installation in ubuntu 12.04
Hi,
I'm having trouble installing in Ubuntu 12.04
I've tried the suggestions at http://help.infinitekind.com/kb/frequently-asked-questions-2/moneyd...
If I try
sudo add-apt-repository ppa:nilarimogard/webupd8
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install update-java
then I get the following output:
The following NEW packages will be installed:
update-java 0 upgraded, 1 newly installed, 0 to remove and 9 not
upgraded.
1 not fully installed or removed.
Need to get 4,318 B of archives.
After this operation, 45.1 kB of additional disk space will be
used.

If I try:
sudo add-apt-repository ppa:webupd8team/java
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install oracle-java7-installer
then the output ends with:

After doing both of these, I rebooted and tried to install from
the .deb package via the Ubuntu software centre again, installation
fails, and I get the following error log:

What can I do? It sometimes looks as if failed previous installations are interfering. How can I fully purge a previous (failed) install?
Thanks for your help. I am very much looking forward to having moneydance up and running again.

Hi Jeremy,
This seems to be an issue with Java and 64bit systems. Please try and use this deb installer and let us know if you're still having the same issue:

The no Java version works nicely.
I appreciate that you took the time to reply.
