Dreamweaver – ‘You Need To Install The Legacy Java SE 6 Runtime’

Problem

I used to use Dreamweaver all the time, it was used to design and build the site and handle all the uploads etc. Since I moved to WordPress I don’t use is as much. But it’s still a great code editor so I still fire it up on occasion. At least I did until this started happening;

To open “dreamweaver” you need to install the legacy Java SE 6 runtime.
Click “More info…” to visit the legacy Java SE 6 download website.

Solution

I’m a bit twitchy about Java, I need to tread a fine line between keeping updated, and still having a version that works with my clients firewalls. The amount of times things have ‘smashed’ because Java has updated for me are numerous. Java can turn a 25 second job into a two hour job.

So the thought of ‘downgrading’ to version 6 was not one I relished. But thankfully, if you avoid the Sun Java site and install the Apple Legacy Java package everything continues to work.

If you’re still having problems, see this article.

GNS3 ASA Error – ‘ASDM did not recognize device model ASA5520’

Problem

Apart from the fact that’s an appalling spelling of recognise, I got bitten by this last weekend.

I don’t use the ADSM as a rule so it would not normally be a problem, the only thing I do use the ASDM for is certificates, (it’s just easier).

Solution

Last time I saw an error like this I had to use a fiddler script to embed the firewall model in the https traffic, however now there’s a much easier fix!

I had installed ASDM 7.1(3) that was giving me the error, if you simply downgrade to 7.1(1) the problem goes away.
