Has anyone tried to do the same using windows bitsadmin utility.

Is there an easy way for a script to get a list of the available jdk versions?

JDK 121 has released but this url does not seem to work http://download.oracle.com/otn-pub/java/jdk/8u121-b13/jdk-8u121-linux-x64.tar.gz. Anyone has any thought?

It looks like they added some kind of hash to the path.

Anyone have 7u80 URL by chance?

@DrGirlfriend,
Now you need Oracle account to download old (archive) versions 😢
http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/java/javase/downloads/java-archive-downloads-javase7-521261.html

It seems Oracle added some kind of hash to the download url like "e9e7ea248e2c4826b92b3f075a80e441"
so links like
http://download.oracle.com/otn-pub/java/jdk/8u121-b13/jdk-8u121-linux-x64.tar.gz
won't work anymore.

👍

You can get the real download URL's from the javascript array in the download page. That said, there seems to be something else going on as well now.

I just regex match the full page source with e.g. "(http://download.*windows-i586.exe)"

Sending the correct cookies, you will then get a redirect 302 to a location with an AuthParam hash

Your URL must start with edelivery.oracle.com not the download.oracle.com as they've supplied, but is otherwise identical.
You'll get a redirect to a url with an authparam parameter next (this is likely different every time)

http://download.oracle.com/otn-pub/java/jdk/8u121-b13/e9e7ea248e2c4826b92b3f075a80e441/jre-8u121-windows-x64.exe?AuthParam=1492095708_605c40753ae1f76391752f66815963ec

Yes, now you have to get account on oracle.com to be able to download old version.

http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/java/javase/downloads/java-archive-javase8-2177648.html

@Alexhha having to create an account to download old software and breaking every Ansible java playbook in use is a new Feature You'll Love From Oracle™

@P7h I would recommend use sed to extract last part instead cut + 2 rev cmds

Line 22:
JDK_VERSION=echo $BASE_URL_8 | sed -r "s#.+/##"

Has anyone figured out how to generate the hash code?

@austinheap
Exactly. Have to switch to OpenJDK.

Has anyone figured out how to generate the hash code?

Still cannot figure out, anyone has a solution besides OpenJDK?

you can still download latest Java version without OTN account. And the link (with generated hash code) you can get with help of this site https://lv.binarybabel.org/catalog/java/jdk8.

The site is down :( does anyone have an alternative?

I wrote a shell script to automatically download Oracle SE JDK, support RHEL/Debian/SUSE and their variants distrobutions.
I created a version selection menu to support both Java 9 and Java 8 installation, add sha256 hash check to make source package is verified and authorized.
With parameter -h will list help info about the usage of the script.
Github url is https://github.com/MaxdSre/ShellScript/blob/master/assets/software/OracleSEJDK.sh.

@ghost
Your script worked like a charm!
However, maybe it would be better if /usr/lib/jvm/default-java would link to the same location as JAVA_HOME, namely /opt/OracleJDK?

$ echo $JAVA_HOME
/opt/OracleJDK

$ sudo update-java-alternatives -l
awk: fatal: cannot open file `/usr/lib/jvm/*.jinfo' for reading (No such file or directory)
default-java                              /usr/lib/jvm/default-java

$ ls -l /usr/lib/jvm/ | grep java
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root   24 Feb 25  2016 default-java -> java-1.8.0-openjdk-amd64
drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 4096 Aug  2 09:25 java-8-oracle

It seems like Oracle has changed the way that java can be downloaded. You now need to have an oracle account and login before you can download some of the archived java versions. Does anyone have a bash script that is able to login as well as download these files?

Hi guys, Some one has a specific version link like 7u131 b12.

Hey guys, great resource! Does anyone has the download link for the latest jdk8 8u192 b12 release? Thanks!
Edited: 8u192 b12 link: http://download.oracle.com/otn-pub/java/jdk/8u192-b12/750e1c8617c5452694857ad95c3ee230/server-jre-8u192-linux-x64.tar.gz

It looks like as of 2019-04-16 you do now have to log in to an oracle account. Anyone finding a work around?

it doesnot work now. i tried below command, gives: 401 Authorization Required Username/Password Authentication Failed.

wget --no-cookies --no-check-certificate --header "Cookie: oraclelicense=accept-securebackup-cookie" "https://download.oracle.com/otn/java/jdk/8u211-b12/478a62b7d4e34b78b671c754eaaf38ab/jdk-8u211-linux-x64.tar.gz" -O jdk-8u211-linux-x64.tar.gz

any command to sign in oracle account- accept the license agreement - download the jdk tar.gz from cli?
the reason is becoz;

The Oracle JDK License has changed for releases starting April 16, 2019.
The new Oracle Technology Network License Agreement for Oracle Java SE is substantially different from prior Oracle JDK licenses. The new license permits certain uses, such as personal use and development use, at no cost -- but other uses authorized under prior Oracle JDK licenses may no longer be available. Please review the terms carefully before downloading and using this product. An FAQ is available here.

Oracle Java downloads now require logging in to an Oracle account to download Java updates, like the latest Oracle Java 8u211 / Java SE 8u212. Because of this I cannot update the PPA with the latest Java (and the old links were broken by Oracle).

For this reason, THIS PPA IS DISCONTINUED (unless I find some way around this limitation).

Oracle Java 8 is now stable. Below you'll find instructions on how to install it in Ubuntu / Linux Mint via a PPA repository. The PPA supports JDK8 for both 32bit and 64bit as well as ARM (ARM v6/v7 Hard Float ABI - there's no JDK 8 ARM Soft Float ABI archive available for download on Oracle's website).
please suggest anyone!

This is the official script you get from Oracle once an update has been found and selected from GUI
