Installation on Linux

JAVA

The standard Linux distributions contain normally no preinstalled JDK (Java Development Kit from Oracle). Therefore you have first to install the original JDK 1.7 from Oracle.

In case you have installed the JDK from Oracle by downloading the “Java SE Development Kit” Kit” .tar.gz file  file please ensure that the PATH to the java JDK is available for all OS processesall OS processes. Therefore you should add the PATH to the binaries of the “Java SE Development Kit” to the following files (require root privileges):

  • /etc/environment

  • /etc/profile

Example for for /etc/environment:

Code Block
PATH="/usr/local/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin:/sbin:/bin:/usr/games:/usr/local/games<span style=" color: #F00;">:/java/jdk1.7.0_80/bin"

PATH="/usr/local/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin:/sbin:/bin:/usr/games:/usr/local/games<span style=" color: #F00;">:/java/jdk1.7.0_80/bin"

Example for for /etc/profile:

Code Block
if [ -d /etc/profile.d ]; then

for i in /etc/profile.d/*.sh; do if [ -r $i ]; then

. $i fi

done unset i

fi

PATH=$PATH:/java/jdk1.7.0_80/bin export PATH

if [ -d /etc/profile.d ]; then

for i in /etc/profile.d/*.sh; do if [ -r $i ]; then

. $i fi

done unset i

fi

PATH=$PATH:/java/jdk1.7.0_80/bin export PATH

Note: Depending  Depending on your Linux distribution it might be also necessary to set the environment variable variable JAVA_HOME which  which should point to the “Java SE Development Kit” main folder. Example:

Code Block
JAVA_HOME=/java/jdk1.7.0_80 export JAVA_HOME
