When I try to make an new dBase file i get the following message.
"LibreOffice requires a Java runtime environment (JRE) to perform this
task. The selected JRE is defective. Please select another version or
install a new JRE and select it under LibreOffice - Preferences -
LibreOffice - Advanced.”
I next go to Preferences for LibreOffice 7.1.1.2 and choose Advanced
It is showing that there are two options to choose from. I pick
either of the following and “Apply"

Problem when running LibreOffice version 24:
Version 24 of LibreOffice under under preferences/advanced does not
recognize any of the Java versions i have installed and when i ADD the
path it tells me the following "The folder you selected does not
contain a Java runtime environment. Please select a different folder.”
I am not an programmer only wanting to make a simple dbase using
LibreOffice.
I trust you can help me get LibreOffice to recognize a Java so I can
work with it on my Mac.
I assume you are the guest who joined #libreoffice-qa (quality
assurance) channel on IRC today. I quote an answer that was given later:
buildbots use Eclipse temurin (adoptium) JDK - and the architecture
needs to match the architecture of LibreOffice. Apple silicon (aarch64)
LO --> you need aarch64 version of the JRE/JDK. And if you run a x86_64
build of LO via rosetta, you also need a x86_64 copy of the JRE/JDK.
