Had the same problem in Ubuntu 13.04. Installed latest OpenJDK (1.7.0_25), but installer returned the message
I inspected the install.sh and found a variable JAVA_SPECIFICATION_VERSION that didn't seem to contain any value, probably because the com.code42.utils.JavaEnvironment class fails to load.
If you are absolutely sure that your Java-installation is OK, then you can read on.
The script compares the version list "1.5 1.6 1.7" against the previously mentioned variable, but since it doesn't contain anything (hence the empty parentheses in the error message) the script fails.
What I simply did to try to get CrashPlan installed was to add JAVA_SPECIFICATION_VERSION="1.7" below OKJAVA="1.5 1.6 1.7" in the script (line 21). Hadn't too much hope to get it installed properly after running install.sh, but the installation finished with no errors.
The client loads fine, and I can log in to my account and add files with no problems.
