Well bear in mind (if this helps the confidence factor) that "installing" Java is really just putting files on your machine and then you basically set a default for the machine (JAVA_HOME environment variable on Linux and Windows, and I think Mac does this via symlinks from some Default directory to the version of Java you want to use IIRC). On Linux I just throw every new Java update under /opt/java and change JAVA_HOME, and I can still point specific apps to specific JVMs if necessary. So don't worry that you're going to screw something up by grabbing another version of Java, particularly if you're only pointing jetty/gae to it. Java's just files on disk. Can you not just repoint the Mac "default" symlink directory or however they do that back to the previous version of Java? -- Matthew Woodward [email protected] http://blog.mattwoodward.com identi.ca / Twitter: @mpwoodward Please do not send me proprietary file formats such as Word, PowerPoint, etc. as attachments. http://www.gnu.org/philosophy/no-word-attachments.html -- official tag/function reference: http://openbd.org/manual/ mailing list - http://groups.google.com/group/openbd?hl=en
