Fortunately, there is a very simple workaround. Because of it, the installer doesn’t recognize JRE 9. To solve this issue I decided to install JRE version 8.Īpparently, there is a bug in SQL Server 2017 installer.

Java Runtime Environment 9 was installed and is visible in system. Currently, the newest available version is JRE 9.0.1 and can be downloaded here. According to the error message, it needs to be JRE 7 Update 51 or newer. However, I wanted to install Polybase so I had to install Oracle JRE. That will reduce the number of rules to check. If you don’t want to use Polybase you can easily fix it by unchecking the proper checkbox in Feature Selection window. It is a known error since SQL Server 2016 introduced Polybase feature. To continue, download the Oracle SE Java Runtime Environment from. You are responsible for and must separately locate, read and accept applicable third-party license terms. Microsoft grants you no rights for such third-party software. The Oracle Java SE Runtime Environment is software provided by a third party. This computer does not have the Oracle Java SE Runtime Environment Version 7 Update 51 (64-bit) or higher installed. During SQL Server 2017 installation I faced “Oracle JRE 7 Update 51 (64-bit) or higher is required for Polybase” error and I was not able to proceed. A few days later after the official announcement I wanted to install it in my virtual environment to take a look at newest features.
