macOS Catalina will not run 2.9.2

Post by Rich »

Version 2.9.2 for mac os says it is now 64 bit / Java 8, but i'm still getting the old "No Java runtime present, requesting install."
Of course the java 6 can't be installed now, do I just need to change something in the config?

Hello,
Yes, this is due to Catalina not allowing 32-bit files, and Java6 provided by apple being only 32 bit. Apple has not released a 64-bit version of the Java6, and likely never will. We have been able to get around this locally by removing the 32-bit check from the apple java6 installation file. We will be making this change available on our download site, but you can get it right now here: https://netburner-nndk.s3.amazonaws.com/Java6forOSX.pkg
