I want to upgrade my jdk on a CentOS server, after some simple searches I found some solutions.



From this link, you can see that the instructions are simple.




  • install your chosen jdk from rpm package or from source


  • possibly choose some alternatives


  • check that the new version installed (java -version)



The first two steps above, I easily completed, but in check version step I get this error:



Error occurred during initialization of VM
java/lang/NoClassDefFoundError: java/lang/Object


I have also checked:



alternatives --config java


and symbolic links.



I have also tried which command to find out what java is actually running and this was the link directions.



/usr/bin/java -> /etc/alternatives/java -> /usr/java/jdk-1.8.0_40/bin/java


the weird thing is that when I run:



/usr/bin/java -version


It is OK and it returns the version but when I run java without any prefix I got that error.

          The problem was a system variable CLASSPATH.



          and it must be exported in some way for example /etc/bashrc file because jdk needs to know the pass of classes and libraries to load it's modules.



          in my case i sat CLASSPATH=/usr/java/jdk1.8.0_40/lib.
