Java and Ubuntu 12.04

[xultz]

Hello

I know almost nothing about Java. I would like to try OpenKM in a Ubuntu 12.04 Server, but it looks like Canonical took out the Java package from Oracle because of some kind of copryright issues. I found some other sugestions, like OpenJDK to replace Sun Java JDK.
I would like to know if it possible to run OpenKM in such package, or it must run onle in Sun Java JDK.

Thanx in advance for any help

You should run with sun jdk, because it was we've the environment we develop and which is tested. With openjdk should run too, but I suggest not use it on a production environment. Finally Oracle will force us to use openjdk.

Just do the following commands and you will able to run openkm using Oracle java 6
