If you are using Ubuntu, you could do the following, too:

sudo update-alternatives --config javac

That worked for me.

For more information about installing java/javac using update-alternatives, please refer to: How do I make java default to a manually installed JRE/JDK?

  • THANK YOU! I want to add that this fixes ionic codorva run as well. The error message kept saying to update JAVA_HOME but I had already updated it! – Zhinkk Feb 05 '19 at 03:59

I got solution of this issue,

It mean to say that I have older version of SDK, as per new setup it need at-least SDK-1.8 to get run build of the application.

For that I downloaded new version of SDK from here.
And then updated my SDK version using this article.

After that when I run this command-

ionic run android

It worked for me.

So I found that Ionic at the time of post-Cordova does not like JDK above 1.8.

  1. To Solve get JDK 8.
  2. Remove any JDK or JRE version higher than version 8 because it will automatically look for the highest version JDK the Java folder in c drive.

OR

  1. Next solution is to just change what JDK Cordova looks for to version 8.

This is my best option for my case, I use Cordova 6.2 version (not latest). I've worked with 1.7 Java as long as I can follow the technology from them. But since Cordova upgrade their system, now they prepare using 1.8 to implemented. If I not wrong, since 6.3 version their using that. I work in Snow Leopard with 1.7 java, it's hard to move on to upgrade my OS since I use old Macbook, I don't have several choice here.
