ADDITIONAL SYSTEM INFORMATION :
Ubuntu 22.04 jammy, but it will happen under any Linux
A DESCRIPTION OF THE PROBLEM :
If a java shebang script contains a `package x.y.z;` statement, you cannot run it from just any directory, as it used to be in Java 21. You get an error like:
```
$ ./hello
error: end of path to source file does not match its package name org.example: ./hello
```
REGRESSION : Last worked in version 21.0.4
STEPS TO FOLLOW TO REPRODUCE THE PROBLEM :
1. Create the file hello:
```
#!/usr/lib/jvm/jdk-23-oracle-x64/bin/java --source 11
//#!/usr/bin/java --source 11
package org.example;
public class Main {
public static void main(String... a) {
System.out.println("hello");
}
}
```
2. chmod a+x hello
3. [optional] move hello to /usr/bin
4. run this script, e.g. ./hello
EXPECTED VERSUS ACTUAL BEHAVIOR :
EXPECTED -
the script runs
ACTUAL -
error: end of path to source file does not match its package name org.example
---------- BEGIN SOURCE ----------
#!/usr/lib/jvm/jdk-23-oracle-x64/bin/java --source 11
//#!/usr/bin/java --source 11
package org.example;
public class Main {
public static void main(String... a) {
System.out.println("hello");
}
}
---------- END SOURCE ----------
CUSTOMER SUBMITTED WORKAROUND :
Create an additional script, and create the directories corresponding to the package:
mkdir -p org/example
mv hello org/example/
echo -e '#!/bin/bash\n'`pwd`'/org/example/hello'>hello
chmod a+x hello
./hello
Probably changing the package name to bin.usr would also work ;)
