bobbybosler​ El Capitan and above kinda blocks us from editing that stuff (system integrity protection), but there's a way around it: sudo nvram boot-args="rootless=0" (note: angled/comma quotes, e.g. “, won't work) nvram boot-args (to confirm) sudo reboot (wait for reboot) sudo mkdir -p /System/Library/Java/JavaVirtualMachines/1.6.0.jdk (if you get an error**) sudo mkdir /System/Library/Java/Support/Deploy.bundle (same if error**) sudo nvram -d boot-args (reboot whenever to change back) **boot to recovery mode by holding command + "r" at the gong (release once you catch the status bar growing), then in the Utilities menu, run Terminal, and then run "csrutil disable" and "reboot" (and regular boot), then in your normal terminal, run the mkdir command (then at some point, reboot to recovery mode and "csrutil enable") also assuming you installed java se 8 from java.com; or, maybe you can save yourself the above hassle and just get the old java from Apple (link works as of this writing, but I'm a fan of new, so I didn't test): http://support.apple.com/downloads/DL1572/en_US/javaforosx.dmg
