Remote access for my company relies on Java, as I sign into my remote desktop I am getting an internal MFC error out of Java. Worked fine before the OS upgrade. Any ideas ?
Mac mini, iOS 10
What did your IT department tell you?
Is it HOBLink JWT that you are trying to use by any chance? I have Java 8 Update 101 (and also tried 102), and I get a crash when hitting a modifier key, such as shift, control, etc. A pop-up box comes up with 'Internal Error' and three options (buttons), 'Show Details', 'Crash', and 'Continue'. If I look at the details that it's a nullPointerException in Java. I am not sure if this is a machine or OS issue, but I had not seen this on OS X 10.11 (on the Late 2012 Mac Mini in question), or on my MacBook Pro or MacBook Air. I have not updated those laptops yet so I don't know if they would do the same. My company uses HOBLink JWT 3.3.0819.
I have the same Problem with our Oracle Database that use Java. Since the Update to Sierra I receive the following Error when i use the Shift or Ctrl Key:

Java 6 is not supported on macOS Sierra.
I use Java 8 Update 101 and it was working on El Capitan 😟 I still try it also with Java 8 Update 102 but the Problem is still exist
Who's using Java 6? I believe we are talking about Oracle Java 8 (101 and 102 - I tried both).
Incidentally I have installed a fresh copy of Sierra on a separate partition and the issue occurs. I can get it to crash by changing the Java settings to always show the console, then use the java.com site to check the Java version. When the console pops up I hit shift and get the dialog that eapfelstaedt gets. So it looks like either there is a general issue, or it's specific Mac hardware. I suggest the latter because the net is now awash with complaints about this issue. It also looks like it's not necessarily HOBLink JWT, but java and/or macOS 10.12 in general.
eapfelstaedt- what's the hardware you are using? I'm having issues on a Late 2012 Mac Mini, but will try to upgrade a six month old MacBook Air soon and see if that also crashes. However, it's taking an age to complete a TimeMachine backup at the moment so I may not get that done for a couple of days.
I use a 2 Month old MacBook Pro (Retina, 15', Mitte 2015)
If you have room on your external, I recommend making a clone backup.
Create a Clone backup:
A clone is an exact bootable copy of your internal drive. Unlike standard copying of all files to another drive, the clone software copies hidden files along with other in-use files that are not available when you copy over files to another drive.

SuperDuper has an option that allows you to clone alongside Time Machine but it's advised that you create a separate partition for the clone.
Thanks. HOBLink JWT = yes.
exact same error msg.
OK, so we have the i7 processor in common. I will be upgrading a MacBook Air with an i5 soon, and that will be a further test to attempt to rule out hardware.
As I mentioned earlier, if this is an issue for all Macs running Sierra then I are surprised that there is not more noise about it.
My "IT Department" (of a global organisation with 150,000 employees) has said that Sierra is not supported for now. It would also advise we use Windows.
Does no other Users have this Problem with Java? 😕

Why not use Disk Utility? More reliable and it comes with every Mac :-)
You can use SuperDuper for free forever if you do an erase and clone. If you purchase you can create smart backups and schedule. SuperDuper has never charged for an upgrade.
