You have probably download the wrong file. The RPM doen't work on ubuntu.

I recommend using actionparsnip's way (or installing from the Canonical partner repository, though the PPA may provide more current versions). The benefits are that (a) the packages you are installing are designed and intended for Ubuntu, (b) software that relies on Java will know that it is installed and how to use it, and (c) Java will be updated when you update the rest of your system.
Of course, you might prefer to use the free open source software version of Java (openjdk and icedtea), which is also official. See https:/
