The importance of network latency when scaling Magento horizontally.Placing Magento 2 behind Varnish reverse proxy.Composer workflow for developing proprietary Magento 2 extensions.Now make yourselves a coffee, open your terminal and paste these commands: You can create latest Sun Java JDK and JRE 6 packages manually using instructions from my later article.Īll we need to do is to download and execute Martin Wimpress BASH script, and that script will use Janusz Dziemidowicz work to create local repository and Java JDK deb packages. If BASH script described in this article fails this means that script developer has failed to update script for latest Oracle web site changes.
These guys made it possible for us to create Java JDK 6 and JRE 6 deb packages and create local Java repository our selves. So here I'm presenting work of excellent Debian packaging work by Janusz Dziemidowicz and a fellow open source enthusiast Martin Wimpress from Flexion.Org. That isn't exactly hard thing to do but we don't want to give Oracle the pleasure of knowing that they made our already crowded day a little more complicated.
But since Oracle sliced "Operating System Distributor License for Java" and now nobody can legally host Java repository we have to install Java manually by downloading their JRE or JDK blob from Oracle servers. That's actually not a bad thing because we get to carry our development environment with us when using other proprietary operating systems. An external link to the Oracle Technology Network is provided below where all Java SE 6 Runtime (JRE) and Java Development Kit (JDK) versions can be downloaded at the time of writing (01/2015).
No Oracle account or login is needed to download Java. Lets be honest, coding on Linux will probably include some Java based application like Eclipse or NetBeans. Java for Linux, Solaris and Window can be downloaded from the Oracle Technology Network.
