In the terminal, grab Java 5 and unpack it. Command is as below:
cd /tmp/
curl -o java.1.5.0-leopard.tar.gz http://www.cs.washington.edu/homes/isdal/snow_leopard_workaround/java.1.5.0-leopard.tar.gz
tar -xvzf java.1.5.0-leopard.tar.gz -
Execute the command below to move Java 5 to your System java folder:
sudo mv 1.5.0 /System/Library/Frameworks/JavaVM.framework/Versions/1.5.0-leopard -
Execute the command below to make Java 5 as the dedicated java 5.
cd /System/Library/Frameworks/JavaVM.framework/Versions/
sudo rm 1.5.0
sudo ln -s 1.5.0-leopard 1.5.0
sudo rm 1.5
sudo ln -s 1.5.0 1.5
-
Open Java Preferences with the commands below:
open "/Applications/Utilities/Java Preferences.app" -
Make "J2SE 5.0 32-bit" to be the default JVM for Java applications. Select J2SE 5.0 32-bit in the Java Applications list first.
Then drag it to the top of the list.
