Same problem here; LO 3.4.4 won't recognize the 7u2b11 jre. Considering that
[email protected] was able to get LO working with Java 7 by
copying the jre7 into the usual jre6 location, I thought I might be able to get
LO to use jre7 by putzing around with the javasettings_$PLATFORM.xml file in
the profile config directory. No such luck; it still wouldn't use the jre.

The much-hyped bugs in the original Java 7 release (which mattered a lot to
Lucene and Solr but don't affect most people and were avoidable via a
command-line switch) were already fixed in 7u1 on Oct 19. The only other fixes
in 7u1 were security fixes; 7u2 has a lot more fixes and improvements, and I've
been using the 7u2 prereleases for two months now without any issues.

When 7u2 goes final (within a couple weeks) you'll start to see a lot of people
switching away from Java 6. Oracle may even start offering 7u2 as the default
java download. Since this bug isn't a real incompatibility but just an
inability to recognize java 7 properly, I think it's pretty unfortunate that it
doesn't look like it'll be fixed before you start getting tons of users running
into the bug rather than just a few early adopters.
