Download Java Development Kit 8 Offline Installer

This tutorial helps you to install Java 14 latest version or Java 11 LTS on macOS Sierra or High Sierra. Step 1 – Prerequisites Before starting the installation of Java using this tutorial you must have the following prerequisites. I've had a ‘manual' install of JDK 8 on my Mac for quite a while, mainly to run Clojure. It was the typical 'download from the Oracle website, then manually run the installer' deployment. As I move the management of more development tools from manual management over to homebrew, I decided to use homebrew to manage my Java installation. If you do not need Java, you should not install Java. Java is, and always has been, the source of many security holes. Here's how you can install JRE (Java Runtime Environment). Open Safari and go to the Oracle Java downloads page and download the JRE.tar.gz version. You should end up with a file named something similar to jre-8u65.

Java Development Kit is a full featured development environment for building applets, applications, and components in Java. JDK includes JRE and development tools which are used to develop, debug and monitor programs written in Java programming language. You can download JDK offline installer using direct links given later in this blog post.

Java SE Development Kit 8u241 is the latest release and it's recommended for developers to download the latest JDK version.

JDK offline installer lets you download and install JDK Development Kit on multiple PCs even without Internet connectivity. Java offline installer download links are official ones, therefore, it's 100% safe to download JDK 8u241 using these links.

If you want to run Java programs on your browser or computer, you would need to download JRE, on the other hand, to develop Java programs, you need to download Java SE Development Kit 8 offline installer.

JDK 8 offline installer is available for Windows, MacOS, Linux, and Solaris. You can download JDK 32-bit or JDK 64-bit as per your system requirements.

Note: Before you start downloading JDK 8 update 241, you need to accept OTN license terms as Oracle doesn't allow automatic JDK download. For this, visit the official Oracle site and click on 'Accept License Agreement' radio button (see the screenshot). Now you will be able to download JDK 8u241 using the links given below.

If you don't accept Oracle's OTN license terms, the following error will be displayed when you click on the JDK download link.

Update III – 2020-05-06: There are now alternatives available to using the official Oracle Java 8 JDK. I'm currently using AdoptOpenJDK‘s version that you can install by usingbrew cask install adoptopenjdk8. So far this seems to do everything I need a JDK for. Just keep in mind that I mostly use my JDKs when I'm working on Clojure code.

Update II – 2019-05-07: It looks like due to the recent licensing changes, the Java 8 JDK that brew used is not directly accessible anymore and likely behind some kind of paywall. The installation method described below will still work as it uses the non-versioned java cask, which installs the latest version of OpenJDK.

Update: The title of this post isn't quite correct – using the homebrew cask mentioned in this blog post will install the current major version of the Oracle JDK. If you want to install a specific major version of the JDK (6 or 8 at the time of writing), I describe how to do that in this new blog post.

Oracle Java 8 Download Mac Os

I've had a ‘manual' install of JDK 8 on my Mac for quite a while, mainly to run Clojure. It was the typical 'download from the Oracle website, then manually run the installer' deployment. As I move the management of more development tools from manual management over to homebrew, I decided to use homebrew to manage my Java installation also. It's just so much easier to get updates and update information all in one place. Oh, and installs the same JDK anyway, just without all the additional pointy clicky work.

Removing the existing installation

Fortunately Oracle has uninstall operations on their website. It's a rather manual approach but at least it is documented and the whole procedure consists of three commands. Unfortunately in my case this didn't end up uninstalling an older version of the JDK. For some reason, I had ended up with both 1.8.0_60 and 1.8.0_131 installed on my machine, and Oracle's uninstall instructions didn't touch the 1.8.0_60 install in /System/Library/Frameworks/JavaVM.framework. I suspect this is an older JDK brought over from the Yosemite install and the consensus on the Internet I could find suggest to leave that alone as the system needs those.

Apparently in older versions of OS X is was possible to run /usr/libexec/java_home -uninstall to get rid of a Java install, but that option does not appear to work in OS X Sierra anymore

The installation via homebrew is about as simple as expected. I have cask installed already, so for me it's a simple matter of running

If you haven't got homebrew installed, follow the installation instructions on docs.brew.sh and also make sure that you install cask:

After re-installing the JDK using homebrew, java_home also finally reports the correct version:
