Java Docs Package Won't Install

[Max Luebbe]

Binary package hint: sun-java6-doc

This is also a problem with the java5 version of this package

Trying to install these packages produces a message:

Setting up sun-java6-doc (6-00-2ubuntu1) ...
This package is an installer package, it does not actually contain the
JDK documentation. You will need to go download one of the
archives:

now and download. The file should be owned by root.root and be copied
to /tmp.

[Press RETURN to try again, 'no' + RETURN to abort]

We should probably use wget or something to grab these files and save users the hassle. This is annoying and unnecessary.

[Áron Sisak (asisak)]

There might be a licensing issue that prevents us doing the easy way.
But I agree that installing documentation should work without user downloads.

[Nathan Murray (yotux)]

I think the issue could possibly lie in the matter that there is no root account per say. Have noticed that on my fiesty system it continues and try top install it self with every package that I add to the system.

If you follow the instructions it gives, it will install and stop
popping up during your updates.
You need to grab an archive from sun's website, and move/decompress it
to a specific location with root permissions.

However - I think the fact that you have to do that is a bug in and of
itself.
Especially because the broken package will halt any update operation.
Users less familiar with ubuntu might mistakenly think that the process
has frozen, when in fact its halted because of blocking I/O.

In my opinion, either the package should actually install the
documentation from sun's website or should be removed from the repository.
Why would anyone want to install a package that installs nothing and
does nothing more than screw up your updates until you install some
archives off the web as root?

[Matthias Klose (doko)]

developers needing the documentation appreciate to be able to install the docs, so it's not useless. Please send a patch, if you think that the installation procedure can be simplified.

[Alex Mayorga (alex-mayorga)]

I confirm this one happens to me and that I consider it a bug, given that it gets in the way of any update. I'll suggest removing sun-java6-doc in the time being.

[Max Luebbe (max-luebbe)]

What we should be doing since licensing is a problem, is handling it the
same way we do with other components with the same problem. Doesn't a popup
with the license, and the agree button seem logical? If we did this, could
we make this a real package as opposed to an empty one? If this is ok, I'll
contrib a new version with this functionality.

The blocking of my update is why I reported this the first time.

I agree that on the click trough license acceptance idea. All Sun's products use this concept.

[Max Luebbe (max-luebbe)]

I've got tommorrow off from work, I might have time to build this.
If not, I'll make a package sometime next week.

This one still appears on Gutsy Tribe 5 as follows:

Description: Sun JDK(TM) Documention -- integration installer
 The JDK(TM) is a development environment for building applications, applets,
 and components using the Java programming language.

 This package does not contain the Java Documentation for the Java(TM)
 Development Kit (JDK). The Java Documentation (jdk-6-doc.zip) may be
 downloaded from http://java.sun.com/javase/downloads/ and, if placed in /tmp
 (with root.root ownership), this package will install the Java Documentation
 with the corresponding JDK.

 Note that the Japanese version of the documentation (jdk-6-doc-ja.zip) may
 alternately be used.

 NOTE: you cannot currently use this package to have both English & Japanese
 documentation installed simultaneously

[Matthias Klose (doko)]

so what goes wrong? did you download the docs and put them into /tmp ?
we can't fix broken upstream licenses

[Alex Mayorga (alex-mayorga)]

@Matthias

Doesn't the Operating System Distributor License for Java (DLJ) covers the Docs as well?

When I installed the sun-java6-bin package it showed me the corresponding license and when I accepted it installed.

Regards and keep up the great work.

no, it's another license; the DLJ bundle doesn't include the documentation.

[alain pierson (fb385776)]

Same problem for me and the staff are under /tmp and run with a root account - it does not work. Failed to install

[sagmendez (sagmendez)]

what to do to install this package? this package is needed to programing in java? i,m new and i'm studing... Thank you

[exactt (giesbert)]

hi sagmendez,

this bug is more a kind of convinience thing. you can easily download java from java.sun.com and get the docs from that package.
if you are using hardy heron (aka 8.04) i would suggest using openjdk instead of sun java.

p.s. don't assign a bug to you if you aren't actually going to fix the bug (which i don't think you are doing ;-) ).

[libby (lizmacli)]

hasnt the java problem got a lot to do with the changesof versions numbers of java like for instance i have version 1.6 which is really version 6 i have it to the bug .problem i think it also has a lot to do with which firefox you are running and togehther with the who is going to be having the license who filfrox/java or lnyx/java i personally think that has more to do with the problem like who is goinmg to be licensed it to with hope you understand

[Allen Levin (allenlevin)]

How do you stop Synaptic from trying to do the install over and over again?

[Anita (anitabowersock)]

Thanks i finally got it to download and put in root/tmp. This should be fixed by sun

send a patch, which lets users sign the license and downloads the file.

I just read the message at the prompt on synaptics package manager and
downloaded the file manually on the .tmp folder.
then I pressed enter and it installed, sweet. I regret only I didn't read

Still a problem on intrepid ... moreover the zip file need to be rename now:

No so difficult to do but this step should be done automatically using wget.

sudo chown root jdk-6u10-docs.zip
sudo chgrp root jdk-6u10-docs.zip
mv jdk-6u10-docs.zip /tmp/jdk-6-doc.zip

[djstkg (djstkg)]

The explanation in post one above is helpful and does all needed work.

JUST DO IT STEP BY STEP.

Thanks neub

[djstkg (djstkg)]

P.S. During next installation of any other software in Synaptic, it installs this package automatically.

After that you can delete jdk-6-doc.zip from /tmp/jdk-6-doc.zip

[JJ (jjustin01)]

I acccidentally reported this last night, but that's because Synaptic actually crashed which led to this bug being reported. When I tried again, I followed the instructions for downloading the JDK docs from Sun's website and copying them to the /tmp folder and it worked without a problem.

Would be nice if we didn't have to take this step though.

[kingtiger01 (mnovick1988)]

i agree, there also should be a small GUI utility for Setting Primary Java/Flash versions. i use GCJ personally for small things, but when i need to use the JDK, i cant set it to use the Java-6 non-free version as easy.

-- Just food for thought, though its off topic. - I fixed my issue, after removing and re-installing Java-doc

[jmm (emailjeff)]

The personal tactical fix is to download the docs for the correct version and then move the file to the tmp directory and rename it to what's expected.

The strategic fix is to have synaptic download it and install it.

I just want know, I am new to Linux-bug reporting, I have used Ubuntu since
its conception, loved it.
I want to know, how can I help in reporting for bugs, like is there a debug
mode ?
What are the steps? What is a standardized way ? What is one to do, when
Ubuntu just crashes and nothing except reboot is the only way out, something
that resembles windows, the very reason for me to leave it is haunting me
;-)

The is serious as I have advocated Ubuntu in many small businesses, and do
not know how to face them.....

*So in short what is the official steps that would be needed to provide
complete information about the bug, even when system is totally crashed and
a reboot is performed.*

thanks

JavaTM SE 6 Release Notes
Document Installation

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
 JDK Documentation

You should have approximately 165 MB of free disk space before installing the documentation.

Install the Java Platform Standard Edition documentation by following these steps:

1. Where to unbundle your documentation

You can install the documentation inside your JDK directory or in any other location you prefer.
Unbundling the JDK documentation creates a docs directory (folder) in the current directory, putting all the documentation inside that directory as shown here.

*******(documents) docs (APIs)
******___________________________|__________________________
*****| | | | | | | |
index.html legal technotes images api platform jre jdk
***************_______|_______
**************| | |
************tools samples guides

2. Unbundle your documentation
Unbundle the documentation using the a zip-compatible utility such as winzip, unzip, gunzip, or pkunzip. Your utility must support long file names.
To unbundle the documentation bundle using the zip utility:

C:> unzip jdk-6-doc.zip

You can also unbundle the .zip file using the JDK's jar utility:

C:> jar xvf jdk-6-doc.zip

Note: If you are using another tool that doesn't preserve path names by default, be sure to specify that path names be preserved. For example, if you are using pkunzip, specify -d:

C:> pkunzip -d jdk-6-doc.zip

Unzipping the documentation bundle creates a docs/ directory containing your Java Platform documentation.
3. View the documentation
Open the docs/index.html page in a browser. This is the front page and table of contents of the JDK documentation.

Hi,

my bug comes every time when I install some other packages with synapsis
(ubuntu 8.04-8.11), especially when some other java isntall package must be
installed. I have allready earlier installed javadoc 6 package with
succesfully. Perhaps reason is that some reinsltallation is not
successfull?!

Apparently it is necessary to remove explicitly the doc package (or what is left of it) after the bug has shown up:
sudo apt-get remove openjdk-6-doc

Adept on Kubuntu Intrepid seems to freeze totally while trying to install this. And the download address on the Konsole isn't correct. Okay not new things, but I thought I'd still post them :)

[Nailson (nailsonlinux)]

Try to rename the file to jdk-6u10-docs.zip, if it doesn't work, download it
again from Sun.

[Ross Copeland (pandrcope)]

I have tried downloading over and over, tried various suggestions and
options but just keeping running into the same dead ends so I am giving
up on Java!!!
The only reason I was even looking at Java is because I couldn't open
the Help documentation in OpenOffice. I can get help/advice for OO
elsewhere so do I really need Java? I don't think so at present so I
will try to live without it

Ross, After renaming the file I think you are suppose to put it inside the /tmp
folder. Did you do that. Because it is working for me.

Thanks, but I can't even get that far. I am over Java, don't want to
know about it anymore.

When will this fix be available?
Will the next version of Ubuntu avoid this problem?

[Michael Nagel (nailor)]

it looks as if bug 364984 should be merged with this one as they describe the same problem, imho.

however both reports have plenty of duplicates and launchpad does not handle merging such bugs very well i think.

maybe one of you could have a look at this other bug and either mark it as duplicate (or close it and redirect people here) or work out the differences between the reports...

[Monkey (monkey-libre)]

I confirm this bug in Ubuntu 9.10 Karmic Koala. I´ve done: sudo aptitude install sun-java6 and the Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (1). Then I´ve done sudo dpkg --configure sun-java6-doc
Configuring sun-java6-doc (6-15-1) ...
This package is an installer package, it does not actually contain the

I confirm this bug in Ubuntu 9.10 Karmic Koala 32 bits. I´ve done: sudo aptitude install sun-java6 and the Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (1). Then I´ve done sudo dpkg --configure sun-java6-doc
Configuring sun-java6-doc (6-15-1) ...
This package is an installer package, it does not actually contain the
JDK documentation. You will need to go download one of the
archives:

    jdk-6u10-docs.zip jdk-6u10-docs-ja.zip

(choose the non-update version if this is the first installation).

sun-java6-doc removed in lucid

[Alex Cockell (alcockell)]

I have to ask - wouldn't it be possible for Canonical to liaise with Oracle re the possibility of getting the Java documentation into the Partner repo?

Or has this already been done?

[NoBugs! (luke32j)]

Since sun-java6-doc package isn't available in lucid, how can I install javadoc for use in Netbeans and Eclipse?

[Nailson (nailsonlinux)]

On Netbeans:

Click on Tools >> NetBeans Platforms
Click on Javadoc >> Add ZIP/Directory

and add the .zip package with J2SE Doc.

[Philip (haslewood)]

Has this problem been fixed. If so where do I find the fix?

[MaxMtp (m-ruas)]

Really I don't know because since that time I didn't installed again JAVA.
Let say it is fixed.

Hi,

Looks very strange, but I do not see the sun-java6-doc package as available
any more.

Best regards, Sergey
