@Mertens1 can you provide more details? Was this related to using Zowe Explorer? If yes, can you file an issue here? https://github.com/zowe/vscode-extension-for-zowe/issues

Tgmertens commented 1 year ago

Yes it was when us using zowe, the issue I have is that the file path was not found for Java_11 Home, my comuter shows java as an app rather than a file, if I see it correct

Thanks Tom Mertens

For Zowe Explorer and accessing data sets you do not need Java. Perhaps try the Slack channel #zowe-explorer on openmainframeproject.slack.com.

I assume you also installed Z Open Editor, which is the COBOL, PL/I, REXX, HLASM, JCL editor that requires Java. If you want to get that working you need to find out where Java was installed, which is different if you are on Windows vs Mac, as well which Java distribution you are using. If you are not familiar with Java I would recommend to install it with an automated installer app that typically creates a JAVA_HOME environment variable for you that our editor will find and use.

The default for IBM's Semeru Java distribution is /Library/Java/JavaVirtualMachines/ibm-semeru-open-11.jdk/Contents/Home on Mac and C:\Program Files\Semeru\jdk-11.0.17.8-openj9\ on Windows. If you use Oracle then it would be in different folder, but similar to those. You also see that sometimes there is a version number used in the path, unfortunately.

Most courses you can unenroll, I do not see that I can in Fundamentals and Concepts course, is there a way I can unenroll and restart, the problem began last fall, vsc1 went good, no problems now after starting back in fundamentals challenge or reoing vsc1 I can not get back into dat sets that IBM put forth for students. Here is what I have zowe cli is not being read, I will uninstall and reinstall zowe cli everything else is ok,

Thanks

Have a great weekend

@Mertens1, I understand. This site is for problems with IBM Z Open Editor, i.e. the editor for writing programs. For Zowe we have other sites as mentioned above. We try to help here if we can, but we do need much more details about your problem. Exact steps to reproduce the problem, error codes, log files etc.

There are also several courses out there that utilize our editor and Zowe, so I do not know which one you are referring to. It would definitely be best to contact the course providers for help. I am sure they list help forums or channels as well.

Assuming you are doing IBM's Z Xplore, I found this: https://ibmzxplore.influitive.com/forum/t/contact-support/115 They also have a forum: https://ibmzxplore.influitive.com/forum/
