Download

Running

DBeaver requires Java (JRE) 1.8+ to run.

  • Windows and MacOS X installers include JRE so just use them and don’t think about internals.
  • On Linux you may need to install Java manually (usually by running sudo apt-get install openjdk-11-jdk or something similar).
  • If you don’t use installer (on Windows or Mac OS X) you may need to download Java (JDK) from Adopt OpenJDK web site.
