#91 OSX Java Runtime Environment problem despite it being installed

[Anonymous]

Hello,

On OSX, I have Java runtime installed (i.e. visiting https://java.com/en/download/installed.jsp on Safari says it's all fine), but despite that, everytime I run FAR I get a "To display the web content, install Java Runtime Environment"...

Running java -version from the Terminal says No Java runtime present, requesting install... and then sending me to Java SDK download: http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/java/javase/downloads/index.html

Do we need Java Runtime Environment or the SDK ???

Thanks,

Cheers,

Hi there,

a JRE is all right, no need for the SDK. All I can tell you for now is that the message "To display the web content..." does not stem from FAR or its launcher.

It's a little bit strange that Safari appearently carries an active Java Plugin (java.com OK) while the Java executable is not in the System PATH (no java -version). But the latter is needed and without further detailed knowledge about your system I'd say: Reinstall Java (JRE) and it should be ok then.

Best regards,

Olivier
