1.  Go to terminal and type /sbin/init, this command to check your Ubuntu architecture weather it's 32 or 64 bit.

2. Check Java installed, type java-version on your terminal. If you have OpenJDK installed on your system it will give this results:
  • java version "1.7.0_60"
    OpenJDK Runtime Environment (IcedTea6 1.10pre) (7b15~pre1-0lucid1)

Remembered that OpenJDK is not same with JDK.

3. Remove OpenJDK/JRE from your system by running this command: sudo apt-get purge openjdk-\* 

 4. Download JDK from Download JDK .Please Remember to download JDK version which fits with your architecture system. For example, if your system running on 32 Bit download 32 Bit Oracle Java binaries.

5.After finished download the JDK file, copy your JDK file to '/usr/local/java'.
   sudo cp -r your-java-binaries /usr/local/java/ 

6.Go to '/usr/local/java/'. cd /usr/local/java/
