  1. Please locate your Java SDK 1.8 bin folder

2a. If you are on Windows, you will need to make sure your environment variables are setup correctly.
Add JAVA_HOME → location of your JAVA SDK 1.8 bin folder

2b. If you are on a Mac:
Enter the following command into your terminal:
export JAVA_HOME="location of your JAVA SDK 1.8 bin folder">>~/.bash_profile

We are facing the same issue. We use trapeze.dev which modifies the code before the build. Our local builds work, but the JAVA_HOME env variable is not set inside the Appflow environment and build in AppFlow cloud fails. Does anybody know how to set the variable properly in the AppFlow? We need to be sure that the same variable value will work on both iOS and Android agents and that it will work without our manual change when Ionic updates the AppFlow infrastructure to newer versions.

I am also encountering a related error. Did you ever find the path to Java 11 on Appflow? I need to find this so I can set it as my JAVA_HOME

You need to set the JAVA_HOME environment variable. To do it in Windows:

  1. From the Run dialog (WIN + R), launch sysdm.cpl.
  2. Advanced => Environment Variables
  3. Define a new variable of JAVA_HOME, with the value pointing to your Android Studio Java directory, e.g. C:\Program Files\Android\Android Studio\jbr for the latest Lady Bug installation
