Why can't I install Oracle Java 6? - Ask Ubuntu


i'm trying install java 6 jre on ubuntu 16.04.

as have done many times before, did:

sudo add-apt-repository ppa:webupd8team/java sudo apt-get update sudo apt-get install oracle-java6-installer

... gave me error:

does know if oracle's java 6 gone forever?

i guess i'm going go openjdk source maybe knows of workaround oracle java?

yes, it's gone forever unless have support contract oracle.

java 6 no longer provided general public oracle because it reached end-of-life way in february 2013, can't download oracle unless have support contract oracle, allows manually download (after logging in) until december 2018.

i'd recommend using java 8 or later. still gets security updates, , compile , run java 6 programs fine. if need compile run on java 6 jvm, you need add -target 1.6 javac line.
