             Summary: bin/karaf selecting the wrong Java VM on a computer with 
Java 8 installed
                 Key: KARAF-2921
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/KARAF-2921
             Project: Karaf
          Issue Type: Improvement
    Affects Versions: 3.0.1
         Environment: Mac OS X with Java 8 and Java 7 installed
            Reporter: David Riccitelli


I have a Mac OS X with both Java 8 and Java 7 installed.

If I run *bin/karaf*, the script selects the Java 8 VM and things do not work 
well.

I made a small change to line 198 of the *bin/karaf* script, from:
{code}
JAVA_HOME="$(/usr/libexec/java_home)"
{code}

to:
{code}
JAVA_HOME="$(/usr/libexec/java_home -v 1.7)"
{code}

This way the script selects the Java 7 VM.

May I suggest to update the script in the repo as well?

Thanks!
