Java 6 runtime environment & old Filemaker pro Have an older large environment running FileMaker Pro 10, on OSX 10.7.  It's got:


  java version "1.6.0_65" 
  Java(TM) SE Runtime Environment (build 1.6.0_65-b14-462-11M4609) 
  Java HotSpot(TM) 64-Bit Server VM (build 20.65-b04-462, mixed mode) 


The problem is that within Filemaker Server, the database Admin Console is a Java applet and ONLY runs in legacy versions, and only runs on OSX Server 10.5-10.7.. Due to a 1000 seat license ($$$$), the client won't upgrade. So we're re-installing on a 10.7 server.

the issue is that when initializing FMP10, you have to have the Console Admin, and it won't fire up withoutthe correct flavor of Java happy...

Apple has offered a version of Java that's supposedly fixing this, (java for OSX 2014-001), but it's not fixing the issue.

The symptom is that whenever I attempt to fire up the applet, i get the following 



Any ideas why it's not seeing the RE that I've got installed?  Or do I have something else set incorrectly?

When I inspect Console, it shows an error flag: 


  com.apple.JavaWebStart: No Java Runtime present, requesting install.


However, if I hit terminal  (java - version), it shows: 


  java version "1.6.0_65" 
  Java(TM) SE Runtime Environment (build 1.6.0_65-b14-462-11M4609) 
  Java HotSpot(TM) 64-Bit Server VM (build 20.65-b04-462, mixed mode)


Why isn't it seeing/using the RE that I've got installed?

NOTE:
This is a legacy issue, please skip and save yourself a headache if you intend to recommend a newer version of Java or Filemaker Pro.  This isn't happenning..  It worked fine until this server HDD decided to die, and as they have a half-dozen backup units, they're not interested in dropping the financial equivalent of a midsize car into software...
Have you tried with the newest java from Apple: https://support.apple.com/kb/DL1572?viewlocale=en_US&amp;locale=en_US ??

And then re-enable the JRE plugin and Java Web Start as described here: https://support.apple.com/en-us/HT202643
