Steps
-
1
Check to see if your Ubuntu Linux operating system
architecture is 32-bit or 64-bit, open up a terminal and run the following
command below.
-
Type/Copy/Paste: file /sbin/init
- Note the bit version of your Ubuntu Linux operating system
architecture it will display whether it is 32-bit or 64-bit.
-
2
Check if you have Java installed on your
system. To do this, you will have to run the Java
version command from terminal.
- Open up a terminal and enter the following command:
-
Type/Copy/Paste: java -version
- If you have OpenJDK installed on your system it may look like this:
- java version "1.7.0_15"
OpenJDK Runtime Environment
(IcedTea6 1.10pre) (7b15~pre1-0lucid1)
OpenJDK 64-Bit
Server VM (build 19.0-b09, mixed mode)
- If you have OpenJDK installed on your system, you have the wrong vendor
version of Java installed for this exercise.
-
3
Completely remove the OpenJDK/JRE from your system and
create a directory to hold your Oracle Java JDK/JRE
binaries. This will prevent system conflicts and
confusion between different vendor versions of Java. For example, if you have
the OpenJDK/JRE installed on your system, you can remove it by typing the
following at the command line:
-
Type/Copy/Paste: sudo apt-get purge
openjdk-\*
- This command will completely remove OpenJDK/JRE from your
system
-
Type/Copy/Paste: sudo mkdir -p
/usr/local/java
- This command will create a directory to hold your Oracle Java JDK and
JRE binaries.
-
4
Download the Oracle Java JDK for
Linux. Make sure you select
the correct compressed
binaries for your system architecture 32-bit or 64-bit (which end in tar.gz).
- For example, if you are on Ubuntu Linux 32-bit operating system download
32-bit Oracle Java binaries.
- For example, if you are on Ubuntu Linux 64-bit operating system download
64-bit Oracle Java binaries.
- Optional, Download the Oracle Java JDK
Documentation
- Select jdk-7u45-apidocs.zip
-
Important Information: 64-bit Oracle
Java binaries do not work on 32-bit Ubuntu Linux operating systems, you will
receive multiple system error messages, if you attempt to install 64-bit
Oracle Java on 32-bit Ubuntu Linux.
-
5
Copy the Oracle Java binaries into the /usr/local/java
directory. In most cases, the Oracle Java binaries
are downloaded to: /home/"your_user_name"/Downloads.
-

instructions:
-
Type/Copy/Paste: cd
/home/"your_user_name"/Downloads
-
Type/Copy/Paste: sudo cp -r
jdk-7u45-linux-i586.tar.gz /usr/local/java
-
Type/Copy/Paste: cd
/usr/local/java
-
64-bit Oracle Java on 64-bit Ubuntu Linux installation
instructions:
-
Type/Copy/Paste: cd
/home/"your_user_name"/Downloads
-
Type/Copy/Paste: sudo cp -r
jdk-7u45-linux-x64.tar.gz /usr/local/java
-
Type/Copy/Paste: cd
/usr/local/java
-
6
Run the following commands on the downloaded Oracle Java
tar.gz files. Make sure to do this as root in order to make them
executable for all users on your system. To open a root terminal type sudo -s
you will be prompted for your logon password.
-
32-bit Oracle Java on 32-bit Ubuntu Linux installation
instructions:
-
Type/Copy/Paste: sudo chmod a+x
jdk-7u45-linux-i586.tar.gz
-
64-bit Oracle Java on 64-bit Ubuntu Linux installation
instructions:
-
Type/Copy/Paste: sudo chmod a+x
jdk-7u45-linux-x64.tar.gz
-
7
Unpack the compressed Java binaries, in the directory
/usr/local/java
-
32-bit Oracle Java on 32-bit Ubuntu Linux installation
instructions:
-
Type/Copy/Paste: sudo tar xvzf
jdk-7u45-linux-i586.tar.gz
-
64-bit Oracle Java on 64-bit Ubuntu Linux installation
instructions:
-
Type/Copy/Paste: sudo tar xvzf
jdk-7u45-linux-x64.tar.gz
-
8
Double-check your
directories. At this point, you should have two
uncompressed binary directories in /usr/local/java for the Java JDK/JRE listed
as:
-
Type/Copy/Paste: ls -a
- jdk1.7.0_45
-
9
Edit the system PATH file /etc/profile and add the
following system variables to your system path. Use
nano, gedit or any other text editor, as root, open up /etc/profile.
-
Type/Copy/Paste: sudo gedit
/etc/profile
- or
-
Type/Copy/Paste: sudo nano
/etc/profile
-
10
Scroll down to the end of the file using your arrow keys
and add the following lines below to the end of your /etc/profile
file:
-
Type/Copy/Paste:
JAVA_HOME=/usr/local/java/jdk1.7.0_45
PATH=$PATH:$HOME/bin:$JAVA_HOME/bin
export JAVA_HOME
export PATH
-
11
Save the /etc/profile file and exit.
-
12
Inform your Ubuntu Linux system where your Oracle Java
JDK/JRE is located. This will tell the system that
the new Oracle Java version is available for use.
-
Type/Copy/Paste: sudo
update-alternatives --install "/usr/bin/java" "java"
"/usr/local/java/jdk1.7.0_45/bin/java" 1
- this command notifies the system that Oracle Java JRE is available for
use
-
Type/Copy/Paste: sudo
update-alternatives --install "/usr/bin/javac" "javac"
"/usr/local/java/jdk1.7.0_45/bin/javac" 1
- this command notifies the system that Oracle Java JDK is available for
use
-
Type/Copy/Paste: sudo
update-alternatives --install "/usr/bin/javaws" "javaws"
"/usr/local/java/jdk1.7.0_45/bin/javaws" 1
- this command notifies the system that Oracle Java Web start is
available for use
-
13
Inform your Ubuntu Linux system that Oracle Java JDK/JRE
must be the default Java.
-
Type/Copy/Paste: sudo
update-alternatives --set java /usr/local/java/jdk1.7.0_45/bin/java
- this command will set the java runtime environment for the
system
-
Type/Copy/Paste: sudo
update-alternatives --set javac /usr/local/java/jdk1.7.0_45/bin/javac
- this command will set the javac compiler for the system

- this command will set Java Web start for the
system
-
14
Reload your system wide PATH /etc/profile by typing the
following command:
-
Type/Copy/Paste: . /etc/profile
- Note your system-wide PATH /etc/profile file will reload after reboot of
your Ubuntu Linux system
-
15
Test to see if Oracle Java was installed correctly on
your system. Run the following commands and note
the version of Java:
-
16
