When attempting to install Talend on Windows or Linux, the following error appears.
Unrecognized VM option 'UseConcMarkSweepGC'
Error: Could not create the Java Virtual Machine.
Error: A fatal exception has occurred. Program will exit.
Note: The UseConcMarkSweepGC garbage collector option has been deprecated and subsequently removed in the latest versions of Java, starting from Java 14.
Cause
In general, this error indicates that you are attempting to run the installer in an environment with Java 15 or a later version. While you have specified Java 8 as your version, it is possible that this setting is not system-wide, but rather specific to your user environment.
Resolution
Please ensure that the %JAVA_HOME% variable in the system environment is pointing to the correct version.
Additionally, kindly confirm that you are using a JDK version that is supported by Talend.
Besides setting and exporting the JAVA_HOME System Variable, it is also recommended to update the PATH environment variable to include the Java bin directory.
