Installation of Particular Java version at Ubuntu
-
I have got the command from my friend for the installation of particular package at ubuntu..Example)
sudo apt-get install vsftpd=2.3.5-3ubuntu1.Like this how to install
java jre 1.7.0_65 at ubuntu.Can anyone know this command.I have tried the command as
sudo apt-get install javajre=1.7.0_653ubuntu1.
In that unable to locate package issue was found for the installation -
Apt-get won't help you here. You need to just go to Oracle's website, download the exact version of Java that you require for Linux, and run Oracle's installer. You are not able to use the Ubuntu package system for this.

Had to dig but I found the download.
The issue is I can't get wget to work on the download link. It wants you to use the website. Stupid Java...you still have never answered us in WHY you need THIS SPECIFIC VERSION of Java...

Can't you use OpenJDK? I believe it is compatible with Java.
-
Yes he did. It's a hard requirement. @thanksajdotcom

Here is the wget command for the 7u65 JDK which includes the JRE you are looking for:
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" -

I must have missed it.
Different thread, that's why. It had been asked and answered. This thread was just about download issues with this single file.

There is no apt-get command for it. You will need to use the wget command I referenced earlier. Which includes the JRE you are looking for.

There is no debian file that I know of. Just the tarball file that @coliver linked. Run his command and extract the files.
-
@thanksajdotcom Yes I have downloaded the coliver given command and downloaded the jdk,I have extracted the file and then the tried to install but it is not possible

What command did you run to install the jdk?
-
@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!
