Incompatible JavaHl library loaded

I'm having a problem with Subclipse and the JavaHL library. Subclipse it gives the error:

Incompatible JavaHL library loaded. 1.8.x or later required.

I am using Ubuntu desktop 12.04 32 bit.

Answer 1

Subclipse 1.10.x requires SVN 1.8.x libraries. This Wiki page explains it.

http://subclipse.tigris.org/wiki/JavaHL

I think Ubuntu 12.04 comes with SVN 1.6.x. So you probably want Subclipse 1.8.x and SVNKit, or else get Subversion and JavaHL from someone other than Ubuntu. See here:

You are going to have to provide more details about what you did or tried to do. – Subdelirium

Now its working fine, this link is really helpful I need to have Subclipse 1.8.x..finally done with it, thanks for you help. – Vex

Fyi, Subclipse 1.8 requires JavaHL 1.7 or later. – Franco

Answer 2

For me none of the methods found doesn't work. I have Ubuntu Xenial (16.04), eclipse 64b, java 64b, and libjava-svn packages installed, but it doesn't help. I've also tried manually download and install current Oracle java version and force eclipse to use it (-vm). Finally i went to subclipse page :

And in eclipse manually installed this:

http://subclipse.tigris.org/update_1.12.x

After eclipse has been restarted it finally found valid jni version.

Thanks. I can confirm that installing Subversion JavaHL Native Library Adapter 1.9.3 from that source solved the issue. Turned out Ubuntu 16.04 has a newer library (1.9) than is the by default required one (1.8) – Nessi

Answer 3

Same error here, I've just installed libsvnclientadapter-java package and now it's working fine!

Enjoy

Where does this even place the libraries? I installed it as well but have no idea where to look for the JARs. – Fictive

Answer 4

In Ubuntu 16.04, for me I just had to install the following package:

$sudo apt-get install subversion

$sudo apt-get install libapache2-svn

After that I just restart eclipse and everything was fine.
