Install JDK7 on OpenSuse

This is for a 64bit system:
Download Oracle’s JDK7 RPM package for 64bit Linux. The filename should be “jdk-7-linux-x64.rpm”.

Then as root:

zypper install jdk-7-linux-x64.rpm
cd /usr/java/jdk1.7.0/bin
for bin in *; do update-alternatives --install /usr/bin/$bin $bin $(pwd)/$bin 20000; done

No JDK found to run PyCharm. Please validate either PYCHARM_JDK, JDK_HOME or JAVA_HOME environment variable points to valid JDK installation.

Please could your help?

  Try adding this line to your ~/.bashrc file:
  export JAVA_HOME=/usr/java/jdk1.7.0
  
  Log out and log in again and try this in a terminal:
  echo $JAVA_HOME
  
  It should show: “/usr/java/jdk1.7.0”
  
  Then run PyCharm.
