I'm new to Ubuntu

I tried this:

sudo add-apt-repository -y ppa:webupd8team/java
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install oracle-java9-installer

but it failed:

download failed
Oracle JDK 9 is NOT installed.
dpkg: error processing package oracle-java9-installer (--configure):
subprocess installed post-installation script returned error exit status >1
Errors were encountered while processing:
oracle-java9-installer
E: Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (1)

Can any one help me?

  • If you do it without -y, you will see that webupd8team recommend using java 8 as version 9 has issues. I installed java 8 using this method today & it worked fine (but I don't know how to solve your problem for java 9) – Zanna Apr 29 '16 at 16:16
  • thank u @Zanna but it fails either for 8!

    well, at least you have a different error - that is always progress ;) maybe try purging the ppa and starting again, or like they suggest on the site try downloading the tar then getting the installer – Zanna Apr 30 '16 at 07:52
  • Seems the file http://download.java.net/java/jdk9/archive/114/binaries/jdk-9-ea+114_linux-x64_bin.tar.gz is truncated at 58Mb – Andy Joiner May 07 '16 at 21:13
  • Are you still looking for an answer? Seems like this issue was localized... – Zanna Dec 23 '16 at 04:28
  • I have it, too. No idea what it is. – WitchCraft Jul 18 '17 at 21:06
