    To download the application use the this link https://www.oracle.com/in/java/technologies/javase/javase8-archive-downloads.html

  • Accept the license agreement and make sure you download the correct file basing on your operating system, whether its x32 or x64 bit.

Note: If you are unsure about the version please follow this guide http://update.se.wtb.tue.nl/documentation/install/manual-java.html

  • It is recommended to download the executable file (.exe) for a simpler run

  • Execute the downloaded file, accept the license agreement and follow the instructions in the wizard, installing in default installation directories.

You can install the OpenJDK on it's own as a package

sudo apt-get install openjdk-8-jdk

or automatically as a dependency of Tomcat

sudo apt-get install tomcat7
