Linux (64-bit AMD)

Japanese

System Requirements

J2SE Runtime Environment 5.0 is supported on Linux platforms running on 64-bit AMD processors. For supported versions of Linux and desktop managers, along with disk and RAM requirements, see System Configurations.

Installation Instructions

This procedure installs the J2SE Runtime Environment, but not the Java Plug-in or Java Web Start (which are not yet available for 64-bit Linux). The J2SE Runtime Environment for Linux 64-bit comes bundled in two install formats, whose filenames are given here:

  • Self-extracting binary:
    jre-1_5_0_<version>-linux-amd64.bin

  • RPM File:
    jre-1_5_0_<version>-linux-amd64-rpm.bin
To install, download these files and otherwise follow the 32-bit Linux installation.

Known Problems

When running the rpm command, the warning "user java_re does not exist - using root" may be displayed. You can ignore this warning, which is due to a bug in the installation package.
