--- Comment #31 from Alex Thurgood <iplaw67 at tuta.io> ---
In current production release versions (6152 and 6203), the annoying problem of
Java detection (or lack thereof) has come back, albeit in a slightly different
form, with OpenJDK11.


Currently using : macOS 10.14.3

I have downloaded and copied the untarred package (jdk-11.jdk) to 

/Library/Java/JavaVirtualMachines/

I then started LO6152, and under Preferences - Advanced, I added the path to
the JDK, which was found by LO's detection routine and added to the list. I
activated the radio button and then shut down LO. So far so good.

If I now start LO6203, and load up a JDBC configured database file, e.g. a
connection to mysql via a JDBC driver, I get an error message after having
authenticated my user against the database :

"The configuration of LibreOffice has been changed. Under LibreOffice -
Preferences - LibreOffice - Advanced, select the Java execution environment
that you want LibreOffice to use" (translated from the French).

then the following message :

"No Java installation could be found"

I then have to go through the rigmarole of redefining my JDK11 as the selected
environment, in order to continue working with my ODB file.

If I close LO6203 and switch back to LO6152, I get asked the same question
again, when I load up a database requiring any kind of Java instantiation
(hsqldb, or any wizard function that relies on Java).
