DBeaver requires Java 1.8 or higher. Windows installers include JRE 1.8.
If you are NOT on Windows you have to setup Java.
If you are on Mac OS X then you will need JDK 1.8+.
Note: 3rd-party JDBC drivers may have have their own system requirements.
Windows executables are signed with code sign certificate. It was released specifically for DBeaver by InterTechGeo LLC (our partner).
Install:
ZIP archive – extract archive and run “dbeaver” executable. Do not extract archive over previous version (remove previous version before install). Java 1.8+ must be installed separately.
Windows installer – run installer executable. It will automatically upgrade version (if needed). Installer doesn’t change any system settings or Java installation. Included JRE will be accessible only for DBeaver.
MacOS DMG – just run it and drag-n-drop DBeaver into Applications. Make sure you have Java 1.8 installed. On reinstall do the same (your settings won’t be lost).
Debian package – run sudo dpkg -i dbeaver-<version>.deb. Then execute “dbeaver &”.
RPM package – run sudo rpm -ivh dbeaver-<version>.rpm. Then execute “dbeaver &”. Note: to upgrade use “-Uvh” parameter.
Upgrade – don’t be afraid to remove previous DBeaver version – your settings won’t be lost. All settings are kept in separate folder (.dbeaver4 in user home)
Java notes: if you are on Linux or MacOS you need to setup Java separately. Java 1.8+ must be the default Java version. To validate this run “java -version” in terminal window.

Notes:
DBeaver is free software. You can use it for any purpose with no limitations. This software is provided “as is” without express or implied warranty.
Windows Installer will automatically install DBeaver on your computer. Java Runtime will be installed as a part of DBeaver installation. If you already have JRE installed on your computer you may disable JRE option in installer. However it is recommended to use JRE shipped with DBeaver (it won’t be break any existing JRE installation, nothing will be copied in system folders, registry or environment variables).
Debian installer will setup all required components (including JRE) prior to DBeaver installation.
All other versions are just minimal archives that don’t contain the JRE or an installer. Just unzip and start dbeaver executable (if you upgrade from a previous DBeaver version then delete it before upgrade).
