A step by step instructions to install Java JDK on MacOS Catalina or Mac OS X with JAVAHOME configuration. Contents to add.bashprofile: export JAVA. However, the easiest way is to select OpenJDK 11 (LTS), the HotSpot JVM, and macOS x64, which will expose two option like these: Clicking on “Install JDK installer”, will download the OpenJDK installer package, e.g. OpenJDK11U-jdkx64machotspot11.0.411.pkg, which when executed, will install into this location: /Library/Java. I am trying to install the latest FRD on my Mac's Catalina v.10.15.5. FRD says it needs to install eariler Java SE 6, so I download it and try to install - Mac OS refuses to install earlier Java saying 'can't install on your hard disk since the newer Java version is already installed' - deadlock) The installed Java version reports the following. This is my first MAC ever and I'm still trying to get the hang of navigating my way around. Anyway, I'm also new to Java and I've been practicing on my Windows PC before it permanently died. Now that I'm on this MAC, I installed my JDK and now I need to set the JAVAHOME environment variable. I have no idea what to do. Changes introduced with macOS 10.15 (Catalina) cause certain Java applications to behave incorrectly. Therefore, we cannot certify any JDK version on macOS 10.15 yet. However, as of now, you can install and run non-notarized software on macOS 10.15 systems by modifying your security preferences.
Before You Begin
- Mac OS X 10.8 or higher
- Ensure that you have Administrator privileges on the system.
- Ensure that you have 350 MB free on your computer's hard drive.
- If you are logged into SAPgui, log off and 'Quit' the SAPgui application.
- If you have an SAP folder on your hard drive within the Applications folder, make a note of the name of the folder. You will be able to revert to the prior version if necessary.

Pre-Installation Instructions
A. SAPgui and Kerberos Tickets
Acquire Kerberos tickets. Tickets are required to connect to SAP systems
- SAPgui may bring up the Ticket Viewer to prompt you to obtain Kerberos tickets. If not:
- You may see an error mentioning 'GSS-API'
- SAPgui may stall at 'Connecting...'
- Your SAPgui session may freeze.
All of these behaviors mean that either you do not have Kerberos tickets, or your Kerberos tickets have expired. To resolve that issue, use the instruction below to get tickets manually.
- How to get Kerberos tickets manually
- Launch Kerberos Ticket Viewer (/Applications/Utilities/Ticket Viewer). On Mac OS Catalina it is located in (/System/Library/CoreServices/Applications)
- Enter your Kerberos username (the first part of your @mit.edu email address), and your Kerberos password (the password used to check your @mit.edu email).
- If You cannot find the Ticket Viewer app (Catalina OS) then (re)install the Java JDK, reboot and it should show up.
NOTE: Your Kerberos tickets will last for 10 hours only, and have to be manually renewed if you wish to remain in SAP longer. If you do wish to remain in SAP longer than 10 hours, it's a good idea to renew them at least 20 minutes or so before they expire.
B. Ensure Kerberos Extras is installed
