oracle-java8-installer Webupd8 PPA 404 Not Found

The following error is thrown when you execute sudo apt-get install oracle-java8-installer:

Location: http://download.oracle.com/otn-pub/java/jdk/8u144-b01/090f390dda5b47b9b721c7dfaa008135/jdk-8u144-linux-x64.tar.gz?AuthParam=1508340360_7be4aa21e145dd26bda475add7c27ada [following]

                    Proxy request sent, awaiting response... 404 Not Found

A temporarily workaround is:

cd /var/lib/dpkg/info
sudo sed -i 's|JAVA_VERSION=8u144|JAVA_VERSION=8u152|' oracle-java8-installer.*
sudo sed -i 's|PARTNER_URL=http://download.oracle.com/otn-pub/java/jdk/8u144-b01/090f390dda5b47b9b721c7dfaa008135/|PARTNER_URL=http://download.oracle.com/otn-pub/java/jdk/8u152-b16/aa0333dd3019491ca4f6ddbe78cdb6d0/|' oracle-java8-installer.*
sudo sed -i 's|SHA256SUM_TGZ="e8a341ce566f32c3d06f6d0f0eeea9a0f434f538d22af949ae58bc86f2eeaae4"|SHA256SUM_TGZ="218b3b340c3f6d05d940b817d0270dfe0cfd657a636bad074dcabe0c111961bf"|' oracle-java8-installer.*

The ppa is great and I appreciate the work put into it. Recently oracle changed the paths and the ppa needs to be updated until it works again. In the mean time I found this workaround from the ubuntu forum helpful to install jdk8 (I removed the docker specific stuff):

### workaround to install oracle jdk8 until ppa will be updated
# install java via wget site oficial oracle
# note: JAVA_FILE_TAR, JAVA_URL_DOWNLOAD and JAVA_DIR  must be entered manually
export JAVA_FILE_TAR=jdk-8u191-linux-x64.tar.gz
export JAVA_URL_DOWNLOAD="http://download.oracle.com/otn-pub/java/jdk/8u191-b12/2787e4a523244c269598db4e85c51e0c/${JAVA_FILE_TAR}"
export JAVA_DIR=jdk1.8.0_191
# download and extract tar
cd /opt
wget -q --no-check-certificate -c --header "Cookie: oraclelicense=accept-securebackup-cookie" ${JAVA_URL_DOWNLOAD}
tar zxvf ${JAVA_FILE_TAR} && pwd && ls -la
# set default java
update-alternatives --install /usr/bin/java java /opt/${JAVA_DIR}/bin/java 1
update-alternatives --install /usr/bin/javac javac /opt/${JAVA_DIR}/bin/javac 1
update-alternatives --install /usr/bin/jar jar /opt/${JAVA_DIR}/bin/jar 1
# set temp env vars
export JAVA_HOME=/opt/${JAVA_DIR}
export PATH=$PATH:/opt/${JAVA_DIR}/bin:/opt/${JAVA_DIR}/jre/bin
echo "export JAVA_HOME=/opt/${JAVA_DIR}" >> /etc/environment
echo "export PATH=$PATH:/opt/${JAVA_DIR}/bin:/opt/${JAVA_DIR}/jre/bin" >> /etc/environment

Late answer but I just found out another way to install java without any problems.

Just install openjdk 8

apt-get install openjdk-8-jre-headless

then test it through

java -version
