Configuring Java version in LCM Client

If you are using Java 7 and you encounter a Java compiler error, you must check your Java configuration in LCM Client and use JDK 8 version.

Java compiler errors include these examples:
  • Received fatal alert: handshake_failure: error, check that you are running a JDK.
  • Unable to get the system Java compiler, check that you are running a JDK.
Note: These steps are not directly related to MEC. They are applicable to all apps in Grid.
