Solution 1:[1]

Check that you have the environment variable JAVA_HOME defined and set to the root directory of your JDK (not just a JRE, which doesn't include javac)

Solution 2:[2]

for anyone who googles this error when using xml beans (I was forced to maintain an old app that uses xmlbeans and got this error), use jdk 5 and not higher for xmlbeans and this error goes away

Solution 3:[3]

If you are using xml-beans command scomp, you can pun the option -compiler like -compiler "C:\jdk1.8.0.231\bin\javac.exe"
