I want to run ballerina in an alpine based image. Installed java 17(jre) and set the JAVA_HOME, JAVA_CMD and other variables. when I run "bal --version", it gives me the following.
"Error: JAVA_HOME is not defined correctly."
I used the zip installation method.
Also, which of the following is the correct executable?
ballerina-2201.8.4-swan-lake/bin/bal or
ballerina-2201.8.4-swan-lake/distributions/ballerina-2201.8.4/bin/bal

Did you defined the env as below?
ENV JAVA_HOME /usr/lib/jvm/...
You don't necessarily have to install it using zip. You can install it in below way as well.
RUN wget -q https://dist.ballerina.io/downloads/2201.8.4/ballerina-2201.8.4-swan-lake-linux-x64.deb
RUN dpkg -i ballerina-2201.8.4-swan-lake-linux-x64.deb
RUN rm ballerina-2201.8.4-swan-lake-linux-x64.deb
yes, I tried it like that

The correct path is ballerina-2201.8.4-swan-lake/bin/bal.

Thank you, is it possible to install it to a specific folder this way? because I am planning to cache it as a layer in buildpacks
