Java Runtime Environment 1.4.2 Installation

Question

I´ve got HP Proliant dl380 g3 and I can´t use few things from the "iLO(integrated lights-out)" because this tool needs the Java Runtime Environment 1.4.2 to run in my browser

HP does not support this Old server so I tried to install it by myself:

http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/java/javasebusiness/downloads/java-archive-downloads-javase14-419411.html#j2sdk-1.4.2_30-sol-JPR

I downloaded the j2re-1_4_2_19-linux-i586.bin and executed it in the terminal and this is the result:

Do you agree to the above license terms? [yes or no] 
yes
Unpacking...

./j2re-1_4_2_19-linux-i586.bin: 383: ./j2re-1_4_2_19-linux-i586.bin: ./install.sfx.5638: not found
Done.

Any idea of what should I do?

Thanks for your Time!

If you need an elder version of Sun Java (bought by Oracle), you need to download it from http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/java/archive-139210.html, unpack it yourself, and update your $PATH to point to it.  Possibly also your $JAVA_HOME for some tooling.

The oficial Installation Notes for Linux

Make sure that execute permissions are set Run this command:

chmod    +x j2re-1_4_2_-linux-i586.bin
Run the self-extracting binary.

Execute the downloaded file, prepended by the path to it. For
example, if the file is in the current directory, prepend it with "
./" (necessary if " ." is not in the PATH environment variable):

./j2re-1_4_2_-linux-i586.bin

Note about System Preferences: By default, the installation script
  configures the system such that the backing store for system
  preferences is created inside the Java 2 Runtime Environment's
  installation directory. If the J2RE is installed on a network-mounted
  drive, it and the system preferences can be exported for sharing with
  Java runtime environments on other machines. As an alternative, root
  users can use the -localinstall option when running the installation
  script, as in this example:
  
  j2re-1_4_2_-linux-i586.bin -localinstall This option causes
  the system preferences to be stored in the /etc directory from which
  they can be shared only by VMs running on the local machine. You must
  be root user for the -localinstall option to work.

lets try to install Full JDK(Java Development kit) JRE(Java Run-Time Environment) (included) to avoid problems.
type these in terminal if your system is Debian:
the first thing ,we need to add repository

sudo add-apt-repository ppa:webupd8team/java

do an update

sudo apt-get update

and finally installing jdk with jre

sudo apt-get install oracle-java8-installer

to verify that you installed java Successfully (optional)

java -version

as shown there how to install Java in Linux Deb
