Description

After upgrade to Big Sur Apache Directory Studio fails to start (Can't create JVM).

This may be due to one (or both) of the following:

1) behavior of /usr/libexec/java_home has changed. It now produces no output if JAVA_HOME is already defined.

2) The JAVA_HOME value now has a space in the pathname. So all uses of JAVA_HOME in shell scripts $JAVA_HOME need to be quoted.

$ echo $JAVA_HOME
/Library/Internet Plug-Ins/JavaAppletPlugin.plugin/Contents/Home

Tried deletion and re-install. No change.
