JRE
JRE on 32-bit and 64-bit Debian / Ubuntu / Mint Linux operating systems.
End users looking for java to run software are looking for JRE. OpenJRE / OpenJDK is an alternative to Oracle Java that is the default on packaged linux systems such as Ubuntu / Kbuntu / Mint.
Are you 32 or 64 bit? Type:
uname -m
Have you downloaded Oracle Java? as of TOR you could find it [ here ] and the file you need is/was called [ ]
Adjust any version numbers to accommodate your system, otherwise instructions assume currents as of TOR: typically OpenJDK version 7. To REMOVE OpenJDK and install Oracle Java JRE do the following.
1. remove OpenJDK
sudo apt-get autoremove openjdk-7-jre
2. confirm complete removal (other instructions online do not accomplish this ie WikiHow)
sudo java -version
You should see the error: No such file or directory <- that is good!
3. make a home
sudo mkdir /usr/local/java
4.
