https://issues.apache.org/ooo/show_bug.cgi?id=121250

          Priority: P3
            Bug ID: 121250
          Assignee: ooo-issues@incubator.apache.org
           Summary: JRE 7 & Openoffice requires a JAVA RUNTIME ENVIRONMENT
                    to perform this task. No java installation colud be
                    found.
          Severity: normal
        Issue Type: DEFECT
    Classification: Application
                OS: All
          Reporter: mwilliams184@rochester.rr.com
          Hardware: All
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
           Version: AOO 3.4.1
         Component: code
           Product: database access

When I try using the Database application to either create a new file or open a
file that I already created, I get the error message " Openoffice.org requires
a Java runtime environment (JRE) to perform this task. Please install a JRE and
restart Openoffice.org." followed by "The connection to the data source "file
name" could not be established. No Jave installation could be found. Please
check your installation." I have Java 7, but when I try manually locate the
file at C:\program files\java\jre7 the error message states "
The folder you selected does not contain a JRE. please select a different
Folder."
I am getting this on two PCs with Windows XP and Windows 7. The file was
created on the PC with Windows XP, but saved on an external hard drive. After
getting a new PC with Windows, I copied the file to a CD and copied back to the
Windows XP PC.

--- Comment #1 from Ariel Constenla-Haile <ar...@apache.org> ---
please note that the solution for this bug has been found: it is a bug in Java
7 that does not install a Windows redistribuable.
Simply follow the advice in
http://www.openoffice.org/development/releases/3.4.1.html#AOO3.4.1ReleaseNotes-KnownIssues

"Apache OpenOffice 3.4.0 and 3.4.1 support Java 7, which is the recommended
configuration; but (especially on 64-bit Windows) you might receive warnings
about the Java version being defective. In that case, download and install the
Microsoft Visual C++ 2010 Redistributable Package. [...]"

You need to download and install this file from Windows site:
