I have some software that says it requires JRE 8.1 or higher.
That's very odd, since technically JRE 8 is java 1.8 (and JRE 7 is/was 1.7; JRE 6 was 1.6, et cetera).
If I go to
http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/java/javase/downloads/jre8-downloads-21331 55.html
and install jre-8u144-linux-x64.rpm I get jrel.8.0_144. Anyone know where
I can get 8.1?
http://javadl.oracle.com/webapps/download/AutoDL?BundleId=225344_090f390dda5 b47b9b721c7dfaa008135 should get you the 64-bit v1.8 build 144 of Java, which is indeed the latest version.
What software is it that requires JRE 8.1?
Sorry I mistyped it says 1.8 or greater. I did install that and I still get the message. It's remote control software for an IBM system.
