I was installing Talend and I realised that Talend installation requires Java 1.7 or below but not any Java version above that. (as at the time of writing)

The installation quit straight away, giving a notification that it requires Java 1.7

These are the steps I followed to get Talend installation to succeed.

  1. First I checked the Java version currently running just to confirm by running the command java -version at the command prompt java version
  2. It was Java 1.8 so
  3. I uninstalled the Java 1.8 through the control panel.  (You can also simply delete the system variable path to the 1.8 from the Environmental System Variable)
  4. Next I restarted my PC
  5. I downloaded Java 1.7 from here: http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/java/javase/downloads/jdk7-downloads-1880260.html
  6. Choosing the windows 64 bit version as my PC is as such and installed itjava 1.7 windows 64
  7. Next I set the System Variable path to the new Java 1.7 installation by copying the bin path of the Java 1.7 installationjava installation bin folder
  8. Now I went to the System Environment Variables and added the new path there. java path system variable.PNG
  9. Now go to command prompt again and check java version. It should say 1.7.. now (you may have to restart to effect changes) java version after installation

    1. Hi VJ,
      Have checked the link again and it appears Oracle is discontinuing the Jave 7. I was trying to find my exe for you but it appears I have recycled it already, sorry. Maybe you might have to comb around the web perhaps someone might have the exe somewhere. Good luck.
