Exactly, I mistyped in my last message and meant 21 of course as that is what the table says.

Hello Bjorn,

I downgraded to JVM 21.0.5 but trying to compile it reports me this :

JDK - Required to compile Java code
   - Version found: 21.0.5
   - Version supported: >= 17 <= 20

and running gradlew -version inside project’s directory, it says:

------------------------------------------------------------
Gradle 8.7
------------------------------------------------------------

Build time:   2024-03-22 15:52:46 UTC
Revision:     650af14d7653aa949fce5e886e685efc9cf97c10

Kotlin:      1.9.22
Groovy:    3.0.17
Ant:          Apache Ant(TM) version 1.10.13 compiled on January 4 2023
JVM:        21.0.5 (Eclipse Adoptium Temurin-21.0.5+11)
OS:           Windows 10 10.0 amd64

so possibilities are two:

  1. Compatibility Matrix <— those tables aren’t updated correctly
  2. I have to change something somwhere…

I’d add as information: previously on installing OpenJDK 21, I used OpenJDK 17 and it compiled but in IntelliJ inside Kotlin’s code in the local library where I put a breakpoint the debugger didn’t stopped at the breakpoint so since it compiled and run the application correctly I thought maybe it was about JVM version which someway wouldn’t let me to debug inside breakpoint… that’s why I tried to install OpenJDK 21…

Any suggests?

Thanks in advance!
Cheers!

It’s Björn or Bjoern, not Bjorn. :wink:

It is 2. The compatibility matrix is correct. It is not Gradle that is yelling at you.
The matrix tells you since which Gradle version you can use a given Java version as JDK toolchain and since which Gradle version you can use a given Java version to run Gradle itself.
But that error message I have never seen before is not coming from Gradle.
So some plugin you are using restricts the possible versions further, because Gradle-wise 8-21 would be acceptable but something else you use restricts it to 17-20.
So either upgrade that something to a version that supports 21 or further downgrade your Java verison.

Practically I better shall back to OpenJDK 21 and try a npm UPGRADE so node_modules would be upgraded to versions supported by OpenJDK 21 I suppose… right ?

I have no idea where your error message is coming from, so :man_shrugging:
