It seems it's not allowed sudo instead of su for calling root
permission. Sadly, I've not setup a su password. How to fix it?
Thank you.
Finally, I typed sudo before the code every time and it proceeded
successfully until the last line code proceeding. It said: Can't
locate the packages of oracla-java8-installer. Where occurs
errors?
Hi Jack,
2 things spring to mind.
Firstly, I would get a root shell using "sudo -s" instead of "su -" -
that should work with your sudo config, and doesn't need a root password.
Alternatively, when you used this line:
echo "deb ..." | tee /etc/apt/...java.list
did you put sudo in front of tee as well? Like this:
sudo echo "deb ..." | sudo tee /etc/apt/...java.list
Otherwise, I think tee won't run as root, and therefore won't be able
to write to the file. That might be why it couldn't find the packages.
I think I'd use the first option - get a root shell.
Richard
