Apache OpenOffice (AOO) Bugzilla – Issue 14781
Installed Java Not Detected During Installation
Last modified: 2003-09-08 16:53:51 UTC
The Java runtime environment or SDK was not detected during installation of OOo 1.1 beta2.
Which jave version should have been detected? On my machine JRE 1.4.0, ~.1 and ~.2 has been detected.
Hi, Just thought I would add that I experienced that to. Installing OO1.1beta2 did not recognise java not matter what I did. Browsing to folder etc. OO1.0.3.1 was working fine with java. The version of java I had was java1.4.0.01 I believe. I downloaded a later version java 1.4.1.02 and now it works fine. I think this small version difference is something few would expect. My machine is running Windows XP Home. Resolved as WORKSFORME seems a bit odd with three people now reporting the same problem. Hope this helps Kelvin
i see this issue reported in the unconfirmed bug 14775 i commented in that bug: >on my Windows98 installation, Java 1.4.0_01 was also not recognized, >then i updated to the latest version, 1.4.1_02 and was recognized. >unfortunately, is not specified in the Release Notes or Readme the >minimum requirement for Java
The java requirements have been changed for beta 2. The setup recognizes these versions: 1.4.0_02, 1.4.0_03 etc. 1.4.1_01, 1.4.1_02 etc. 1.4.2 etc. 1.4.1 is excluded because it does not contain a fix necessary for accessibility.
It's not odd that I write that it works for me, even when it works for me. And when I get such a short bug description I need a crystal ball to reproduce the issue. *** This issue has been marked as a duplicate of 14775 ***
