soprano @2.9.4: Error: soprano requires the Java for Mac OS X development headers.

[milomak]

when i try to install soprano, the following error presents itself:

$ sudo port install soprano
--->  Computing dependencies for soprano
--->  Configuring soprano
Error: soprano requires the Java for Mac OS X development headers.
Error: Make sure your Xcode installation is complete.
Error: Failed to configure soprano: missing Java headers
Error: See /opt/local/var/macports/logs/_opt_local_var_macports_sources_rsync.macports.org_release_tarballs_ports_devel_soprano/soprano/main.log for details.
Error: Follow https://guide.macports.org/#project.tickets to report a bug.
Error: Processing of port soprano failed

Java is installed:

java --version
java 11 2018-09-25
Java(TM) SE Runtime Environment 18.9 (build 11+28)
Java HotSpot(TM) 64-Bit Server VM 18.9 (build 11+28, mixed mode)

i've used installed the latest oracle jdk as well. xcode-select --install was run after the update to mojave

It looks like you only have the Java JRE installed. You need to install the JDK.

[milomak]

I have reinstalled java. and as you can see from the below it is the jdk that is running. ​oracle jdk11 dmg to be specific

$ java --version
java 11 2018-09-25
Java(TM) SE Runtime Environment 18.9 (build 11+28)
Java HotSpot(TM) 64-Bit Server VM 18.9 (build 11+28, mixed mode)

$ sudo /usr/libexec/java_home -V
Matching Java Virtual Machines (1):
    11, x86_64:	"Java SE 11"	/Library/Java/JavaVirtualMachines/jdk-11.jdk/Contents/Home

and the error still persists:

$ sudo port install soprano -x11
--->  Computing dependencies for soprano
--->  Configuring soprano
Error: soprano requires the Java for Mac OS X development headers.
Error: Make sure your Xcode installation is complete.
Error: Failed to configure soprano: missing Java headers

Error: Processing of port soprano failed

interestingly the java icon in system preferences has gone with this new install. which would lead me to believe jdk is running and not jre

[stanimura]

The same error even with Java. Installing Java is not solution. The version of Java is the following:

$ sudo /usr/libexec/java_home -V
Matching Java Virtual Machines (2):
    11, x86_64:	"OpenJDK 11"	/Library/Java/JavaVirtualMachines/jdk-11.jdk/Contents/Home
    1.8.0_121, x86_64:	"Java SE 8"	/Library/Java/JavaVirtualMachines/jdk1.8.0_121.jdk/Contents/Home

/Library/Java/JavaVirtualMachines/jdk-11.jdk/Contents/Home

The classical solution is to make symbolic link on /System/Library/Frameworks/JavaVM.framework/Headers, but it is not possbile on Mojave because of rootless system.

However, soparno is succeded to build on Mojave simply after comment out pre-configure in Portfile.

# pre-configure {
#    if {![file isfile "/System/Library/Frameworks/JavaVM.framework/Headers/jni.h"]} {
#        ui_error "${name} requires the Java for Mac OS X development headers."
#        if {${os.major} == 11} {
#            ui_error "Download the Java Developer Package from: <http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1421>"
#        } elseif {${os.major} == 10} {
#            ui_error "Download the Java Developer Package from: <https://connect.apple.com/cgi-bin/WebObjects/MemberSite.woa/wa/getSoftware?bundleID=20719>"
#        } elseif {${os.major} == 9} {
#            ui_error "Download the Java Developer Package from: <https://connect.apple.com/cgi-bin/WebObjects/MemberSite.woa/wa/getSoftware?bundleID=20720>"
#        } else {
#            ui_error "Make sure your Xcode installation is complete."
#        }
#        return -code error "missing Java headers"
#    }
# }

where is the file located? @stanimura

edit - found it

/opt/local/var/macports/sources/rsync.macports.org/release/tarballs/ports/devel/soprano/Portfile

[stanimura]

Hi, milomak, Instead of editing Porfile directly, you can do

$ sudo port edit soprano

[milomak]

thanks. i see it seems to use vim.

can i change it to nano?

[stanimura]

man port

and search "edit", then you can find an example to use nano.

[milomak]

added the following to ~/.bash_profile

export EDITOR=nano

then ran

source ~/.bash_profile 

[rlhamil]

This worked for me: change the line in pre-configure that looks like

     if {![file isfile "/System/Library/Frameworks/JavaVM.framework/Headers/jni.h"]} {

to

     if {![file isfile "/System/Library/Frameworks/JavaVM.framework/Headers/jni.h"] && ![file isfile "/Library/Developer/CommandLineTools/SDKs/MacOSX.sdk/System/Library/Frameworks/JavaVM.framework/Versions/A/Headers/jni.h"]} {

(be sure to get all of the 2nd line). This would allow the file to be found in either location (the latter being where it is on Mojave).

rlhamil's fix works for Mojave; how do we get it merged?

Replying to mf2k:

Submit a pull request

OR provide a patch? PRs can be a big hurdle for potentially new contributors.

Anyway, I created a PR: ​https://github.com/macports/macports-ports/pull/2946

[ryandesign (Ryan Carsten Schmidt)]

This is still a problem, even ​on the buildbot workers.

Replying to ryandesign:

This is still a problem

The pull request I submitted fixes it. It just needs to be merged.
