Step 1 – Add Java 8 PPA
The webupd8 team has built a Java installer package for Debian systems. You need to add that PPA repository to your system for installing Java 8 on Debian.
Create a new Apt configuration file /etc/apt/sources.list.d/java-8-debian.list, and edit in text editor.
sudo vim /etc/apt/sources.list.d/java-8-debian.list
and add following content in it.
deb http://ppa.launchpad.net/webupd8team/java/ubuntu trusty main deb-src http://ppa.launchpad.net/webupd8team/java/ubuntu trusty main
Now import GPG key on your system for validating packages before installing them.
sudo apt-key adv --keyserver keyserver.ubuntu.com --recv-keys EEA14886
Step 2 – Install Java 8 on Debian
You are all set to start Java installation on Debian. Run the following commands to update apt-cache and then install Java 8 on Debian system using the apt-get package manager.
sudo apt-get update sudo apt-get install oracle-java8-installer
The installer will prompt for accept Oracle terms in order to continue Java installation on Debian. Accept the terms and complete setup.
Step 3 – Verify Java Installation
Finally, you have successfully installed Oracle Java on your Debian system. Let’s use the following command to verify installed version of Java on your system.
java -version java version " 1.8.0_201 " Java(TM) SE Runtime Environment (build 1.8.0_201-b09) Java HotSpot(TM) 64-Bit Server VM (build 25.201-b09, mixed mode)
Step 4 – Setup Java Environment
The Webupd8 PPA repository also provides a package to set environment variables, Install this package using the following command.
sudo apt-get install oracle-java8-set-default

Under my current OS release, the command to update the key store is
sudo apt-key adv –keyserver hkp://keyserver.ubuntu.com:80 –recv-keys EEA14886
Thanks eclipse Neon.3 start to run again!
I am running Raspian Stretch Lite and when I attempt to hit the import of the key it fails with:
“[email protected]:~ $ sudo apt-key adv –keyserver keyserver.ubuntu.com –recv-keys EEA14886
Executing: /tmp/apt-key-gpghome.l6hy3eHIwG/gpg.1.sh –keyserver keyserver.ubuntu.com –recv-keys EEA14886
gpg: failed to start the dirmngr ‘/usr/bin/dirmngr’: No such file or directory
gpg: connecting dirmngr at ‘/tmp/apt-key-gpghome.l6hy3eHIwG/S.dirmngr’ failed: No such file or directory
gpg: keyserver receive failed: No dirmngr”
I also tried instead doing the Java 9 and it fails at the key import as well. What am I doing wrong?
Please install before this:
sudo apt-get install dirmngr
Thanks for this, it helped me out
how can I proceed by adding the following content to it?
deb http://ppa.launchpad.net/webupd8team/java/ubuntu trusty main
deb-src http://ppa.launchpad.net/webupd8team/java/ubuntu trusty main
cause it stucks there
