Hi John,

But now it's working fine :)

Thanks all (also Frank).

Thank you John Mcafee and Martin Reiner!

Martin, for asking the right question

John, for getting the right fix

I installed ARIS Express 2.4 using Java 7 update 25 (not having read about the problems associated with it). It had a few problems going through the install process (some glitches at the end) and then would not run. After doing a more thorough search I found the process to uninstall Java 7 and revert to Apple Java 6, but then the runtime did "not exist" for ARIS Express. This little module you programmed did the all time greatest fix. ARIS Express 2.4 is up and running on my MacBook Pro running OS X 10.8.4.

Thanks again!

If you had have Java 7 on MacOS you can force use Java 6 over terminal comand line like this

/System/Library/Frameworks/JavaVM.framework/Commands/javaws express.jnlp

Where /System/Library/Frameworks/JavaVM.framework/Commands/javaws is a java 6 executable file => there isn't need to switch java for whole system
