Reopening this issue as "lgusaas" has tested this on Mac (see comment #3) and
it seems we have to fix something.

It is a bug. OS X does not come with Java and Apple no longer provides its own
version of the newer versions of Java.

AOO does not find the Oracle versions of Java installed on Macs unless the
legacy Apple Java 6 is also installed.

AOO should be able to find the latest version of Java without having an
obsolete version installe.

It is Mac specific. AOO works with newer versions of JRE but only if the legacy
Apple verion is also installed on the computer.

Oracle Java works in OpenOffice if you also have Apple's Java 6 installed.
OpenOffice will run with with your preferences set to no JRE. Go back to Tools
> Options dialogbox and unselect it.
If you still have problem, try to reset the profile folder:

This is not a bug. Next time, please post your question directly to the

I have done some more research. It seems the problem is a bug in Oracle Java.

Given Larry's additional research does it make sense to close this as resolved
not a problem and add a work around to the Known Issues section of the Release
Notes and possibly to the minimum requirements for Mac? Larry is there a known
link for the legacy version of Apple Java 6 we can point people to?

Is this a Mac specific problem in the JRE 6 requirement?
