Installing Java 7 on Ubuntu

To install Java 7 on Ubuntu, you can follow these steps:

  1. Update the package index:

    sudo apt-get update
  2. Install the Java 7 runtime:

    sudo apt-get install openjdk-7-jre
  3. Set the default Java version:

    sudo update-alternatives --config java

    This command will show you a list of available Java versions and ask you to select the default version. Select the Java 7 runtime by typing the corresponding number and pressing Enter.

  4. Verify the installation:

    java -version

    This command should print the Java version, which should be Java 7.

I hope this helps. Let me know if you have any questions.
