I get following error /usr/local/java/jdk1.7.0_25/jre/lib/i386/xawt/libmawt.so: libXtst.so.6: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

Installation stops there. I checked and in the directory mentioned there is no file like libXtst.so.6 . The Java ( oracle ) installation is from latest download. java version and javac version gives the required outputs.

This error can occur if /usr/local/java/jdk1.7.0_25 is the 32 bit (i586) version and the application calling it requires the 64 bit version of the JDK.

    So... Then how to fix this? As it currently stands it's more a comment rather than an answer.
