A bit of a noob question here, but I can't seem to update my Java from 8u31 to 8u45 or 8u51 (Linux Mint 17.2).
I can switch between my Java 7/8/9 easily, but these minor versions are really annoying me, especially when certain programs require 8u45/51 to run because of security issues with 8u31. I downloaded the updates and put them in my /usr/java/ directory, but they don't contain all the files needed to run java, so I have to fall back to the installations in my /usr/lib/jvm/ directory, which contains 8u31. How can I change this?
Yup! After uninstalling it and reinstalling it, followed by a bit of configuring, it worked! Thanks :) – DonkeyCore – 2015-07-26T02:38:06.320
