Thread: Java Installation


how know if version of ubuntu has java installed?

, if find not, how install it?

open terminal (applications->accessories) , run following:

dpkg -l | grep java

show versions of java packages have installed, if any. if nothing shows up, run 1 of following:

sudo apt-get install sun-java6-plugin (firefox plugin, installs jre)
sudo apt-get install sun-java6-jre (just jre, can run java stuff)
sudo apt-get install sun-java6-jdk (installs jdk in addition jre, can compile java stuff)

there closer-to-foss alternatives (openjdk-6-jre , variants, icedtea6-plugin) if sun eula bothers you, i've never tried them.
