Question
When I use rockylinux version 9 and use sdkman to install java, it reports the same error no matter what version is installed, I don't know why this problem occurs, and I am asking for the community's help, the specific error message and system version information is in the following screenshot.

Do you have tar installed? Can you run this with debug enabled? (on ~/.sdkman/etc/config, set sdkman_debug_mode=true)

[Talbot3]

please remove downloaded package, redownload will be ok.

[Talbot3]

i think this not check the package whether download complete .

[Talbot3]

code just run install script, so failed.

Also getting errors trying to install java, guess the download is incomplete.
I was able to update maven without any problem.

$ sdk install java 22.0.1-tem

@wxywizard @rajinder-yadav I had the same issue as you do (MacOS Ventura in my case).
Just try run ulimit -f unlimited and then sdk install java <your_jdk_version> right after in the same terminal. Docs
If it works for you - make the change permanent by adding it to ~/.zshrc or ~/.bash_profile for your shell.

Hi @kstgrd, I'm struggling to see why you need to set the stack size to unlimited to fix these problems. One of the above cases seems due to bad data in out database, the other seems like an issue with zip not installed on the machine.

Hi @marc0der . I run into a similar issue, I'm on a Mac (Sonoma 14.7.1) using ZSH (no frameworks, pure, raw zsh) and tried installing sdkman! in a custom directory (instead of ~/.sdkman).
Installation run flawlessly, run sdk help as suggested after install, and it seems to be alright.
It seems to work without issues until I try to install java. It downloads but the install script seems to delete the file before unpackig or moving the file elsewhere, so it fails.
Zip is installed and working. I turned on debug mode, here's the output:

~ $ sdk install java 21.0.5-amzn

I can't find any solution in other issues or posts anywhere. Thank you in advance.

Just as a side note: I have just uninstalled sdkman and reinstalled it using the default location (no "export SDKMAN_DIR") and it works this time. Installing java ran ok, no errors. So it seems the issue, at least in my situation, was with the custom directory.

Funny thing is that it was under my user dir, just like the default one, so there should be no issues with permissions.
I wonder if it has something to do with the SDKMAN_DIR somehow. Can you try and replicate installing sdkman under a different directory and running it, see if it works? I would love to keep my dev stuff organized. Thank you
