Issue on installing SQL Developer on Linux (Ubuntu)

I'm trying to install SQL Developer on Linux (Ubuntu). But I have an issue about the required JDK; the installer does not recognize my actual version of JSE; it is specified in the Oracle documentation that the JDK 1.6.11 (or later but less than 1.7.n) is required, but I'm not able to find it since the latest JDK 6 version is 1.6.0.45. I'm pretty new on Linux so thanks for your patience :) Anyone can help please? Thanks a lot, Sivounette

If you have JDK7 installed you can use it with SQL Developer v3.2 - just ignore the warning.

Starting with v4 of SQL Developer, JDK7 will be required.

Some more info here on Java 7 and SQL Developer v3.2

Just make sure you have a JDK 6 installed on your system; I've always used Sun (now Oracle) JDK.

In your .bash_profile or .bashrc:

JAVA_HOME=/path/to/jdk/
PATH=$PATH:$JAVA_HOME/bin
