[Guide] Install Oracle Java (JDK) 8 on Amazon EC2 Ami
Raw
java-8-ami.md

First verify the version of Java being used is not Sun Java 8 SDK

java -version

Check the latest version a build numbers in http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/java/javase/downloads/index.html

For url http://download.oracle.com/otn-pub/java/jdk/8u91-b14/jdk-8u91-linux-x64.tar.gz, the variables should be defined as:

java_base_version="8"
java_sub_version="11"
java_base_build="14"

java_version="${java_base_version}u${java_sub_version}"
java_build="b${java_base_build}"
java_version_with_build="${java_version}-${java_build}"

Get the Sun Java 8 SDK from Oracle

wget --no-cookies --header "Cookie: gpw_e24=xxx; oraclelicense=accept-securebackup-cookie;" "http://download.oracle.com/otn-pub/java/jdk/${java_version_with_build}/jdk-${java_version}-linux-x64.rpm"

Install Sun Java 8

sudo rpm -i jdk-${java_version}-linux-x64.rpm

Check if the default java version is set to Sun Java 8 SDK

java -version

If not then lets create one more alternative for Sun Java 8 SDK

sudo /usr/sbin/alternatives --install /usr/bin/java java /usr/java/jdk1.${java_base_version}.0_${java_sub_version}/bin/java 20000

Set the Sun Java 8 SDK as the default java

sudo /usr/sbin/alternatives --config java

Verify if change in SDK was done

java -version

Add the export of the java home to your .bashrc, .bash_profile, .zshrc, or any other relevant file.

export JAVA_HOME=/usr/java/default

Please add how to setup JAVA_HOME too. Thanks
Maybe this step will help?

export JAVA_HOME=/usr/java/default

This question covers upgrading to Java 8 - http://serverfault.com/questions/664643/how-can-i-upgrade-to-java-1-8-on-an-amazon-linux-server - apparently you can do

sudo yum install java-1.8.0
sudo /usr/sbin/alternatives --config java

Not sure how this differs from the other install instructions.

@bburns - the serverfault url adds openjdk 1.8 NOT Oracle JDK 1.8.
Some tools, like maven, I've discovered, only work with Oracle JDK. Hence this post is VERY USEFUL

@dspencerr

amazing! Thanks so much for taking time to do this. I agree with @mohataher. If you can add the export JAVA_HOME command it would be perfect. I know the step, but a lot do not.

thanks @mohataher for the suggestion. I just updated the script and parameterized the version values to be easier to use this.

JDK 8u101

wget --no-cookies --header "Cookie: gpw_e24=xxx; oraclelicense=accept-securebackup-cookie;" "http://download.oracle.com/otn-pub/java/jdk/8u101-b13/jdk-8u101-linux-x64.rpm"

After running sudo /usr/sbin/alternatives --config java the default alternative is properly set as my new java 8, but reverts back to the previous ava 7 openJDK after reboot. Any idea on how to persist the changes?

Seems as though the URL must include some key signature to work. The key for JDK 8u131b11 is (obviously) different from the last one poasted about. This is the URL link that worked for this version:

Need to figure out a way to automate this...

I think the quotes need to come off the url? (missing schema problem)?
