So my current openjdk version is 11.0.23 and i needed to update it to 11.0.24.
I downloaded the package and extracted it on the system.
Then the extracted files has some bunch of folders and stuff.
How do you actually install this to the system?
Thanks in advance.

Downvoting this is peak reddit.
draeath@reddit
lol, they caught downvotes for thanking me for helping them elsewhere in the thread.
I get downvoting bad ideas, "stupid" questions and the like - but why the heck do people downvote something like a thank-you?

Why are you using an unsupported OS?

CentOS 7 is end of life, no more support. Why are you using a dead release?

You don't. Upgrade to a supported OS. And then use sdkman to install java 11.

hello fellow https://sdkman.io/jdks/ user!

I only learned about it in the last year! It sure makes dealing with JDKs much nicer!

How did you install the current 11.0.23 version?
daygamer77@reddit (OP)
using yum install, system is centos 7, i cannot just use yum update because there is no longer update on cent 7.
devilkin@reddit
Stop using centos 7 and move to rocky Linux

Google how to update to Red Hat from CentOS or the quasi CentOS replacement. It is supposed to be a somewhat easy update.
ThatPlayingDude@reddit
Download rpm file and do rpm -ivh

I would use mamba-forge and run openjdk from an environment, especially on centos 7

tar -xf openjdk...
cd openjdk...
./configure
make
make install
