Im getting an error "Oops, something went wrong" when trying to install the "unoffical java installer" package. I've installed this many times without issue, however after removing it yesterday due to an issue with getting filebot to start, i now cannot install it again.

Log is showing a 404 error with the URL its trying the pull the java installer from.

The current package version showing in package centre is 8_171, where as oracle are now only distributing 8_181

I can download the .tar.gz package version 181 from oracle directly, however i'm unable to manually install it.

Are you able to update the package to 181, or could you provide manual install instructions for a bit of a novice.

Can send over screenshots if required.

Presumably, you're using Synology DSM. I'll update the SPK packages on the weekend, if I have time.

The new Java 8 Installer package is already in the FileBot SPK repository. Please try and let me know if there's any issues.
