Installing Java from console

  • 772

I have tried to install Java using the following instruction:

sudo add-apt-repository ppa:webupd8team/java
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install oracle-java8-installer

But after sudo add-apt-repository ppa:webupd8team/java I get ERROR:

Traceback (most recent call last):
File "/usr/bin/add-apt-repository", line 11, in <module>
from softwareproperties.SoftwareProperties import SoftwareProperties, shortcut_handler
ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'softwareproperties'

I have checked "ls -l /usr/bin/python*":

  1. Do you have software-properties installed?

    Try:

    apt-get install -y python-software-properties software-properties-common software-properties-gtk python3-software-properties software-properties-kde
