OSDG, Java 7u21 & Apple Mac

Environment:
1. OSGD v4.60.911 (x86 Solaris 10)
2. MacBook Pro Retina (OS X 10.8.3)
3. Java 7u21 (JDK)
I'm hoping someone has come across this and has a fix, workaround etc. and are willing to share?
Prior to the latest Java 7 update, everything was working fine. I was able to natively login from the MacBook (i.e., no Parallels, VBox or the like), and launch MS Windows desktops from the OSGD WebTop without difficulty. Since the update to Java 7u21, I've been having nothing but grief. Firstly I could not login to OSGD at all. After entering login details, the webpage just sit as though it was trying to authenticate. Then earlier today I took the drastic step of installing the JDK variant of Java 7u21. This immediately cured my OSGD login issue(s). However the problem I'm now experiencing is that I cannot launch any of my applications from the OSGD WebTop. Basically nothing happens. After a period of time, a session is sometimes but not always listed, but then almost immediately disappears. No errors appear on the WebTop.
Anyone any ideas?
TIA,
Robert.

Many thanks for the feedback.
Is there a direct upgrade path from my version (4.60.911) to version 5 or will there have to be intermediate upgrades? Also is there a step-by-step for performing an upgrade?
TIA,
Robert.

  • Learning Java On Apple Mac OS 10

    Hi
    I am just in the early stages of learning Java, using an Apple Mac G4 running OS 10.2.3
    Does anyone know the best software to download to practice, Type /compile and run my programmes on without having to use the Unix Terminal interface...
    The Apple Project Builder is too advanced.
    Thanks
    Steve

    Im not a mac user but the mac osx is unix based and as i use unix all the time...there are two other editors you can use in unix that i dont know if you can use them in mac osx
    one is pico just go to your command prompt and type pico filename
    or if you dont have that you may have vim filename
    using pico is very straight forward and vim is a bit better than vi.
    goodluck

  • Java on Apple Mac???

    Hi,
    I was just wondering does Java runs on Mac with MacOS X? Is there a JDK for Mac?
    Thank you very much :)

    If I remember right, Apple announced that they would be bundling JRE 1.3 support with Mac OS X. I'm assuming this means you can compile as well, because the compiler is written in Java.
    Sun don't have any obvious information on their site though, because the Mac versions of the JDK aren't released by them (why, oh why .. )

    If you can run it under chrome, you have java installed.
    There was some malware that exploited an older version of Java (not javascript) running in a Browser. Since few people use it Apple turned off Java by default in the Safari Browser.
    If you need it for something, just turn it back on in Safari preferences (inside Safari). After a few months of non-use, you may find it has turned itself off again.

  • Java and Apple

    Hi, I'm aware this post may seem incredibly ignorant.
    I'm a Java programmer, who is considering switching from a PC to an Apple Mac. I know very little about Macs, having done all my programming in the Windows/DOS environment. Would anyone be able to tell me if there are versions of the JAVA SDKs for use within the Mac framework? This would greatly affect my decision of whether or not to switch platforms.
    Any help is greatly appreciated.

    Note though that since Apple rather than Sun produces the VMs (in co-operation with Sun to a certain extent) they tend to be slightly later in releasing new versions. I'd expect 1.5 to come out between 3 and 6 months after other platforms.

  • SAPGUI for Java Support on Mac 10.4

    Hi,
    I am using Mac OS 10.4 Tiger version with SAP GUI 6.4 rev6.
    when I use SAPGUI 6.4 for eCATT Scripts, I  am not able to append or insert new rows in the Parameter list.
    Although, all the commands/pushbuttons are working as they should. On pressing the Append button, a line is inserted in the parameter list, I can add new parameter also. But the problem comes while saving the changes. The system message shows that test script saved successfully, but the changes are not reflected in the parameter list.
    The details about the hardware/ software am using are:
    Hardware:
    Machine Name:     iMac
    Machine Model:     PowerMac6,1
    CPU Type:     PowerPC G4  (3.3)
    Software:
    System Version:     Mac OS X 10.4 (8A428)
    Kernel Version:     Darwin 8.0.0
    SAPGUI for JAVA:
    SAPGUI for Java 6.40 rev 6
    (Version ID 064000040600)
    Build: Wed Dec 21 13:01:37 MET 2005 on uw1059
    Java VM: Apple Computer, Inc. Version 1.4.2-54
    OS: Mac OS X(ppc) Version 10.4
    I would like to know if anyone else has faced the same problem with this configuration?
    Do I need to change my configuration?
    I am currently using SAPGUI for Java 6.3 rev8 for my eCATT scripting without the above problem.
    One more problem is that am no more able to do recording through SAPGUI command in eCATT. OSS note 454939 says that SAPGUI for Java does not support eCATT. Use SAPGUI for windows for SAPGUI recordings.
    Does that mean SAPGUI recording in eCATT will not be supported for SAPGUI for Java any further?

  • HT1338 install java 6 on mac 10.8?

    I use Netbeans for development and have tried 3 versions, however, they are always appearing blurry on my retina display. Further to this I have installed the latest version of java 7 which has made no difference.
    From what I have read the only way to get Netbeans to display correctly on a retina display is to use java 6, however, prior to java 7 Apple managed java for Mac. I have been unable to find java 6 in the App Store or anywhere else for Mac.
    How can I downgrade from java 7 to java 6?

    I'm on Lion, not Mountain Lion, but I experienced the issue with the fonts too after upgrading to Java 7. On my system the Java 6 SDK is still available at System/Library/Java/JavaVirtualMachines/1.6.0.jdk.
    Since I still wanted Java 7 to be the default version and just change it for NetBeans, I edited the netbeans.conf file to tell it to use Java 6. To get to netbeans.conf, right-click on the NetBeans application and select Show Package Contents. Then navigate to Contents/Resources/NetBeans/etc and open netbeans.conf. Uncomment the netbeans_jdkhome option and set it as follows:
    netbeans_jdkhome="/System/Library/Java/JavaVirtualMachines/1.6.0.jdk/Contents/Ho me"
    The fonts should now be fixed (and when you go to NetBeans > About NetBeans it should show that it's running Java 6).
    I'm not sure if this will help for Mountain Lion, but if it's just a matter of not having Java 6 installed, then you could simply download the Java 6 SDK from Oracle's site, or copy it from a Mac running Lion (or earlier maybe would work too).
    And make sure you run Software Update first, since I know Apple disabled Java temporarily until the latest update, due to a security concern (although that may have only affected the browser plugin).
