I don't use OSX.  But I would guess that the directory should be:

   /Library/Java/JavaVirtualMachines/jdk1.7.0_51.jdk/

The script is looking for files in common subdirectories like bin, lib,
jre, etc.  So, if you can poke around in there and find the parent
directory for those, then that will tell you the right path to set.
