Installing java on CentOS

You’d think it would be harder, but it’s not. Not that it’s documented well anywhere, which is why I’m writing this.

  1. Go to java.com.
  2. Download the linux RPM installer for your cpu type.
  3. sh /path/to/downloaded.rpm.bin
  4. follow the bouncing ball.

And that’s it.


[mycentosvm:~] root# java -version
java version "1.6.0_06"
Java(TM) SE Runtime Environment (build 1.6.0_06-b02)
Java HotSpot(TM) 64-Bit Server VM (build 10.0-b22, mixed mode)
