Java 6 For Os X Mavericks
OS X Mavericks Eclipse Java Issue – To open “Eclipse.app,” you need Java SE 6 runtime Last Updated on July 16th, 2017 by App Shah 8 comments OS X Mavericks installation on my Macbook Pro Ratina went smooth. Mar 11, 2014 On my Macs today, I only hava Java 7 installed and there is no Java 6. Everything I need works. But when Java 7 was still fairly new, I did have both and needed both. I tried (again) to install Java (jre7u51) in Mac OS X 10.9.2 (Mavericks). It did not go as you said. First, the download appeared to go as planned. Download and install for.
If, after installing Java for OS X 2014-001 and the latest version of Java 7 from Oracle, you want to disable Java 7 and re-enable the Apple-provided Java SE 6 web plug-in and Web Start functionality, follow these steps. Os x lion 10.7 free download.

OS X Mavericks installation on my Macbook Pro Ratina went smooth. So far I loved using it. But recently noticed some issue with Java and Eclipse.
When I clicked on Eclipse Shortcut, it shows message: No Java runtime present, requesting install.
Another must read:Where is Java installed on my Mac OS/X system?
Then I manually installed the jdk (1.7.45) on my mac, it seems that the installation works fine. When the installation done, I open the terminal and type “java -version” as well, it also shows the same error: No Java runtime present, requesting install.
This is in part due to Oracle’s missing definitions of the JRE7 VM capabilities. In case you don’t want to install JRE6 at all and simply use JRE7 without symlinking it to the JRE6 either you can do the following:
Step-1
Go to below location
2 | /Library/Java/JavaVirtualMachines/jdk1.7.0_60.jdk/Contents |
Step-2
Open Info.plist
and Search for below lines
2 4 | <array> </array> |
Step-3
Replace those with below lines
2 4 6 8 | <array> <string>BundledApp</string> <string>Applets</string> </array> |
Hope it helps. There is one related Eclipse bug which I found.
