I've had this problem with one of the dev versions too.
Go to the software center and install a JRE (just search for JRE in the search 
box).
You can try to reset the profile too, it may help, see:

      I downloaded the file using the link in the announcement. Then I
installed it using dpkg -i *.deb in the DEB folder. This has been the
usual procedure.
      But when I clicked the AOO icon, nothing seemed to happen. So, I
used the command line using:
     /opt/openoffice.org3/program/soffice.
Immediately I got this error message from the command line: javaldx
failed. User must select a JRE from options dialog!
      How can I select A JRE until AOO runs long enough for me to go to
Tools > Options > AOO > Java?
      This may be somewhat important too: I downloaded the 2012-05-04
daily build from the BuildBot. It did the very same things including
using the command line to start it. I got the same error message as
well.
      I think this might be called a "show stopper".
      I look forward to a solution.

      Important bit of information left out: when installing AOO, the
complete command line from the DEB folder was: sudo dpkg -i *.deb. This
temporarily gave me Administrative privileges while installing it.
      Addendum: I just installed AOO on Ubuntu 12.04 32bit. It started
with the normal splash screen, so I selected a JRE before closing it.
      So, if there is a problem, it is with the Deb 64 bit version.
