Installation of Particular Java version at Ubuntu

thanksajdotcom

@scottalanmiller I need jre1.7.0_65 version.I am using ubuntu 14.04 LTS 64 Bit.So I need a debian file of jre.Can anyone know????

There is no debian file that I know of. Just the tarball file that @coliver linked. Run his command and extract the files.

What command did you run to install the jdk?

Lakshmana

@scottalanmiller The file I was downloaded was .tar.gz.Then I have extracted the file and then I have used dpkg -i command with the extracted file and there are many files are present but there is no .deb file at this file

That doesn't answer the question. What command did you run?

We already discussed in the thread that this is not a DEB file and using dpkg is not an option. Why are you doing that at all?

There is an installer IN the tarball that you just unpacked. Just run it!

Actually there isn't. Just FYI.

Huh? What do you mean? The installer is missing?

@thanksajdotcom Sorry I have replied for Scott,AJ.Now I have used the wget command given by coliver and the download of the file has done and then I extracted the file and tried to install by dpkg -i jdk 1.7.0._65 file but it showed me the error to login as sudo user.But I have also done at root but also same error with permission denied is shown.I came to home now I will give you the screenshort of the error after going to office

thanksajdotcom

So what you need to do is this: (DO THIS EXACTLY)

cd /tmp
wget --no-check-certificate --no-cookies - --header "Cookie: oraclelicense=accept-securebackup-cookie" "http://download.oracle.com/otn-pub/java/jdk/7u65-b17/jdk-7u65-linux-x64.tar.gz"
tar -xvzf jdk-7u65-linux-x64.tar.gz
mv jdk1.7.0_65/ /usr/local/
cd ~
vi .profile

Now place the following lines in your .profile file.

export JAVA_HOME=/usr/local/jdk1.7.0_65
export PATH=$PATH:$JAVA_HOME/bin

Now log out and log back in. That should be it.

You are correct, it's just a tarball. That's SO easy.

thanksajdotcom

Please tell me you know how to use vi...If not, after you type:

 vi .profile

Hit the "I" key (that's the letter i ) and then paste those two lines shown. Then hit Esc, followed by :wq and hit Enter.

Just checked. I downloaded and unpacked myself. What do you want now? You've already installed it. There is nothing more to do. You have your Java already.

But WHY are you running dpkg? We keep telling you that you can't do that. This is not a Debian package. The installation is already done. You can stop now.

None needed, he has already installed it. He just doesn't believe it or something.

Because he doesn't listen. I've posted EXACT VERBOSE instructions. If he copy/pastes those exactly, he cannot screw up...
