             Summary: DevSuite 1.4 Mac installer Java Install Instructions.
                 Key: JBDS-4420
                 URL: https://issues.jboss.org/browse/JBDS-4420
             Project: Red Hat JBoss Developer Studio (devstudio)
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: installer
         Environment: DevSuite Installer 1.4, online installer, Mac OS 10.10.5.

            Reporter: Robert Terzi


Running the DevSuite 1.4 online installer on Mac OS, there are several problems with the instructions to install Java:

# There is a link that is shown to "download from +this location+.  The link doesn't work and it is impossible to find out where +this location+ is supposed to point to.
# The instructions say that Java 1.8 is required, but they appear under an unchecked OpenJDK 1.8 box.   It doesn't make it clear, why you can't just click the OpenJDK box.
# The instructions don't indicate if you need a JDK or JRE. 
# It looks like it is trying to get you to download and install Oracle Java 1.8 but doesn't ever say that.
