Java 1.5?

Feedback Type: Troubleshooting Report

Contributed by: adammasri Friday, April 21 2006 @ 10:30 AM PDT

Product Platform: MacOSX

Used Product For: 1-6 months

Since upgrading to Java 1.5, I can't get DVArchive to work. I run it, and I get the following error message: "DVArchive v3.1 is only certified for Java v1.4.2. This system is using Java 1.5.0_06 which is not compatible. Please install Java 1.4.2 to use DVArchive v3.1." I even tried going to Applications/Utilities/Java/J2SE 5.0/Java Preferences , set Java Applet Runtime Settings to J2SE 1.4.2, and Java Application Runtime Settings to use J2SE 1.4.2 first. I also tried rebooting. But it still won't run. Is there a way to force DVArchive to use Java 1.4.2?

Or, to specify the solution (specifying Java 1.4.2):

Open Applications/Terminal

Enter: cd /System/Library/Frameworks/JavaVM.framework/Versions

Enter: ls -l CurrentJDK

lrwxr-xr-x 1 root wheel 5 May 11 16:36 CurrentJDK -> 1.5.0

Enter: sudo rm CurrentJDK

Enter: sudo ln -s 1.4.2 CurrentJDK

lrwxr-xr-x 1 root wheel 5 May 12 09:47 CurrentJDK -> 1.4.2

Done!
