Step 1: Install Java Runtime

A Java Runtime Environment (JRE), version 1.7 or higher, is required. To find out what JRE version you have, open a command prompt and type in "java -version".

If Java 1.7 or higher is not available on your system, you can obtain it in the following places:

  • Windows: https://java.com
  • Linux: In the official software repository of your distribution.
  • OS X: https://java.com. Important: Even if you have an Apple M1 chip, you still need to install the Java runtime for the x64 architecture, not the one for ARM64.
