I recently had to upgrade to a VPS server (HostGator Linux) because I wanted to run a script that was a bit more complicated than the regular PHP db manipulation. I'm trying to install a JDK and Apache Ant (if it matters, for compiling Android Apps on server).
I watched tutorials on Linux Bash and started using it. I am currently trying to install Java (with JDK and JRE) on to the server.
I am following the tutorial on this page: http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/java/javase/install-linux-64-self-extracting-142068.html
However, I don't know what to do at this line:
Download and check the download file size.
You can download to any directory that you can write to.
How do I download Java from the command line?
If it matters, I am running CentOS v5.8

Using SCP (SSH) With the SCP command, you can transfer files from your computer to your Linux server and vice versa. As this utility uses SSH to move files, you'll need the SSH credential of your server to transfer files.
Scp Command The "scp" command is a secure version of the Unix copy command "cp." Once you establish an SSH session with the remote machine, locate the file you wish to copy. The "scp" command is a better option if you have only a few files to transfer. The "-p" flag preserved the file modification and access times.
Using wget
wget -O /tmp/myfile 'http://www.google.com/logo.jpg' or curl:
curl -o /tmp/myfile 'http://www.google.com/logo.jpg' You can use the command wget to download from command line. Specifically, you could use
wget http://download.oracle.com/otn-pub/java/jdk/7u10-b18/jdk-7u10-linux-x64.tar.gz However because Oracle requires you to accept a license agreement this may not work (and I am currently unable to test it).
