MultiBit Classic requires help on escaping Java 6 on OS X Yosemite #214

Closed ghost closed 9 years ago

ghost commented 9 years ago

In lieu of an updated installer providing auto-update we need instructions for avoiding Java 6. This is necessary since Java 6 does not run on Yosemite.

The fix is simple: Open Terminal and type

cd /Applications/MultiBit.app/Contents/Resources/Java
java -jar multbit-exe.jar

Added more detail to installer page and added it to the contents page. It isn't necessary to fall back to the java -jar technique since the Java 6 workaround works on Yosemite.

Ready for review and close.
