JDownloader Installation Procedure?

NightAoX

Does anyone have any tips on the best way to install JDownloader?

You must have Java installed.
Download the script sh from the jdownloader site (by the way, your link doesn't work for me).
In the console sh /path/to/JDownloader2Setup_unix_nojre.sh

pomon Which Java? There's a ton of them..

pomon

For example openjdk-17

NightAoX

pomon Does it need to be manually started?

nolan

there's an article about java installations in the Solus Help Center, check it out

nolan Thanks. Not gonna lie. That went over my head. I need a bit more step by step direction than what's provided in that article.

nolan

yes, I have some experience installing openjdk, I know that felling, I could make a step by step guide wen I have time, maybe tomorrow.

NightAoX

nolan That would be a nice piece of information haha. Have you guys ever considered doing a series of tutorial videos?

nolan

I don't feel the need. I'd like to collaborate in the help center instead.

NightAoX

nolan Well, the videos could be in the help center haha.

If you have installed openjdk-17 do:
export JAVA_HOME=/usr/lib64/openjdk-17 export PATH=$JAVA_HOME/bin:$PATH
Then the command I gave earlier

NightAoX

pomon Still getting that error message..

pomon

Show: eopkg li | grep openjdk. Paste this error here.

NightAoX

pomon Hmm...

Seems like each time I need to do something with eopkg, I have to run

export LC_ALL="en_US.UTF-8" export LC_CTYPE="en_US.UTF-8"

first.

Not sure what's broken there nor how to fix it, but that's tedious haha.

But for some reason, today it appears everything worked this time. Maybe reinstalling openjdk-17 did the trick?

Here's the full terminal readout:

In order not to enter each time, add:
export JAVA_HOME=/usr/lib64/openjdk-17 export PATH=$JAVA_HOME/bin:$PATH to .bashrc and source .bashrc
Check java --version

When it comes to locale, I suggest you open a new thread.

NightAoX

pomon Well, I'm hoping the issue is just that openjdk just needed to be installed again.. Won't know until I run into a situation where I need to install a java based program again haha. But I'm gonna bump my other locale thread haha. Thanks.
