Setting up oracle-java11-installer-local (11.0.4-1~linuxuprising1) ...
Before installing this package,
please download the Oracle JDK 11 .tar.gz file
with the same version as this package (version 11.0.4),
and place it in /var/cache/oracle-jdk11-installer-local,

E.g.:
sudo mkdir -p /var/cache/oracle-jdk11-installer-local
sudo cp jdk-11.0.4_linux-x64_bin.tar.gz /var/cache/oracle-jdk11-installer-local/
sha256sum mismatch jdk-11.0.4_linux-x64_bin.tar.gz
Oracle JDK 11 is NOT installed.
dpkg: error processing package oracle-java11-installer-local (--configure):

Errors were encountered while processing:
 oracle-java11-installer-local
E: Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (1)

Solution 1:

Run the following command:

sudo rm -rf /var/cache/oracle-jdk11-installer-local

sudo rm /var/lib/dpkg/info/oracle*
sudo apt purge oracle-java11-installer*
sudo rm /etc/apt/sources.list.d/*java*
sudo apt autoremove

Solution 2:

I went to the directory /var/cache/oracle-jdk11-installer-local using the file manager (Nautilus), confirmed it was there and then opened a terminal and typed:

sudo rm -r /var/cache/oracle-jdk11-installer-local 

That seemed to fix it.
