Install SQL Developer on Ubuntu 10.04 LTS

I have installed SQL Developer multiple times on Ubuntu, Fedora.. etc. and 90% of the time I fail. Maybe it's just because I'm too stupid to use Unix... but anyway, here are the steps that I followed to finally succeed.

1. Install JRE.
2. Go to the SQL Developer downloads page.
3. Download the "Oracle SQL Developer for other platforms (This zip does not include a JDK)".
4. Unpackthe zip file to some directory.
5. Run sqldeveloper.sh

Yeah.. it worked like a charm for me. No errors.

If you encounter some problems... it might be a problem with your JRE installation.
