I have followed all the instructions stated at this question, but am encountering some problems with the last part of it.
I actually have version 6.22 of java and would like to update to version 6.30.
So after moving the extracted directory java-6-oracle
into /usr/lib/jvm
I do not know what to do, since the script that is pointed out in the answer above updates from java 5 to java 6.
For sake of clearness here is output if I do an ls
in dir /usr/lib/jvm
:
matteo@matteo-ThinkPad-SL:/usr/lib/jvm$ ls -l
total 8
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 14 2011-07-12 15:18 default-java -> java-6-openjdk
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 14 2011-07-12 12:19 java-1.6.0-openjdk -> java-6-openjdk
drwxr-xr-x 10 root root 4096 2012-04-12 12:06 java-6.31-oracle
drwxr-xr-x 7 root root 4096 2012-02-24 14:43 java-6-openjdk
What should I do now?
