Get error when install Oracle JDK 8 on Ubuntu 18.04
I look up to the webupd8 site and it seems that the ppa was discontinued.
Oracle Java downloads now require logging in to an Oracle account to download Java updates, like the latest Oracle Java 8u211 / Java SE 8u212. Because of this I cannot update the PPA with the latest Java (and the old links were broken by Oracle).
For this reason, THIS PPA IS DISCONTINUED (unless I find some way around this limitation). http://www.webupd8.org/2012/09/install-oracle-java-8-in-ubuntu-via-ppa.html
How to install it then?
You can create account on Oracle to download Java from their site (they are free for personal use), then follow this instruction → How can I install Sun/Oracle's proprietary Java JDK 6/7/8 or JRE?.
The WebUpd8 Team's PPA for that repository has been discontinued, per the PPA's page itself.
To quote the PPA specifically, this is in regards to changes in the License Agreement, and that you must physically manually download the latest Java 8 versions because they make you sign into an Oracle Account (which is free) to even gain access to downloads. This is explicitly stated in the PPA description, quoted here as of April 22, 2019:
The Oracle JDK License has changed for releases starting April 16, 2019.
The new Oracle Technology Network License Agreement for Oracle Java SE is substantially different from prior Oracle JDK licenses. The new license permits certain uses, such as personal use and development use, at no cost -- but other uses authorized under prior Oracle JDK licenses may no longer be available. Please review the terms carefully before downloading and using this product. An FAQ is available here: https://www.oracle.com/technetwork/java/javase/overview/oracle-jdk-faqs.html
