Since OS X 10.7 Java is not (pre-)installed anymore, let’s fix that. As I’m writing this, Java 11.0.4 is the latest version and AdoptOpenJDK is one of the best places to find Prebuilt OpenJDK Binaries.Easy to follow details about how to install OpenJDK are available here. However, the easiest way is to select OpenJDK 11 (LTS), the HotSpot JVM, and macOS x64, which will expose two option.

If you download the .tar.gz for OpenJDK 11 directly from http://jdk.java.net/11/, there’s no obvious installation instructions (at least that I could find) on the OpenJDK website or in the .gz file. If you’ve done any fiddling with different JDK versions on MacOS before, you’ve probably come across the ‘/usr/libexec/java_home’ utility, which composes a number of useful things relating to the JDK that you’re currently using in your PATH. Click here for my previous article about this utility and answers to this StackOverflow post, which includes one of the most extensive and useful guides to running different JDK versions on MacOS that I’ve seen.

/usr/libexec/java_home: This will show you where the current JDK home is, for example:

/usr/libexec/java_home -V: This lists all installed JDKs, which is shown below:

To switch between JDKs, use /usr/libexec/java_home -v version (e.g. 10):

Knowing that your available JDKs are installed to /Library/Java/JavaVirtualMachines/ by default, moving the contents of the downloaded OpenJDK 11 dir from inside the .gz file to the same location would make sense.

Once you’ve moved it there, java_home -V now shows the new JDK in place:

Updating my aliases to quickly switch versions in my .bash_profile, I now have:

Sourcing the .bash_profile (source .bash_profile) and then running each alias, now I’ve got OpenJDK 11 set up and ready to go!

Question & Answer

Question

How do I perform a silent installation of IBM SPSS Statistics for Macintosh OSX Sierra 10.12.x?There are two ways to install Statistics 24 on Macintosh operating systems (Supported platforms for this release are Apple Macintosh Yosemite (10.10.x), El Capitan (10.11.x) and Sierra (10.12.x).

Cause

A) If you would like to install release 24 interactively see the video: Installing IBM SPSS Statistics 24 for Mac OS
B) If you would like to perform a silent installation of SPSS Statistics 24 on Macintosh OSX Sierra, see below steps.
If you like to perform a silent installation on Mac 10.10.x and 10.11.x see Technote 1979609 instead.
In general please refer to the installation material available on IBM SPSS Statistics 24 Documentation web page.

Answer

Performing a silent installation of IBM SPSS Statistics 24 on Macintosh OSX 10.12 Sierra
1. Please verify if Java is installed on the machine. See Release notes - IBM SPSS Statistics 24.0.
If Java is not installed on the Macintosh machine you may get an error upon silent installation
on Mac OS 10.10 or later: 'No Java runtime present, requesting install'.
To find out which Java version is installed on the Mac click Apple symbol – System Preferences and open the Java Control Panel
For silent installation it is a prerequisite to have first Java JDK installed in order for silent installation to work on MacOSX 10.12 Sierra.
To get to the Java JDK download page, you can navigate to it from Oracle Java website
a. Go to https://www.java.com/en/
b. Select 'Download'
c. Select 'See All Java downloads'
d. Select 'Looking for the JDK?'
e. Select 'Go to JDK downloads' under 'Where do I get JDK download', which takes you here:
http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/java/javase/downloads/index-jsp-138363.html#javasejdk
f. Select Download button under JDK for Java SE 8u121
g. Select the Download file for Mac OS X
h. Or the Download page for the latest JDK (Java SE 8u121) is here:
http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/java/javase/downloads/jdk8-downloads-2133151.html
After download start the installer file jdk-8u121-macosx-x64.dmg and follow the instructions on the screen. It is important to install under the Administrator user account.
Install Java for all users.
2. Please make sure you download the correct file for the silent installation:
In your list of available downloads locate: IBM SPSS Statistics Client 24.0 Mac OS Silent Multilingual (CND2FML ).
The file name for this package is SPSS_Statistics_24_mac_silent.dmg.
The packageIBM SPSS Statistics Client 24.0 Mac OS Multilingual (CND2EML )
is for interactive installation only. The file name for the interactive installer is: SPSS_Statistics_24_mac.dmg
3. Copy the file SPSS_Statistics_24_mac_silent.dmg on the Macintosh computer where you like to install . For example copy it into a new folder or the desktop.
4. Unpack the *.dmg file into this folder or onto the desktop.

5. You should see two files: SPSS_Statistics_Installer.bin and installer.properties
Copy both files to a folder from where you would like to install or to the desktop of the MAC.
It is important that the file installer.properties is placed in the same folder as the installer *.bin file SPSS_Statistics_Installer.bin.
Installer.properties is the options file you can edit is to run the installation wizard in silent mode.
This lets you specify wizard settings without having to run the installation wizard in graphical or console mode.
On below example all files are copied to the desktop:
6. Open Installer.properties file in a Text Editor (for example TextEdit.app on Finder – Applications) and edit it for your needs.
Property Parameters that can be changed are:
a) Installation directory:
#USER_INSTALL_DIR=<value>
This parameter property is optional and not active by default. The installation is therefore performed on default path:
/Applications/IBM/SPSS/Statistics/24 for Mac
If you want to change the directory remove the # and define another subdirectory of the /Applications menu. It is recommended to use the default
installation directory.
b) Authorization code:
If this property is specified, the product is authorized automatically using the authorization code. If this property is not specified,
you must run the License Authorization Wizard to authorize manually. If you like to use multiple authorization codes, separate them by colons
(for example, authcode1:authcode2).
###AUTHCODE=<value>
If you like to license automatically you need to use your 20 digit authorization code ready. A valid internet connection must be established before you start
the silent installation. Example code:
AUTHCODE=66abcdefghi22abcdefg

c) Installation of Python and the Python Essentials
By default Python is installed automatically (option 1 on below parameter):
InstallPython=1
#InstallPython=0
d) Network License LSHOST
If you use a network license you need to enter the IP address or the host name of the computer where the Network License manager is running on
LSHOST parameter instead of using the AUTHCODE parameter above.
LSHOST=
e) Commuter license checkout
The parameter where you can define the number of days the commuter license can be checked out. Do not comment out this setting.
It must always specify a value. Default number of days is 7.
COMMUTE_MAX_LIFE=7
f) Proxy User
Finally you can define the proxy user parameter if needed. See different options for this parameter on installer.properties file.
Save the file with same name installer.properties.

7. After you edited installer.properties file open Terminal.app (Finder – Applications – Utilities – Terminal.app).
Change directory to where you copied the installer file SPSS_Statistics_Installer_Silent.bin and the edited installer.properties file and start
the installation by the command below.
sudo ./SPSS_Statistics_Installer.bin -f installer.properties
On the example below the files were copied to the desktop. When prompted enter your sudo user ID and password to start the silent installation
of IBM SPSS Statistics 24.
In the 24 folder you should see below content. Double click on SPSSStatistics to launch the application. If you haven't inserted your authorization code into
the installer.properties file, you can launch the license Authorization Wizard after the silent installation to license the software.
