Unable to switch to Java 1.6 on El Capitan

Question

I'm running the following command to try to switch to Java 1.6

$export JAVA_HOME=$(/usr/libexec/java_home -v 1.6)

But am getting the error

-bash: JAVA_HOME=/Library/Java/JavaVirtualMachines/1.6.0.jdk/Contents/Home: No such file or directory

Yet the directory in the error message does exist:

Answer 1

你必须保留前面的美元符号（ export而不是$export ）：

export JAVA_HOME=$(/usr/libexec/java_home -v 1.6)
