Uninstalling java JDK, Reinstall I tried setting up java home and bin.

Answer 1

It's very simple, it also happens to me.

1. First uninstall JDK 1.8
2. Install JDK 1.14
3. set the environment variable for java.
4. Run again the run-nifi bat file.

Your problem will be resolved.

Answer 2

I had came across the same situation, after runnig .bat file that launches Nifi, it simply did not start and the cmd returned to its initial state.

This solution helped. Try to clear all folders with '*_repository' name.
