Install Java SE Development Kit (JDK)
On your assembly-host and
engine-host(s), while logged in as
root
:
Download and install Java SE development kit (JDK), version 6. It may be possible to download it from one of your Linux distribution's software repositories. If so, this is usually the easiest method. On Debian-based Linux machines, for example, you can install it by entering:
#
apt-get install sun-java6-jdk
If you are installing on Ubuntu 10.04 or higher, Oracle Java has
been moved from the standard repository to the partner repository.
Therefore you must configure your system to use the partner repository
before you can enter the above command (if you have not already done
so). To add the partner repository, open
/etc/apt/sources.list
for editing and add the
following line:
deb http://archive.canonical.com/ubuntu lucid partner
Otherwise, you can download Oracle Java 6 from http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/java/javase/downloads/index.html.
Verify that Java is correctly installed by entering:
#
java -version
This should result in output something like this:
java version "1.6.0_16"
Java(TM) SE Runtime Environment (build 1.6.0_16-b01)
Java HotSpot(TM) Server VM (build 14.2-b01, mixed mode)
