GraalVM setup on Fedora

GraalVM setup on Fedora

1. Download the version you want from GraalVM Releases repository on GitHub . Remember to choose the architecture correctly but i’m assuming most of you have AMD64.

2. Untar the .tar.gz file tar -xzf graalvm-ce-java<version>-linux-amd64-<version>.tar.gz

3. mv the file /usr/lib/jvm/ directory

   mv graalvm-ce-java<version>-linux-amd64-<version> /usr/lib/jvm

4. Now edit the /etc/profile file and add the following to the last.

   export JAVA_HOME=/usr/lib/jvm/graalvm-ce-java17-22.0.0.2 export PATH=$JAVA_HOME/bin:$PATH

5. For it is better to logout or restart to get system wide changes but we can also use source /etc/profile to see the system wide changes but did’nt works always.
