    What does javac -version output? Commented May 21, 2019 at 15:23
  • @StephenKitt "javac 11.0.3", im sorry Commented May 21, 2019 at 15:51
  • OK, so your Java environment appears to be correctly configured; this sounds more like an Atom problem, I’m not familiar with that. Commented May 21, 2019 at 15:53
  • @StephenKitt visual studio code can't find jdk either. But Eclipce can. Commented May 21, 2019 at 15:57
  • If this question actually explained that the problem was that although you can run these programs as commands from an interactive shell (some of) your IDEs fail to run them, it would be a lot clearer. Commented May 21, 2019 at 16:25

Depends on your system, but maybe this will help

Do which java, and it should get you where the os is looking for it. Your PATH setting should be working.

Do ls -al /bin/java, and it might be a link to somewhere else. These links (again, depending on your OS version/distro) might get screwed up.

Follow the links and see if the end of the yellow brick road leads to somewhere, or invalid installation, perhaps?

    It's javac that can't be found, not java. Commented May 21, 2019 at 15:44
  • usr/bin/javac exists too Commented May 21, 2019 at 15:55

    Is that a link? What is your OS/version? and what is the response for ls -al /usr/bin/javac? Commented May 21, 2019 at 18:26
