Apache Directory Studio requires the JDK and will show that error when it tries to run on a normal JRE.

Find the ApacheDirectoryStudio.ini file in the application root (e.g., in "C:\Program Files (x86)\Apache Directory Studio")

Add or update these 2 lines in the INI ['C:\Program Files\Apache Directory Studio\Apache Directory Studio.ini'] (adjust the JDK path according to your setup):

-vm
C:/Program Files/Java/jdk1.8.0_60/bin

This has been resolved.

The issue is that, my "Apache Directory Studio" is 64bit and my "jdk" is 32bit. So I just uninstalled the jdk 32bit and installed jdk 64bit, after this issue has been fixed.

Thanks everyone for sharing your knowledge.

Just to complement, you have to install the JRE and JDK.

Apache Directory Studio Edit the configuration file for ADS. Mine was here

C:\Apache Directory Studio\ApacheDirectoryStudio\ApacheDirectoryStudio

Take a backup of the file before editing it.

Add the following lines to the bottom of the file and save it.

-vm
C:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.8.0_05\bin\javaw.exe
--launcher.appendVmargs
-vmargs
-Dosgi.requiredJavaVersion=1.7
-Xms256m
-Xmx1024m

Works now :)

The same technique also works for Eclipse. Just edit the eclipse configuration file in the same way. Mine was here: -

C:\Eclipse\eclipse\eclipse

This worked for me, thanks! I'm on Win10 x64 and doesn't use Eclipse, don't know if that has anything to do with it though :)

If you look at the second line in the error dialog screenshot, it shows the path that it is looking for the javaw.exe file. It is C:\ProgramData\Oracle\Java\javapath.

If you browse to this directory you'll se that it contains three shortcuts to java.exe, javaw.exe and javas.exe. Make sure that these shortcuts are pointing to valid exe files. If not delete these shortcuts and create new ones.

Another solution is to uninstall the 64bit Apache Directory version and to install the 32bit version, or vice versa if your first setup was the 32bit version.

Here is the windows download page for reference http://directory.apache.org/studio/download/download-windows.html
