Java aches are back with LO7

users
#1

Have had a working and regularly upgraded LO6.x for quite a while now
using Oracle Java 12 and now 14.0.1 (MacOS Catalina)

Today I tried to move to LO7.0.0 and  BOINNNGGGGGG....   I have received
the dreaded message...

This says that my installed java is DEFECTIVE and I should install a
working version.

Of course, my java installation is working JUST FINE and has been
functional with OpenOffice and Zotero.

So, there is obviously something that was tweaked in LO7 that does not
like Oracle java 14.0.1.

What might that be, and where might one find the issue documented?

The docs do not say anything about LO7 ,

and also do not say anything about a version after JAVA 8

https://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Faq/General/InstallJava#Using_macOS

      Java version support

  * For LibreOffice prior to v.6.3, minimal supported Java version is 5
    (clarification needed about older support history).
  * For LibreOffice v.6.3, minimal supported Java version is 6
  * For LibreOffice v.6.4, minimal supported Java version is 8

Two open issues:
tdf#135479 -- LO Complains about missing JDK when accessing any Java
functionality, despite recognizing JDK on macOS under Preferences
<https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=135479> tdf#135462 --
LibreOffice 7.0.0.3 does not recognise JRE installation location at startup
other than those in /Library/Java/JavaVirtualMachines
<https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=135462>

If system is on default macOS Java path, then likely is the first...
