Java SE 6 required but not available from Oracle #82

Open mstoth opened 9 years ago

mstoth commented 9 years ago

I have a new machine running Yosemite and the download for JES will not install due to version 6 being required. Version 8 is the current recommended version for Yosemite and version 6 is no longer available. So unless I find another copy of version 6 somewhere, my new machine can not run JES.

It is possible to run Java 6 still: http://support.apple.com/en-us/HT202643 I'm running Java 6 on Yosemite on my machine. It works fine.
