--------------------------------------

             Summary: javadoc not found using java.home 
                 Key: MJAVADOC-595
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MJAVADOC-595
             Project: Maven Javadoc Plugin
          Issue Type: Bug
    Affects Versions: 3.1.0
            Reporter: Oliver Lüttin


When searching for the javadoc executable the plugin looks in java.home/../bin.

This doesn't work with ubuntu 18.10 and java-11-openjdk.

Instead it should look at java.hom/bin where the javadoc executable is located.

Here's the code snippet from AbstactJavadocMojo:
{code:java}
3720 private String getJavadocExecutable()
3721	throws IOException
3722	{

...

3768 else
3769	{
3770	javadocExe =
3771	new File( SystemUtils.getJavaHome() + File.separator + ".." +  File.separator + "bin", javadocCommand );
3772	}

{code}
 

As workaround one could configure the executable in the pom.xml:

 
{code:java}
<configuration>
    <javadocExecutable>${java.home}/bin/javadoc</javadocExecutable>
</configuration>
{code}
