Appium: error: Failed to start an Appium session, err was: Error: 'java -version' failed

Question

I have written below code in @Test method:

File app = new File("E:\\AppiumWorkspace\\apk\\redBus.apk");
   DesiredCapabilities capabilities = new DesiredCapabilities();
        // capabilities.setCapability(CapabilityType.BROWSER_NAME, "");
         capabilities.setCapability(MobileCapabilityType.DEVICE_NAME,"XOLO Q1010");
         capabilities.setCapability(MobileCapabilityType.PLATFORM_VERSION, "4.2.2");
         capabilities.setCapability(MobileCapabilityType.PLATFORM_NAME,"Android");
     capabilities.setCapability(MobileCapabilityType.APP, app.getAbsolutePath());

       capabilities.setCapability(MobileCapabilityType.APP_PACKAGE, "in.redbus.android");
        capabilities.setCapability(MobileCapabilityType.APP_ACTIVITY, "in.redbus.android.activity.SplashScreen");


        dr = new AndroidDriver<MobileElement> (new URL("http://127.0.0.1:4723/wd/hub"), capabilities);

        dr.manage().timeouts().implicitlyWait(5, TimeUnit.SECONDS);

On Running code from eclipse I am getting below error on eclipse:

I re-installed java nut it did not helped. I received same error.

On Eclipse I am having below error:

FAILED: testApp
org.openqa.selenium.SessionNotCreatedException: A new session could not be created. (Original error: 'java -version' failed. Error: Command failed: C:\Windows\system32\cmd.exe /s /c "java -version"
'java' is not recognized as an internal or external command,
operable program or batch file.
) (WARNING: The server did not provide any stacktrace information)
Command duration or timeout: 503 milliseconds

I have verified ANDROID_HOME and JAVA_HOME path and those are pointing to correct locations. I ran adb devices command on cmd and it gives me correct output.

Can anyone please help me sorting out this problem.

Following is the content of PATH:

    C:\Program Files (x86)\Intel\iCLS Client\;

Answer 1

您是否已将bin路径添加到路径环境变量中？

Answer 2

1. Could you try java -version from the cmd at any directory location once and match the result with the java version that Eclipse is using for the project to build in Project Settings.
2. Session is not created because your project requires a java version which is not available on your system as of now.

Answer 3

I hope some of the system inbuilt library paths are missing. Please add them and try it out. For Ex: It should be having system specified default paths. i hope some path might got deleted. Please add it and try. For EX: PATH=C:\\Windows\\system32;C:\\Windows;C:\\Windows\\System32\\Wbem;C:\\Windows\\System32\\WindowsPowerShell\\v 1.0\\;C:\\Program Files\\Windows Live\\Shared
