i have a vanilla 1.16.5 server here for example And this should work right we can double click on server.jar and it’s going to open up it’s going to work like there are no problems this is new for 1.17 servers right the reason for this is because java switched from java 8 to java you know basically the most Recent version of java now java 8 will still work to run minecraft but the back end is not going to work anymore you’re going to need java 16 which i’m going to show you how to get here first though let me go ahead and do a Real quick jump cut and i need to stop this server there we go that server is now stopped as you can see it worked on our 1716 server but on the 117 server double click on server.jar it’s not working we do have the ela.txt file on there says java exception has occurred How do we fix this issue well it’s honestly pretty simple right i ran into this while i was doing my minecraft server tutorial and this tutorial right here is outdated i’m going to make a new tutorial that goes right there it’s going to be uploaded a little later but i want to Get this one out pretty soon because i figured a lot of you would be having issues with this right so nevertheless here as you can see this is our java tutorial and it’s all been updated it’s now all changed from what it was before to how to get the correct version of Java for servers and mods so when you come here click on this yellow download link and when you click on that link it’s going to take you here which is a new download page for the java sc development kit 16 which is what you need to run not only Minecraft servers but i’m guessing minecraft mods moving forward i’ve seen forge and they are going to be upgrading as well so it’s something we need to look at so never let us come over here to the right hand side we want to find the windows x64 installer click on the a little download Link to the right of that it’s not going to come up and say i accept the you know do you accept these terms of service we do and click download is then going to go ahead and start downloading down here in the bottom left of google chrome now you Shouldn’t need to keep this file oracle is a very trusted developer but you might need to save it on mozilla firefox because i believe they make you save everything but on google chrome it’s probably just going to download if you do need to keep it it’s 100 safe oracle Are the developers of java 100 aboveboard there now we go ahead and minimize our browser if we go ahead and refresh my desktop we will see here is the jdk right there it is if this isn’t on your desktop it’s going to be in your downloads folder which you Can find by clicking the little windows icons in the top left of my screen probably in the bottom left of your screen go ahead and watch on the top bottom of your screen type in downloads you got a downloads file folder here and then you will find The jdk in this file folder i’m going to drag to our desktop though because that’s just easier now here’s the deal let’s go ahead and uh let’s go ahead and try this one more time we’re going to try just to show you that this is what’s going to fix this so If we double click on server.jar we get this error you know it plays the air noise and a jni error has occurred please check your installation and try again from the java virtual machine launcher and then we do get another error there that a java exception has occurred right So nonetheless let’s go ahead now and double click on the jdk we downloaded right just double click on this right here and this is the java development kit so it’s going to go ahead kind of load up an installer here might take it a second but that’s okay Basically it’s just going through and loading up an installer preparing to install and then it’s going to open up this now as you can see it’s a really easy widget you just click next and then click next again and then it’s going to install java sc development kit now it might ask Me some weird stuff because i have already fixed this and then undid what i did in order to do this tutorial for you all that’s what we go through here that’s okay but nonetheless as you can see it’s copying new files getting everything set up and then it’s going to eventually finish And when it does it’s instant it’s instantaneous you may have to reset your computer but i did not so we can go ahead and click close here and say reset i mean restart so just you know restart boom your computer no big deal you’re gonna be good but as you can see Here server.jar double click on it and it works that simple that easy as you can see it’s now opening up and getting everything launched it’s no longer giving us that jni error so i just wanted to upload this really really fast really really quick

About this video: This is a very quickly and simple tutorial that will show you how to fix the JNI error in Java when you encounter it in Minecraft. You could get this error when starting a Minecraft server, or you could get a JNI error when launching Minecraft Forge or start a Paper Minecraft server. You could also get the JNI error when running other Java programs, however, Minecraft is the most common game to have this issue. So, let’s go ahead and show you how to fix the JNI error in Java for your Minecraft server or Minecraft mods!
The JNI error is caused by something pretty simple. You do not have the correct version of Java for your Minecraft server or Minecraft mod. You aren’t looking for Java specifically though. You are actually looking for the Java Development Kit. This is what developers use to create Java applications like Minecraft servers and the Forge Mod Loader.
However, you also need the Java Development Kit in order to run these applications, and that is why you need the Java JDK in order to fix the JNI error on your Minecraft server. How can you get the Java JDK? Well, we have a link in the description above to the Java JDK. Specifically, we have a complete guide on how to get the Java Development Kit in the description above.
Once you are on our website, click the Yellow ‘Download Java Development Kit’ button to be taken to the Java JDK download. Once you are there, scroll down and click the down link next to the Windows installer. This will download the Java Development Kit installer. You may need to keep or save the installer depending on your browser.
After you have the installer downloaded, double click it on it. The setup for the JDK will open up. Click ‘Next’ and then click ‘Next’ again. The Java JDK will then install. Find ‘Finish’ when it is down. Finally, you will be able to start your Minecraft server, open up the Forge launcher, or run your Java program!
