See [Install-jdk.sh failing for openjdk9 and 10](https://travis-ci.community/t/install-jdk-sh-failing-for-openjdk9-and-10/3998/21) ; very likely to be the same set of problems caused by [https://github.com/travis-ci/travis-cookbooks/issues/976](https://github.com/travis-ci/travis-cookbooks/issues/976) , as best I can tell what is happening. ---

Ya except I am able to get JDK7 to install here [https://travis-ci.org/pgjdbc/pgjdbc-jre7/jobs/553783431](https://travis-ci.org/pgjdbc/pgjdbc-jre7/jobs/553783431) Is there a long term solution to this? ---

jdk7 and 8 are the only versions which have been stable for me over the last few weeks. (but I havent been using 13+) which is a bit ironic because the installer script seems to only be CI tested on jdk9+ I guess the installer script will be enhanced soon, or an alternative implemented. ---

As per [The Trusty Build Environment - Travis CI](https://docs.travis-ci.com/user/reference/trusty#jvm-clojure-groovy-java-scala-images) , you need to install OpenJDK 6 with `apt`: > OpenJDK 6 is not installed. To use OpenJDK 6, install [`openjdk-6-jdk` package](https://packages.ubuntu.com/trusty/openjdk-6-jdk). For example, using [`apt` addon](https://docs.travis-ci.com/user/installing-dependencies/): > > ```auto > addons: > apt: > packages: > - openjdk-6-jdk > jdk: openjdk6 > > ``` ---

This has worked flawlessly up until the recent removal of Oracle jdk’s without apt packages ---

It is my experience that everything on [docs.travis-ci.com](http://docs.travis-ci.com) wrt JDKs is outdated and mostly is incorrect due to [https://github.com/travis-ci/travis-cookbooks/issues/976](https://github.com/travis-ci/travis-cookbooks/issues/976) . “In flux” seems to be the current situation. The big O company gets some of the blame, but it has been in the pipes for a long time. ---

It’s not even supposed to work at all in precise. The most recent build does install it manually just so I could get it working. I agree “in flux” seems to be correct. ---

Any update on this? I’m using this code, which I took from the [Travis’ official doc](https://docs.travis-ci.com/user/reference/trusty/#jvm-clojure-groovy-java-scala-images): ```auto dist: trusty language: java addons: apt: packages: - openjdk-6-jdk jdk: - openjdk6 ``` and my build fails during setup saying `install-jdk.sh Expected feature release number in range of 9 to 14, but got: 6` [(build job)](https://travis-ci.org/dialex/JCDP/jobs/606841177) Am I doing something wrong? How can I use Java 6 on Travis?
