I&#8217;m not going to say it is revolutionary, but it certainly has some nice improvements. One particular issue often mentioned on the internet, is that some software stops working on OS X Lion or Mountain Lion.<\/p>\n<p>I needed Oracle SQL Developer, so downloaded the installer from <a href=\"http:\/\/www.oracle.com\/technetwork\/developer-tools\/sql-developer\/downloads\/index.html\">Oracle Technet<\/a>. To my surprise, it wouldn&#8217;t start. It would be very inconvenient if SQL Developer would be broken under OS X for me! After some research I found that OS X Lion does not have a Java Runtime, and SQL Developer does need one.<\/p>\n<p>You might want to check your log files too. I found that SQL Developer generated a whopping 30 gigabytes of logfiles when it couldn&#8217;t find the java runtime.<\/p>\n<p>Installing is simple. Go to your terminal, enter <strong>java -version<\/strong> and press enter. Voila, OS X asks if you want to install the JRE. Of course you want to! Press Yes and you&#8217;re all set to go. Enjoy.<\/p>\n<!--CusAds0-->\n<div style=\"font-size: 0px; height: 0px; line-height: 0px; margin: 0; padding: 0; clear: both;\"><\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Last week I installed OS X Lion, which was great fun.
