Installing Oracle Java on Ubuntu x64 (Using your Windows Share)

Download the Oracle JDK GZ that you wish to install on your target Ubuntu x64 Clients.

http://java.com/en/download/manual.jsp

Save the GZ on the Windows share being used for deploying applications using Management Utilities

In our example we are using a share on our server 192.168.200.57\apps\linuxapps\ it uses the same username and password as used in our windows Authentication to access the share - this will be used in the script

**Please Note - you must run the commands silent with no output or user prompts

Script - Install JDK x64 (Windows Share)

Create the following script using a text editor on Linux or using or with Notepad++ (with EOL Conversion set to Unix) and save it to the shared apps folder on the windows server 

In our example we are using the following to access the share:

username = administrator 

password = SyAM123$

path = \\192.168.200.57\apps\linuxapps\

In our example we are using the following for the ubuntu user password to run as sudo:

Ubuntu user password = 12345678

#!/bin/bash

echo 12345678 | sudo -S apt-get purge openjdk-\*

echo 12345678 | sudo -S mkdir -p /usr/local/java

echo 12345678 | sudo -S smbget -n -q -u administrator -p SyAM123 $ smb://192.168.200.57/apps/linuxapps/jdk-8u77-linux-x64.gz

echo 12345678 | sudo -S cp -r jdk-8u77-linux-x64.gz /usr/local/java

cd /usr/local/java

echo 12345678 | sudo -S chmod a+x jdk-8u77-linux-x64.gz

echo 12345678 | sudo -S tar zxvf jdk-8u77-linux-x64.gz > /dev/null

echo 12345678 | sudo -S update-alternatives --install "/usr/bin/java" "java" "/usr/local/java/jdk1.8.0_77/bin/java" 1

echo 12345678 | sudo -S update-alternatives --install "/usr/bin/javaws" "javaws" "/usr/local/java/jdk1.8.0_77/bin/javaws" 1

echo 12345678 | sudo -S update-alternatives --set java /usr/local/java/jdk1.8.0_77/bin/java

echo 12345678 | sudo -S update-alternatives --set javaws /usr/local/java/jdk1.8.0_77/bin/javaws

cd $home

echo 12345678 | sudo -S rm -f jdk-8u77-linux-x64.gz
