Installing Java 1.5 on Ubuntu?
- by StackedCrooked
I already have Java 1.6, but I need to test something with 1.5.
I have downloaded the .bin file from http://java.sun.com/javase/downloads/index_jdk5.jsp using the Sun Download Manager.
Now I want to create a deb file from this bin file:
$ fakeroot make-jpkg java_ee_sdk-5_01-linux.bin
Creating temporary directory: /tmp/make-jpkg.Zpm1Y7LbZ0
Loading plugins: blackdown-j2re.sh blackdown-j2sdk.sh common.sh ibm-j2re.sh ibm-j2sdk.sh j2re.sh j2sdk-doc.sh j2sdk.sh j2se.sh sun-j2re.sh sun-j2sdk-doc.sh sun-j2sdk.sh
Detected Debian build architecture: i386
Detected Debian GNU type: i486-linux-gnu
No matching plugin was found.
Removing temporary directory: done
How can I fix the "No matching plugin was found." error?
Update
I downloaded jdk-1_5_0_22-linux-amd64.bin from the archive page and ran Linux installer.
It works fine.
