MeatBallzz7 Posted July 31, 2013 Posted July 31, 2013 So after some extensive research I realized that the Technic Launcher doesn't like Java 7 on Mac OS. Downgrading is down right impossible for me as I have tried everything to get back to Java 6. I heard if you update the natives to the current 1.6 version the mod pack will launch. So I copied the new natives and replaced the old ones. But I still get a crash but this time with an error log. Can anyone help me out? http://pastebin.com/TihNTbLf Quote
Dash16 Posted July 31, 2013 Posted July 31, 2013 Tried everything? It's not impossible, you just have to know how to pull it out by the roots and fix any issues that might cause. Difficult, but not impossible. If you had Java 6 before installing Java 7, might be a simple matter. Did you install the Java 7 JDK, or use some other means to update to Java 7? If you can provide the following info, I can help you ensure that Java 6 is used to run techniclauncher and Hexxit. 1) Open /Applications/Utilities/Terminal.app 2) Type the following commands, and provide the responses to them: java -version which java ls -la /Library/Java/JavaVirtualMachines ls -la /usr/bin/java Quote

Dash16 Posted August 1, 2013 Posted August 1, 2013 Unless you went out of your way to delete Java 6, it's still there, just not used. Have you already tried deleting the Java 7 JDK from /Library/Java/JavaVirtualMachines? In most cases, simply removing this reverts the system default to Java 6, which is still located in the /System/Library/Frameworks folder. sudo rm -rf /Library/Java/JavaVirtualMachines/jdk1.7.0_25.jdk should do the trick. Run another "java -version" afterwards to be sure. Quote

I'll try that command and see if it works:) Quote
