When I try to download Java from Oracle I instead end up downloading a page telling me that I need agree to the OTN license terms.

Sorry!

In order to download products from Oracle Technology Network you must agree to the OTN license terms.

Be sure that...

  • Your browser has "cookies" and JavaScript enabled.
  • You clicked on "Accept License" for the product you wish to download.
  • You attempt the download within 30 minutes of accepting the license.

How can I download and install Java?

ORIGINAL ANSWER FROM 9th June 2012

If you are looking to download the Oracle JDK from the command line using wget, there is a workaround. Run the wget command as follows:

wget --no-cookies --header "Cookie: gpw_e24=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.oracle.com" "http://download.oracle.com/otn-pub/java/jdk/7/jdk-7-linux-x64.tar.gz"

Be sure to replace the download link with the correct one for the version you are downloading.

(Irani updated to my answer, but here's to clarify it all.)

Edit: Updated for Java 16.0.1, released in 20th April, 2021

Wget

wget -c --header "Cookie: oraclelicense=accept-securebackup-cookie" https://download.oracle.com/otn-pub/java/jdk/16.0.1+9/7147401fd7354114ac51ef3e1328291f/jdk-16.0.1_linux-x64_bin.tar.gz

See the downloads in oracle.com for more.

  • -c / --continue

Allows continuing an unfinished download.

  • --header "Cookie: oraclelicense=accept-securebackup-cookie"

Since 15th March 2014 this cookie is provided to the user after accepting the License Agreement and is necessary for accessing the Java packages in download.oracle.com. The previous (and first) implementation in 27th March 2012 made use of the cookie gpw_e24=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.oracle.com[...]. Both cases remain unannounced to the public.

The value doesn't have to be "accept-securebackup-cookie".

Not required

  • --no-cookies

The combination --no-cookies --header "Cookie: name=value" is mentioned as the "official" cookie support, but not strictly required here.

cURL

curl -L -C - -b "oraclelicense=accept-securebackup-cookie" -O https://download.oracle.com/otn-pub/java/jdk/16.0.1+9/7147401fd7354114ac51ef3e1328291f/jdk-16.0.1_linux-x64_bin.tar.gz
  • -L / --location

Required for cURL to redirect through all the mirrors.

  • -C / --continue-at -

See above. cURL requires the dash (-) in the end.

  • -b / --cookie "oraclelicense=accept-securebackup-cookie"

Same as -H / --header "Cookie: ...", but accepts files too.

  • -O

Required for cURL to save files (see [author's comparison][8] for more differences).

Downloading Java from the command line has always been troublesome. What I have been doing reciently is to use FireFox (other browsers might work) to get a download started on my laptop, pause it (within the Downloads windows), use the "Copy Download Link" menu item of the context menu displayed for the downloading file. This URL can then be used on the Linux box to download the same file. I expect the URL has a short time to live. Ugly, but generally successful.

I know that Oracle made everything possible to make their Java Runtime and Java SDK as hard as possible.

Here are some guides for command line lovers.

For Debian like systems (tested on Debian squeeze and Ubuntu 12.x+)

su -
echo "deb http://ppa.launchpad.net/webupd8team/java/ubuntu precise main" | tee -a /etc/apt/sources.list
echo "deb-src http://ppa.launchpad.net/webupd8team/java/ubuntu precise main" | tee -a /etc/apt/sources.list
apt-key adv --keyserver keyserver.ubuntu.com --recv-keys EEA14886
apt-get update
apt-get install --yes oracle-java7-installer
exit

Note: if you know a better or easier way add a comment, I will update the guide.

Oracle has put a prevention cookie on the download link to force you to agree to the terms even though the license agreement to use Java clearly states that merely by using Java you 'agree' to the license..

The method that Oracle wants is you to download it with an agreement. After that, this script cn be modified for your specific Linux

#!/bin/bash
#Author: Yucca Nel http://thejarbar.org
#Will restart system
#Modify these variables as needed...
tempWork=/tmp/work
locBin=/usr/local/bin
javaUsrLib=/usr/lib/jvm

sudo mkdir -p $javaUsrLib
mkdir -p $tempWork
cd $tempWork

#Extract the download
tar -zxvf $downloadDir/jdk*tar.gz

#Move it to where it can be found...

sudo mv -f $tempWork/jdk* $javaUsrLib/

sudo ln -f -s $javaUsrLib/jdk1/bin/* /usr/bin/

#Update this line to reflect versions of JDK...
export JAVA_HOME="$javaUsrLib/jdk1.7.0_03"
#Extract the download
tar -zxvf $tempWork/*

#Move it to where it can be found...

sudo mv -f $tempWork/jdk1* $javaUsrLib/

sudo ln -f -s $javaUsrLib/jdk1*/bin/* /usr/bin/
sudo rm -rf $tempWork
#Update this line to reflect newer versions of JDK...
export JAVA_HOME="$javaUsrLib/jdk1.7.0_03"

then
    echo "JAVA_HOME=$javaUsrLib/jdk1.7.0_03"| sudo tee -a /etc/environment

Instead of using for every new Java version a new link or changing existing scripts, I was looking for a more generic way to automate the download of the required Java packages and later installation via yum localinstall ${JAVA_ENVIRONMENT}-${JAVA_VERSION}-linux-x64.rpm.

I've used a somehow trivial approach similar to manual/user action to find the package and to download it. I am also pretty sure that one will find a more elegant way to do it by using other tools like egrep, awk, etc.., so leave it as an example here:

#!/bin/bash

### Proxy settings
# If there is a company proxy 

PROXY="my.proxy.local:8080"
PROXY_TYPE="--proxy-ntlm" # or leave empty with ""
USER="user"
PASS='pass'

### Find out the links to JRE and JDK 
# To do so, got to the page http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/java/javase/downloads/

BASE_URL="technetwork/java/javase/downloads"

# Put the whole page into a single string/line

BASE_URL_OUTPUT="$(curl -s -k ${PROXY_TYPE} -x "http://${USER}:${PASS}@${PROXY}" -L0 http://www.oracle.com/${BASE_URL}/)"

# Define the environments to download 

JAVA_ENVIRONMENTS=("JRE" "JDK") # ! yet "SERVER-JRE"

for JAVA_ENVIRONMENT in "${JAVA_ENVIRONMENTS[@]}"
do

echo
echo "JAVA_ENVIRONMENT="$JAVA_ENVIRONMENT
echo

for (( JAVA_BASE_VERSION = 8; JAVA_BASE_VERSION <= 10; JAVA_BASE_VERSION += 2 ))  
do

echo "JAVA_BASE_VERSION="$JAVA_BASE_VERSION

### "Read the page"
# and follow the links for the package interested in 

DOWNLOAD_SITE="$(echo $BASE_URL_OUTPUT | grep -m 1 -io "${JAVA_ENVIRONMENT}${JAVA_BASE_VERSION}-downloads-[0-9]*.html" -- | tail -1)"
echo "DOWNLOAD_SITE="$DOWNLOAD_SITE

### Gather the necessary download links
# To do so, following the link to the download site
# reading and accept the license 
# 
# ... the greedy regular expression is to address the different syntax of the links
# and already prepared for OR .gz files 

DOWNLOAD_LINK_OUTPUT="$(curl -s -k ${PROXY_TYPE} -x "http://${USER}:${PASS}@${PROXY}" -L -j -H "Cookie: oraclelicense=accept-securebackup-cookie" http://www.oracle.com/${BASE_URL}/${DOWNLOAD_SITE} |  grep -io "filepath.*${JAVA_ENVIRONMENT}-[${JAVA_BASE_VERSION}].*linux[-_]x64[._].*\(rpm\)" -- | cut -d '"' -f 3 | tail -1)"

# and echo out the link

echo "DOWNLOAD_LINK_OUTPUT="$DOWNLOAD_LINK_OUTPUT

done

done

Since the download links are available now, one may proceed further with wget or curl.

All of the above seem to assume you know the URL for the latest Java RPM...

Oracle provide persistent links to the latest updates of each Java version as documented at https://support.oracle.com/epmos/faces/DocumentDisplay?_afrLoop=397248601136938&id=1414485.1 - though you need to create/log in to an Oracle Support account. *Otherwise you can only access the last "public" update of each Java version, e.g. 1.6_u45 (Mar 2013; Latest update is u65, Oct 2013)*

Once you know the persistent link, you should be able to resolve it to the real download; The following works for me, though I don't yet know if the "aru" reference changes.

ME=<myOracleID>
PW=<myOraclePW>
PATCH_FILE=p13079846_17000_Linux-x86-64.zip

echo "Get real URL from the persistent link"

wget -o getrealurl.out --no-cookies --no-check-certificate --user=$ME \
--password=$PW --header "Cookie: gpw_e24=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.oracle.com" \
https://updates.oracle.com/Orion/Services/download/$PATCH_FILE?aru=16884382&\
patch_file=$PATCH_FILE

wait    # wget appears to go into background, so "wait" waits 
        # until all background processes complete

REALURL=`grep "^--" getrealurl.out |tail -1 |sed -e 's/.*http/http/'`
wget -O $PATCH_FILE $REALURL
#These last steps must be done quickly, as the REALURL seems to have a short-lived 
#cookie on it and I've had no success with  --keep-session-cookies etc.

Update for JDK 8 Update 121

Since Oracle inserted some md5hash in their download links, one cannot automatically assemble a download link for command line.

So I tinkered some nasty bash command line to get the latest jdk download link, download it and directly install via rpm. For all who are interested:

wget -q http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/java/javase/downloads/index.html -O ./index.html && grep -Eoi ']+>' index.html | grep -Eoi '/technetwork/java/javase/downloads/jdk8-downloads-[0-9]+.html' | (head -n 1) | awk '{print "http://www.oracle.com"$1}' | xargs wget --no-cookies --header "Cookie: gpw_e24=xxx; oraclelicense=accept-securebackup-cookie;" -O index.html -q && grep -Eoi '"filepath":"[^"]+jdk-8u[0-9]+-linux-x64.rpm"' index.html | grep -Eoi 'http:[^"]+' | xargs wget --no-cookies --header "Cookie: gpw_e24=xxx; oraclelicense=accept-securebackup-cookie;" -q -O ./jdk8.rpm && sudo rpm -i ./jdk8.rpm

The bold part should be replaced by the package of your liking.

I solve this (for Debian based Linux distros) by making packages using java-package a few times (for various architectures), then distributing them internally.

The big plus side is that this method always works; no matter how crazy Oracle's web pages become. Oracle can no longer break my build!

The downside is that it's a bit more work to set up initially.

  • Download the tar.gz files manually in a browser (thus "accepting" their terms)
  • Run make-jpkg jdk-7u51-linux-x64.tar.gz. This creates oracle-java8-jdk_8_amd64.deb
  • Distribute it within your organization

For distribution over the Internet, I suggest using a password protected apt repository or provide raw packages using symmetric encryption:

passphrase="Hard to crack string. Use /dev/urandom for inspiration."
gpg --batch --symmetric --force-mdc --passphrase-fd 0 \
   oracle-java8-jdk_8_amd64.deb <<< "$passphrase"

Of course providing (unencrypted) .deb packages on the internet is probably a violation of your license agreement with Oracle, which states:

... Oracle grants you a ... license ... to reproduce and use internally the Software complete and unmodified for the sole purpose of running Programs"

On the receiving end, if you have a password protected apt repo, all you need to do is apt-get install it. If you have raw packages, download, decrypt and dpkg -i them. Works like a charm!

The accepted answer was not working for me, as of 2017-04-25. However, the simple solution was using the -b flag instead of the --header option.

For example, to get jdk-1.8_131:

version='8u131'; wget -H -O jdk-$version-linux-x64.tar.gz --no-check-certificate --no-cookies -b "oraclelicense=a" http://download.oracle.com/otn-pub/java/jdk/$version-b11/jdk-$version-linux-x64.tar.gz

That will execute in the background, writing output to wget-log.

I've made a jdk-download script (specific for the tar.gz) for my gentoo boxes. Doesn't need to be updated like other similar scripts, trying to "brute-force" download the latest build for whatever version you want.

USAGE

jdk-download< <version> <platform> [<build>]

* <version> - Something like "8u40"
* <platform> - Usually i586 or x64
* <build> - The internal build number used by oracle, to avoid guessing and trying to download starting from 99 to 1 (build 0, really?!!)

oracle-java-download is a project on GitHub that allows you to create download links for JDK 8 and JDK 9 which you can use for further processing e.g in automated build or deployment processes.

It requires Linux, Docker and a JDK >= 8 to run.

Context

I recently faced the same problem and although the comments on this page and some others provided helpful hints - I thought it would be good to document the steps I took to fix the problem for folks who may be in need of further help.

System Details

I am following the PNDA set up on AWS by following the step by step pnda installation guide at:

https://github.com/pndaproject/pnda-guide/blob/develop/provisioning/aws/PREPARE.md

I am using ubuntu 14.04 [free tier eligible] on AWS cloud, and am running the code from 64 bit windows8.1 laptop. I am using PUTTY to connect to the server instance. I git cloned the pnda code from https://github.com/pndaproject/pnda to the ubuntu instance.

Important Note Please note that if you plan to use Ubuntu instance on AWS make sure it's 14.04 only. If you use version 16, it does not work. I learnt it the hard way!

Resolution Steps

As those who have gone as far as to have encountered the error being discussed here would know - the mirror creation file involves the following steps -

1) Run the script create_mirror.sh [ sudo su -s ./create_mirror.sh ] to run the full mirror creation process

2) This script in turn calls various other scripts - one of them being create_mirror_misc.sh; this script refers to pnda-static-file-dependencies.txt which has a list of files to be downloaded.

3) On the very first line of the pnda-static-file-dependencies.txt is a reference to download the jdk-8u131-linux-x64.tar.gz file from http://download.oracle.com/otn-pub/java/jdk/8u131-b11/d54c1d3a095b4ff2b6607d096fa80163/jdk-8u131-linux-x64.tar.gz oraclelicense=accept-securebackup-cookie; It is at this point that my script was failing with the message Failed to download http://download.oracle.com/otn-pub/java/jdk/8u131-b11/d54c1d3a095b4ff2b6607d096fa80163/jdk-8u131-linux-x64.tar.gz after 3 retries

4) I browsed to the page http://download.oracle.com/otn-pub/java/jdk/8u131-b11/d54c1d3a095b4ff2b6607d096fa80163/jdk-8u131-linux-x64.tar.gz and found the following error message displayed **In order to download products from Oracle Technology Network you must agree to the OTN license terms**

5) To resolve this problem I made the following change to the pnda-static-file-dependencies.txt; I added --no-check-certificate --no-cookies to bypass the license term agreement condition

6) So the revised code looks like - http://download.oracle.com/otn-pub/java/jdk/8u131-b11/d54c1d3a095b4ff2b6607d096fa80163/jdk-8u131-linux-x64.tar.gz --no-check-certificate --no-cookies oraclelicense=accept-securebackup-cookie

I hope this is helpful.

you should try:

wget \
        --no-cookies \
        --header "Cookie: oraclelicense=accept-securebackup-cookie" \
        http://download.oracle.com/otn-pub/java/jdk/8u172-b11/a58eab1ec242421181065cdc37240b08/jdk-8u172-linux-x64.tar.gz \
        -O java.tar.gz

Here's how to get the command yourself. This works for any version:

  1. Access packages page here: https://www.oracle.com/java/technologies/javase-jdk11-downloads.html
  2. Click the download link for your desired package
  3. Check the box indicating that you have "reviewed and accept..."
  4. Right-click & Copy the link address from the button
  5. Paste into a text editor and then copy everything AFTER 'nexturl=', beginning with 'https://'
  6. Update the download URL in this command and you should be good to go:

    wget --no-check-certificate -c --header "Cookie: oraclelicense=accept-securebackup-cookie" https://download.oracle.com/otn/java/jdk/11.0.6+8/90eb79fb590d45c8971362673c5ab495/jdk-11.0.6_linux-x64_bin.tar.gz

To further explain the wget, the --no-check-certificate should be clear enough, but the header content (for any call) is discoverable by using the Developer Tools Network Tab in your browser. The developer tools are powerful and are well worth the time to learn. Enjoy.

This happens because when you click the "Accept" button on the download page in your browser, the webpage saves a cookie that it uses to check your agreement before letting you download the file. The problem occurs when trying to download from the command line using wget and it's because there's no cookie information sent with the wget request for downloading the file so from the file server's perspective, you're a completely new user who hasn't accepted the license agreement.

One solution is to send cookie information using the --header option of the wget utility (as shown above in other answers). Ideally if some content is protected, you'd use the various session management options available with wget. For this particular problem however, it's solved (currently) by sending the Cookie header with the download request.

@eric answer did the trick for me, you need to accept terms in the command you are setting i.e

"Cookie: oraclelicense=accept-securebackup-cookie"

so your final command looks thus

wget -c --header "Cookie: oraclelicense=accept-securebackup-cookie" http://download.oracle.com/otn-pub/java/jdk/8u131-b11/d54c1d3a095b4ff2b6607d096fa80163/jdk-8u131-linux-x64.tar.gz

You can decide to update the version by changing 8u131 to 8uXXX. so long it is available in the repo.

sudo wget --no-check-certificate --no-cookies --header "Cookie: gpw_e24=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.oracle.com" "http://download.oracle.com/otn-pub/java/jdk/7u45-b18/jdk-7u45-linux-x64.rpm"

Why not click to download from your browser then copy & paste the exact link where it was downloaded, for example:

wget http://download.oracle.com/otn-pub/java/jdk/7u40-b43/jdk-7u40-linux-x64.tar.gz?AuthParam=1380225131_dd70d2038c57a4729d8c0226684xxxx

You can find out the link by looking at the network tab of your browser after accepting terms in oracle and clicking to download. F12 in Chrome. Firebug in Firefox.
