How to install Java Stack on Ubuntu 7.04

Asked by kerryd on 2007-05-18

Hi,
I installed Ubuntu Server and then installed the GUI so that I could work in something other than the command line.

I would like to install the Sun Java Stack but I can't figure out how. I have been through the Add/Remove dialog several times and tried different servers etc.... I also installled the Ubuntu Restricted Extras - but that didn't give me what I want.

I am looking for the following:
  - Java SE 6 JDK
  - GlassFish v1
  - NetBeans IDE 5.5
  - Java DB 10.2

All the stuff announced on April 19th.

Thanks in advance for any help along these lines.
... Kerry

Hello, Java actually makes a Linux installer for netbeans, I think for the others on your list to. You can go here http://www.netbeans.info/downloads/index.php and get netbeans and JDK together. I have actually installed those and it was simple following their instructions. I have not heard of glassfish, but I found it here. https://glassfish.dev.java.net/downloads/v1_ur1-p01-b02.html Hope this helps, let me know how it turns out if you could.

The Java packages are in the Multiverse repository. To add the Multiverse Repository, please follow the instructions given here:
https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Repositories/Ubuntu#head-5bbef89639d9a7d93fe38f6356dc17847d373096

Once you add the multiverse repository, you can install the packages with Synaptic. For eg. here are the installation instructions for Glassfish, from a Sun blog:

For other packages, follow the same procedure. Here are the package names:
