You know,If you want to develop java applications ,you’d better install jdk.
Today,I will introduce you how to intall jdk1.6 on Ubuntu.Just follow me step by step.
First step
you should download jdk file from sun offcial website,
URL: http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/java/javase/downloads/jdk-6u29-download-513648.html (fixed)
fileName : jdk-6u29-linux-i586.bin
Tips: 1)Before you will download this file ,you should accept license agreement.
2)If your system is Ubuntu10.4 or other 32-bit system,you can’t download the jdk-6u29-linux-x64.bin.When you use sudo sh jdk-6u29-linux-x64.bin,it will create a file that file’s name is invalid encoding.
Second step
after file is donwloaded,we also can use command
shell代码:
ls
to scan the file list.
Third step
OK,now we can install jdk,write command :
shell代码:
sudo sh jdk-6u29-linux-i586.bin
A few miniutes later,you will be asked to press Enter key,Just do, You will see ‘Done’.
Ok,Now jdk has been instaled by us，next step we will config environment variables for java
Fourth step
enter the command :
Shell 代码:
sudo gedit /etc/environment
if you are similar with vim,you can use the command :
Shell 代码:
sudo vi /etc/environment
Add the following lines in the end of file.
Shell 代码:
export JAVA_HOME=/home/alicus/Downloads/jdk1.6.0_29
export JRE_Home=>/home/alicus/Downloads/jdk1.6.0_29/jre
export CLASSPATH=$CLASSPATH:$JAVA_HOME/lib:$JRE_HOME/lib
then enter command :
Shell 代码:
source ~/.bashrc
it makes the changes effective
Fifth Step
You should know Ubuntu10.4 make the openjdk as its default jdk ,so we should make sun jdk to be
the default one,just use following commands :
Shell 代码:
sudo update-alternatives –install /usr/bin/java java /home/alicus/Downloads/jdk1.6.0_29/bin/java 300
sudo update-alternatives –install /usr/bin/java java /home/alicus/Downloads/jdk1.6.0_29/bin/javac 300
use following command to scan the jdk priority:
Shell 代码:
sudo update-alternatives –config java
Tips: sudo update-alternatives — install is used to change the priority.
OK!Now you can enter
Shell 代码:
java -version
to test if jdk is ok.
If you can see java version “1.6.0_29″,Congratulations!!
