    Question Unable to install java 1.7 after upgrading to ubuntu 12.04

    Hi,

    I recently upgraded my machine from ubuntu 11.10 to 12.04.. Everything went smooth except for java 1.7 installation..

    can anyone help me to resolve with this..


    Setting up oracle-java7-installer (7u3-0~eugenesan~precise4) ...
    Downloading...
    Download done.
    sha256sum mismatch jdk-7u3-linux-i586.tar.gz
    Oracle JDK 7 is NOT installed.
    dpkg: error processing oracle-java7-installer (--configure):
    subprocess installed post-installation script returned error exit status 1
    Errors were encountered while processing:
    oracle-java7-installer
    E: Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (1)


    From ubuntu software center java is marked as installation completed successfully.

    Nope, because the download package that goes *WITH* the installer is broken. Rerunning the configuration just fails with same message.

    Are you running this from Webupd8's PPA, which can be found on Launchpad and added to your sources.list?

    BTW, the current update is u4.
