 I had the same problem on OS X 10.10 (whatever it's code name is)

 Just installing a JDK from Su..er..Oracle didn't do the trick.  Instead:


 {{{
 $ sudo su
 Password:
 sh-3.2# ln -s
 /Library/Java/JavaVirtualMachines/jdk1.8.0_60.jdk/Contents/Home/
 /Library/Java/Home
 sh-3.2# ls -l !$
 ls -l /Library/Java/Home
 lrwxr-xr-x  1 root  wheel  64 Sep  4 16:39 /Library/Java/Home ->
 /Library/Java/JavaVirtualMachines/jdk1.8.0_60.jdk/Contents/Home/
 sh-3.2# exit
 tippy:~ davidherron$ sudo port install cassandra

 }}}

 The Cassandra installation fails for a different reason, FWIW.
