDK corresponding to their project needs.

[testforstephen]

Hey @zanqi, I followed your reproducing steps and Java extension is started well using the embedded JRE 17. See the screenshot below.

The embedded JRE of Java extension is from JustJ (which is based on Temurin), I'm not familiar with the specific JDK errors. Can you try to change the user setting "java.jdt.ls.java.home": "/usr/local/sdkman/candidates/java/21.0.3-tem"? This will force the Java extension to use your specified JDK to start the Java tooling.

[zanqi]

Hi, @testforstephen, the setting key "java.jdt.ls.java.home" is not recognized by vscode. One difference between our setup is I am using vscode on a mac.

[testforstephen]

F1 -> Preferences: Open User Settings

Yes, I run docker on Windows 11. Can you share specific info for your macOS machine?

[zanqi]

Thanks for the instruction. I changed the Remote settings accordingly. Unfortunately, the problem still appears. Only this time, the error is reported by JDK 21

My mac info:
Chip: Apple M3 Pro
OS: macOS Sonama Version 14.5

I noticed that your image is for AMD64 (x64), but your machine uses Apple Silicon. Was this intentional? Have you tried using the ARM64 image?

[zanqi]

Yes, some of the packages I need are compiled for i386. It only works on AMD64 but not ARM64.

I tried switching the image to ARM64. The Java language server indeed works.

[testforstephen]

So this is a platform compatibility issue. let's narrow it down a bit. Can you manually run Java command on the devcontainer? for example, javac Hello.java and java Hello. I want to confirm if the problem is with the JDK itself or with the Java extension.

[zanqi]

javac and java commands work fine. Only the Java extension is having trouble.

[testforstephen]

Did it work before?
Yes, used to work a month ago

@zanqi Do you know from which version of vscode-java the issue starts occurring?

@rgrunber The user is running dev container with Ubuntu x64 image on Apple M3 Pro (arm64), and Java extension fails to start. Any thoughts on this issue?

Edited: Used to work a month ago, so the issue likely started with vscode-java version 1.31.0.

[zanqi]

I don't know the last working version.

[karianna]

@zanqi Can you try again with the latest VS Code and Arm based JDK?
