No such file or directory: 'java' adding JMX account using Splunk add-on for Tomcat

I am trying to use the Splunk Add-on for Tomcat  first time. When I try Add Account this results in error message below. I think the add-on expects Java to be somewhere. Java is installed on my all-in-one Splunk server, where the add-on is installed. How do I make Java available to this add-on?

Traceback (most recent call last): File "/opt/splunk/etc/apps/Splunk_TA_tomcat/lib/splunktaucclib/rest_handler/handler.py", line 142, in wrapper for name, data, acl in meth(self, *args, **kwargs): File "/opt/splunk/etc/apps/Splunk_TA_tomcat/lib/splunktaucclib/rest_handler/handler.py", line 107, in wrapper self.endpoint.validate( File "/opt/splunk/etc/apps/Splunk_TA_tomcat/lib/splunktaucclib/rest_handler/endpoint/init.py", line 85, in validate self._loop_fields("validate", name, data, existing=existing) File "/opt/splunk/etc/apps/Splunk_TA_tomcat/lib/splunktaucclib/rest_handler/endpoint/init.py", line 82, in _loop_fields return [getattr(f, meth)(data, *args, **kwargs) for f in model.fields] File "/opt/splunk/etc/apps/Splunk_TA_tomcat/lib/splunktaucclib/rest_handler/endpoint/init.py", line 82, in <listcomp> return [getattr(f, meth)(data, *args, **kwargs) for f in model.fields] File "/opt/splunk/etc/apps/Splunk_TA_tomcat/lib/splunktaucclib/rest_handler/endpoint/field.py", line 56, in validate res = self.validator.validate(value, data) File "/opt/splunk/etc/apps/Splunk_TA_tomcat/bin/Splunk_TA_tomcat_account_validator.py", line 85, in validate self._process = subprocess.Popen( # nosemgrep false-positive : The value java_args is File "/opt/splunk/lib/python3.9/subprocess.py", line 951, in __init_ self._execute_child(args, executable, preexec_fn, close_fds, File "/opt/splunk/lib/python3.9/subprocess.py", line 1837, in _execute_child raise child_exception_type(errno_num, err_msg, err_filename) FileNotFoundError: [Errno 2] No such file or directory: 'java'
