I had the same error and had a look here: https://docs.aws.amazon.com/corretto/latest/corretto-17-ug/generic-linux-install.html

You need to run the following before installing:

 sudo rpm --import https://yum.corretto.aws/corretto.key 
 sudo curl -L -o /etc/yum.repos.d/corretto.repo https://yum.corretto.aws/corretto.repo

Install with package managers:

deb-based distros (such as Debian or Ubuntu)

# Download deb package from https://www.oracle.com/java/technologies/downloads/
# And then
sudo dpkg -i jdk-17_linux-x64_bin.deb

rpm-based distros (such as RHEL or CentOS)

# Download rpm package from https://www.oracle.com/java/technologies/downloads/
# And then
sudo rpm -i jdk-17_linux-x64_bin.rpm 

Any distro without or with differrent package manager

Download x64 Compressed tar.gz Archive from https://www.oracle.com/java/technologies/downloads/

Create jvm directory

sudo mkdir -p /usr/lib/jvm

Change to the directory.

cd /usr/lib/jvm

Extract jdk-17_linux-x64_bin.tar.gz to that directory.

~/Downloads/ - is a directory where archive is saved. If your downloaded file is in any other location, change the command according to your path.

sudo tar -xvzf ~/Downloads/jdk-17_linux-x64_bin.tar.gz

Enter the following command to open the environment variables file.

sudo ${EDITOR} /etc/environment

Edit your ${PATH}

# Add this to the $PATH variable
/usr/lib/jvm/jdk-17/bin

Add the following environment variables at the end of the file.

JAVA_HOME="/usr/lib/jvm/jdk-17"

Inform the system about the Java's location.

sudo update-alternatives --install "/usr/bin/java" "java" "/usr/lib/jvm/jdk-17/bin/java" 0
sudo update-alternatives --install "/usr/bin/javac" "javac" "/usr/lib/jvm/jdk-17/bin/javac" 0
sudo update-alternatives --set java /usr/lib/jvm/jdk-17/bin/java
sudo update-alternatives --set javac /usr/lib/jvm/jdk-17/bin/javac

To check version:

java -version

I am guessing you are using amazon linux ami

sudo yum install java 

then press tab twice it will show you list of available options like below

Then complete the installation with chosen version example

sudo yum install java-11-amazon-corretto-headless.x86_64

To remove java 1.7 and install java 1.8:

sudo yum install java-1.8.0
sudo yum remove java-1.7.0-openjdk
