[Bug 134782] Java Runtime Environment can't Install

[Launchpad Bug Tracker]

You have been subscribed to a public bug:

Version: Ubuntu 7.04 with all Updates installed
Browser: Firefox 2
Computer Specs:
- Intel Celeron 2.4 GHz
- Intel Extreme 2 Graphics
- Integrated Audio
- 256 MB of RAM
- 80 GB HDD

When I visited a website, Firefox gave me a message in the information
bar at the top that said "Additional Plugins are required to display all
the media on this page". So i clicked "Install Missing Plugins" and then
the Plugin finder service window shows up. The plugin finder service
said that i needed the "Java Runtime Environment" and offered to install
it for me. I clicked next and it said that no plugins were installed and
said that i could manually install the plugin. So i clicked Manual
Install and then Finish on the Plugin Finder service window. Then it
Opened up a new Firefox windows at the Java Software Website
(http://java.com/en/download/index.jsp). I then clicked "Download Now"
and then tried both the "Linux Self Extracting" and the "Linux RPM Self
Extracting" files using "Open with". None of them worked and it gave me
an error message in Ubuntu when i tried to install it that said: "tmp
/jre-6u2-linux-i586-rpm-1.bin could not be opened, because the
associated helper application does not exist. Change the association in
your preferences."
