RE: sun-java6 alternatives for Solr 3.5
You can download Oracle's Java (which was Sun's) from Oracle directly. You will have to create an account with them. You can use the same account for reading the java forum and downloading other software like their famous DB. Simply download. JDK6 is still a binary as were all Sun packages before. Do a chmod +x and run it. You have to accept the license, and then it unpacks itself in that same directory - no root privileges required. As of JDK 7 you can download tar.gz packages. http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/java/javase/downloads/index.html Actually, you're better of downloading and installing by yourself because you can have several different versions in parallel and the automatic updates do not override your installed version. That comes in handy if you are a Java developer, at least...

Re: sun-java6 alternatives for Solr 3.5
I'm not an Ubuntu user, but I think I read somewhere that sun's jdks packages have been removed from repositories. Don't know more details, but you should be able to install them by yourself... download and install appropriate rpm's, that's the way I did using Fedora 14-16 On Mon, Feb 27, 2012 at 1:24 PM, ku3ia dem...@gmail.com wrote: Hi all!

For what it's worth, I run Solr 3.5 on Ubuntu using the OpenJDK packages and I haven't run into any problems. I do realize that sometimes the Sun JDK has features that are missing from other Java implementations, but so far it hasn't affected my use of Solr. - Demian -Original Message- From: ku3ia [mailto:dem...@gmail.com] Sent: Monday, February 27, 2012 2:25 PM To: solr-user@lucene.apache.org Subject: sun-java6 alternatives for Solr 3.5 Hi all!
