Alex Thurgood <[email protected]> changed: What |Removed |Added ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- Status|NEEDINFO |RESOLVED Resolution|--- |NOTOURBUG --- Comment #3 from Alex Thurgood <[email protected]> --- (In reply to miles from comment #2) > I think this is the cause, if I am correct. > I get this error with both LO from TDF and from Vanilla LO (Apple Store). > The reason is that whenever Java is needed: > - Vanilla LO does not have Java enabled and the wheel starts rotating; > - LO from TDF wants to run Java, but finds only Java 8 and it is not enough, > it wants also Java 6; The dependency on Java6 is known, and will remain so until Oracle can fix a bug in the way it instantiates the Jvm in process. > So, the solution would be - install Java 6 on OSX. But: > I upgraded my OS X to El Capitan. Both Java installations disappeared. I > reinstalled both or seemed to do so, but only Java 8 is displayed on the > Java selection menu in LO Advanced Settings. > That is normal, the Java8 installation masks the Java6 installation. > Either El Capitan does not allow Java 6 to install or it does not install > properly. > > Why does opening a doc or docx need Java installed - I do not know. LO for Osx comes with a bundled extension that requires java and this gets activated when you open a doc or docx file. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.
