Do I need to install JDK on a pre-built Oracle DB Developer VM?

Manoj Dixit

Hi,

I am about to install OBI EE 12.2.1.2.0 on an Oracle Linux based Virtual Box which is based on a pre-built Oracle DB Developer VM.

Oracle SQL Developer is also pre-installed and Help displays Java version.

Issuing "find / -name java | more" displays some java folders.

My question now is do I need to specifically install JDK before installing OBI EE 12c on the VM?

Could you please let me know?

Thank you.

Regards,

Manoj.

if after executing

java - version

you get a java version that is compatible with OBIEE installation you should be fine

if not ... installing the right java on the Oracle DB Developer VM (must be a OEL6 or 7) is done in 5 minutes (1 to find the right file, 3.5 to download and 0.5 for the unique command installing java ).

Oracle VMs with Oracle Linux 6 needs Java 1.8.0_101+ as is stipulated in the certification matrix

Thanks for the reply. Issued "java -version" and the version displayed is 1.8.0_121.
