Direct downloads are no longer available. Create your Oracle account, download, and put in with the PKGBUILD.

New and improved. Now you can just download to ~/Downloads then run the update.

It is possible to download the jdk tarball after logging in. It seems oracle messed up their link redirection. You can use this link to download jdk 8 :[https://edelivery.oracle.com/akam/otn/java/jdk/8u261-b12/a4634525489241b9a9e1aa73d9e118e6/jdk-8u261-linux-x64.tar.gz]

You can download other jdk the same way I believe. After sign in goto download page and click download on the preferred jdk. The link will fail as of now, blame oracle. But you can check the address bar. The link will have a redirect parameter with the actual working download link. Simply remove everything from beginning upto the 'redirect=' parameter or copy and paste the redirect link and you will be able to download the jdk tar ball.

Theres an error when installing this.

Is there any fix?

For those running tiling window managers like dwm and don't have a XDG_DOWNLOAD_DIR or don't know how to set it, just put the tar.gz file in the same build directory. If anyone is having trouble downloading the new JDK8 261 update just follow the Pinned comment instruction about creating an oracle account, then download the x64 .tar.gz (or your architecture's) then from your browser Copy Download Link which will look something like this: https://download.oracle.com/otn/java/jdk/8u261-b12/a4634525489241b9a9e1aa73d9e118e6/jdk-8u261-linux-x64.tar.gz?AuthParam=1595086755_e25e5744730391bb437a6b58a2460f0c

In the direct download link you will get the version-buildID-hash right after "jdk/" in this case my direct download link looks like: -8u261- (minor) -b12- (build) -a4634525489241b9a9e1aa73d9e118e6 (hash)

Modify the PKGBUILD and add those.

PKGEXT can now be '.pkg.tar.zst' ?

@gameslayer It's put in black and white - package needs to be downloaded manually. It's even printed you URL to site, where you can register and download it.

If you can't register at some reason - please use my repository for built package download. https://dx37.gitlab.io/dx37essentials/

I am having an issue relating to the jce_policy-8.zip file. This does not appear to be available from oracle anymore, I am unable to download it manually. ERROR: Failure while downloading https://download.oracle.com/otn-pub/java/jce/8/jce_policy-8.zip

From Oracle's information provided here https://www.oracle.com/java/technologies/javase-jce-all-downloads.html: The unlimited policy files for earlier releases available here are required only for JDK 8, 7, and 6 updates earlier than 8u161, 7u171, and 6u16. On those versions and later the policy files are included, but not enabled by default.

With the latest being 8u251, can we exclude these from attempting to download, or is this still required?

I am unable to install JDK8 without the JCE policy. Any assistance is appreciated.
