Hi Schumann, OK here are the steps I took.
First I downloaded the Java JDK and ran the install. I did nothing with Java after that. Next I downloaded OFBiz and put the folder on my desktop I opened terminal, navigated to the OFBiz folder on my desktop. I typed ./gradlew loadDefault ofbiz. At this point I got several rows of dots progressing down the Terminal window so I feel like something good happened there. The prompt returned with no error message. I then went to my web browser and tried to open https://localhost:8443/accounting <https://localhost:8443/accounting>. I got the “can’t establist a secure connection” message. This is the extent of the instructions given at https://ofbiz.apache.org/business-users.html#UsrInstall <https://ofbiz.apache.org/business-users.html#UsrInstall> so I didn’t know where to go from here. I Googling my problem but that yielded no meaningful results so I double checked my steps. This is when I noticed that the Java Download page actually has two versions of Java, Java SE 11.0.2 Oracle JDK at the top and farther down is Java SE 8U201 JDK. The first time I looked at the page I didn’t notice this and downloaded the Oracle JDK. I downloaded the Java SE 8U201 JDK and ran the install. I did nothing with Java after this besides confirm that I’m now running Version 8 Update 201 (build 1.8_201-b09) and NOT the Oracle 11. I went back to Terminal and this time I followed the instructions in the readme file included with OFBiz. I typed ./gradlew cleanAll loadDefault then I typed ./gradlew ofbiz. I then tried the https://localhost:8443/accounting <https://localhost:8443/accounting> URL and got the same "Safari can’t open… can’t establish a secure connection…”. I tried the URL in Chrome and got something similar, can’t connect. This is the extent of the instructions included in the Readme file so I don’t know where to go from here.
