I have a new mac with Mavericks (ie without java). I installed java 8, but my grails project not supported java8, and I need to install java7. How I can to install java 7 manually (java installer will determine the java 8) without uninstalling existing java8?

  1. check out which version is installed

    java -version

  2. download and install the version 1.7 from the oracle servers

this should work

  • no. Java 7 installer will closed without installation java 7 after detecting installed java 8. – monyag May 12 '15 at 11:06

Apple disabled older versions of Java. here is the link to the Oracle website. There are further information about new and old java jdk's on Apple Mac https://www.java.com/en/download/faq/java_mac.xml
