Two versions of java?

I've managed to confuse my Mac when installing latest java JRE from Oracle. My java pane in System Preferences thinks I'm running 1.7.0_11 but when I go into Terminal and type java -version it appears I'm running 1.6.0_37. ISY admin.jnlp obviously doesn't like java 6 so its not starting. Help!

Update. I completely uninstalled all versions of Java. Then I reinstalled Java 7 from Oracle. Now my Terminal java -version check shows no version at all running! Yet my system preferences shows I have Java 7 (1.7.0_11) happily installed.

 

Needless to say the .jnlp will still not run (normal admin URL runs fine, just not .jnlp). Any Mac guys out there who can help with this mess?

thanks Brian H, but these are a little off-topic. Appreciate the effort to help however.

 

Anyone else out there who can help me with this?

Hi John,

 

I am so very sorry for all the problems you have been having lately with Java/Admin Console. I also wanted to respond to your comment vis-a-vis JQuery: you're correct and we'll surely consider once persistent browser/server connections are more prevalent (otherwise, Admin Console has to keep querying ISY).

 

As far as the problem you are having, may I humbly suggest opening a ticket and scheduling a call. This way, we can log into your computer and address the issue immediately.

 

With kind regards,

Michel

Thank you Michel. Glad to hear that you are keeping your UI options open! Also, thank you for your offer on help with my Java situation. I think I'm OK right now. I've learned that on Macs you must have an instance of Apple's Java 6 SE running on your machine even if you're also running Java 7. I was trying to run with only Java 7 but Apple, as far as I can tell, makes that basically impossible.

 

Thanks again,

 

John
