When using blade under Windows, I get 'Failed to find Java VM' error

Issue

• Using any blade command, as

blade version

shows 'Failed to find Java VM' error

Environment

• Microsoft Windows.

Resolution

• This behavior can be related to updating the JVM after a blade installation. In this case, blade configuration points to previous JVM path. In consequence, blade cannot find the Java executable.
• Fixing the issue:
  • Locate

<user>/.jpm/windows/bin/blade.ini file 

in your Windows file system.

• • Check the current definition for

vm.location 

property. For example

vm.location=C:\Program Files\Java\jre1.8.0_421\bin\server\jvm.dll

• • This property defines the JVM path. Thus, you have to change it with the new JVM path. Save the blade.ini file.
• Now, blade would be operational again.
