@pokemonmaster70007 It's a pass so it won't show up on the terminal but you are typing it.

that's good but how can i install jdk on ubuntu from bin file

[MyLine1996]

You have to be root. For example : addi@ubuntu:~$ sudo -s

[sudo] password for addi: (Your normal password)

root@ubuntu:~# apt-get install sun-java6-jre

and then it will be install.

at 4:28 what do i have to type?

[Leann022001]

I was doing this right and when it got to the configuring part ( in your video that is about the 1:54) I did not know how to click ok. So I just closed it out. Now when I go back into the terminal and try again, it say

E: dpkg was interrupted, you must manually run 'sudo dpkg --configure -a' to correct the problem.

How do I do this, I don't know how? Please help, thanks

[Weeman4013]

@Leann022001 to press ok press one of the arrows then it will highlight it and press enter

[elcispop]

Ok,i got past that, but you lost me at 4:23

[elcispop]

I'm having the same issue as BradleyComputerHelp.

Anyone know how to get past this?

[BradleyComputerHelp]

every time i type sudo apt-get install sun-java6-jre and whatever, i get the password thing, then i get: E: dpkg was interrupted, you must manually run 'dpkg --configure -a' to correct the problem.

and then i try what it says it do (dpkg --configure -a) it says:

dpkg: requested operation requires superuser privilege

what do i do????

[ubuntunoobz]

put sudo in front of it then give your pass word this makes u a superuser. or just type su then root password. if u havent set one then type sudo passwd then set root password. gl

[NajanJan]

thanks anyway :)

[atluschooty]

thanks man this helped me alot

[Pablos544]

As a user horribly rooted to the M$ coorporation it is confidence booster to *know* that it is easy to install software on Ubuntu using apt-get. It gave me strength to know why I needed Java installed on my system, although this information is probably obvious to many. I now know that compiling programs in Java using Ubuntu can be easy. Thanks a lot. Keep 'em coming :)

[Loki8901]

hmm i need simple easy way to istall it

[ebruzzone]

sorry to bother but I am desperate with JRE.I have Hardy heron and the latest release of Firefox 3.0. thing is that I already "installed" sudo apt-get install sun-java6-jre and I get: sun-java6-jre is already the newest version.

0 upgraded, 0 newly installed, 0 to remove and 0 not upgraded.

the issue is that wether I can watch youtube there are some websites that still requires me to install JRE. Do you have any idea what is going on ? THANKS!

[hassanyjohn]

i did that and now its saying the java is corrupt wtf

[ak47dogg]

how do you install java on fedora (i'm a noob)

plz help me

[RICEFREAK]

What did you press when you were in "OPERATING SYSTEM DISTRIBUTOR LICENSE AGREMMENT"??

[imsureaboutthat]

how to open the thing u type command in (shell)¨?????????+

[Rangedcl0ne]

do u have to download something before u can install it with the command? i have the same operating system as you

[francastillo86]

nope, you just need to type the command

"sudo apt-get install sun-java6-jre"

as the guy said below, and ubuntu will download and install the application itself

[Hellow54321]

What is the command to apt-get the java that you was using?

[cgermany77]

The command to install java was:

"sudo apt-get install sun-java6-jre"

Sorry, YouTube compresses the MP4 files I upload, blurring them. I'm looking for a better video format.

[mlanonymous]

@cgermany77 it doesn't work it says in exact words "Package sun-java6-jre is not available, but is referred to by another package.

This may mean that the package is missing, has been obsoleted, or

is only available from another source

E: Package sun-java6-jre has no installation candidate"

do I need to download somthing first before I install this?

[alanibanez]

@mlanonymous I get the same thing, did you figured out how to install it? If yes please help.

[mlanonymous]

@alanibanez actually I just gave up on it.. instead, I found that in the software packages source....

[alanibanez]

@mlanonymous The thing is that I am unable to install limewire if I dont have java installed. Thanks.
