[GRADLE-2545] Wrong JAVA_HOME setting Created: 03/Nov/12  Updated: 10/Feb/17  Resolved: 10/Feb/17

 Description   

After installing I got error

ERROR: JAVA_HOME is set to an invalid directory: /usr/lib/jvm/default-java

Please set the JAVA_HOME variable in your environment to match the
location of your Java installation.

But I have correct JAVA_HOME.
I went to /usr/bin/gradle and found some strange place

export JAVA_HOME=/usr/lib/jvm/default-java
export GRAILS_HOME=/usr/share/gradle

  1. Attempt to set JAVA_HOME if it's not already set.
    if [ -z "$JAVA_HOME" ] ; then

I think it is something wrong with first line.

There have been lots of fixes to the script since Gradle 1.0-milestone-3. Can you try a more recent version of Gradle and let us know if the problem still exists?

I have downloaded and extracted the gradle-1.9 and the java-1.7. The environment variable for java and gradle has been set too. But unfortunately me too getting the same error message. If needed more information please post it here.
OS: win7 x64
Java: 1.7 x64
Android Studio 0.4.0

this error persists on ubuntu 14.04 x64.
I solved by simply editing the file "/usr/bin/gradle" and commenting the follow line:

before editing:

/usr/bin/gradle
CLASSPATH=$APP_HOME/lib/gradle-launcher-1.4.jar

export JAVA_HOME=/usr/lib/jvm/default-java

after editing:

/usr/bin/gradle
CLASSPATH=$APP_HOME/lib/gradle-launcher-1.4.jar

# export JAVA_HOME=/usr/lib/jvm/default-java

Other informations:

I'm not using OpenJDK7, but the Oracle-JDK7 installed as described in this link
