Not sure what "works" and "doesn't  work" above mean, so let's do
this; create a file, let's say java.rb with

# start
def java_installed?
  `java -version &> /dev/null`
  $?.success?
end

puts java_installed?
# end

Then run it from the command line, e.g.    ruby java.rb

Let's see what the output is.
