How to install Sun�s Java sdk on Debian woody.
This is my personal experience on how you should go about installing
Sun�s Sdk on woody linux. First of all we must forget about using apt-get
because there�s no good way of installing this way with sun, www.blackdown.org
has a method but it doesn�t work with the woody version of linux.
First we�ll need the following file:
j2sdk-1_4_1_01-linux-i586.bin
Which we can download from http://java.sun.com , remember this is the
SDK, not the JRE.
If we want an easy installation we will save this file to /usr/local/bin. This
way we won�t have to create new paths.
When the file�s downloaded we�ll have to execute it, type:
$ /.j2sdk-1_4_1_01-linux-i586.bin
or
$ bash j2sdk-1_4_1_01-linux-i586.bin
We will have to read the contract, if we accept it we�ll type �yes� and
the installation will begin. Now we�ll have a new directory in /usr/local/bin
which is the directory with the name j2sdk1.4.1_01.
We will now create the necessary links typing this into the console:
$ ln -s /usr/local/bin/j2sdk1.4.1_01/bin* /usr/bin
And it�s done! We can now type:
$ java -version
And we will be able to see the sun product version. We have
successfully installed sun�s SDK on a woody linux system.
