Actually, that is completely wrong and in reality is one of the reasons so many folks have problems with the transition from JRE 1.6 to JRE 1.7--they do not clear out the old and incorrect configurations. Here are extracts of the javasettings_Windows_x86.xml configuration file with the JRE in use by Libre Office. It is found per-user at C:\Users\<username>\AppData\Roaming\LibreOffice\3\user\config For JRE 1.6u34: <jreLocations xsi:nil="true"/> <javaInfo xsi:nil="false" vendorUpdate="2004-01-30" autoSelect="false"> <vendor>Oracle Corporation</vendor> <location>file:///C:/Program%20Files%20(x86)/Java/jre6</location> <version>1.6.0_34</version> <features>0</features> <requirements>0</requirements> and of JRE 1.7u6 <jreLocations xsi:nil="true"/> <javaInfo xsi:nil="false" vendorUpdate="2004-01-30" autoSelect="false"> <vendor>Oracle Corporation</vendor> <location>file:///C:/Program%20Files%20(x86)/Java/jre7</location> <version>1.7.0_06</version> <features>0</features> <requirements>0</requirements> This .XML configuration file is NOT updated when you upgrade your JRE! It must be deleted and allowed to rebuild--using your system environment PATH, or you will end up with non-functional LO Java functions. -- View this message in context: http://nabble.documentfoundation.org/Libreoffice-and-Java-tp4003369p4004059.html Sent from the Users mailing list archive at Nabble.com. -- For unsubscribe instructions e-mail to: users+h...@global.libreoffice.org Problems? http://www.libreoffice.org/get-help/mailing-lists/how-to-unsubscribe/ Posting guidelines + more: http://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Netiquette List archive: http://listarchives.libreoffice.org/global/users/ All messages sent to this list will be publicly archived and cannot be deleted
