I'm seeing "JavaHomeError" for MinimServer 2 on my Mac mini, but not on my MacBook Pro. On both of them JRE 8u251 is installed. On my MacBook Pro "/usr/libexec/java_home" gives:

Quote:/Library/Java/JavaVirtualMachines/jdk1.8.0_60.jdk/Contents/Home

In contrast, my Mac mini gives:

Quote:Unable to find any JVMs matching version "(null)".
No Java runtime present, try --request to install.

To me it looks like MinimServer 2 and MinimWatch 2 currently only work correctly, if the SDK has been installed, i.e. they don't use the installed Java runtime environment (JRE). IMO it's quite unusual that a Java application requires the installation of the SDK in order to work.
