As a background:

I installed Fiji for Mac using the latest build. Running Fiji from Applications did not work because it could not load JVM 1.6 (I only found this by running Fiji command line, otherwise I would not get any error message or even a window, nothing).

Then I set my JAVA_HOME using /usr/libexec/java_home which in my case corresponds to jdk 1.8.

After this, Fiji runs properly except when trying to use the 3D viewer. Immediately I get the following error:

Exception in thread "J3D-Renderer-1" java.lang.UnsatisfiedLinkError: no jogl in java.library.path

Afterwards Fiji hangs.

I had updated the plugings including imageJ 3D suite.
