Java troubles. A java application I needed required the latest java update but after running the Oracle updater, &#x2F;usr&#x2F;bin&#x2F;java still pointed to the previous version. A simple solution is to point the symlink to the right place, but with SIP enabled that symlink can&#x27;t be modified. Here&#x27;s the stack overflow guide I was following: <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;stackoverflow.com&#x2F;questions&#x2F;12757558&#x2F;installed-java-7-on-mac-os-x-but-terminal-is-still-using-version-6&#x2F;14875241#14875241" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;stackoverflow.com&#x2F;questions&#x2F;12757558&#x2F;installed-java-...</a><p>Looking back, I think you are right, it would have been easier to just add a symlink under the &#x2F;usr&#x2F;local&#x2F;bin folder. Though it didn&#x27;t cross my mind at that point.
