PL/Java has configuration variables for most important file locations. As long as you just extract with java -jar the self-extractor takes care of it for you. Everything will still work, and there are easy fixes if you open them in an editor and they look funny.

One last small thing the extractor does, that won’t automatically happen if you extract with other tools, is make sure the text files have the right line-ending style for your system. It is useful to consider pljava.vmoptions. You will most probably have to set pljava.libjvm_location. For that, you will have to become patient, and read the rest of this page. If you change locations, you will probably have to adjust some of PL/Java’s configuration variables to match, before installation will succeed. You can therefore install PL/Java in many situations where you might not have write access to the standard locations, or might have other reasons to prefer giving the files another location. Would cause all the files that would normally go in the configured share directory to be placed in /local/foo instead. Java -Dpgconfig.sharedir=/local/foo -jar pljava-packaging/. It does not contain any complicated, black-box installer, and if you prefer, it is just as easy to extract normally with the jar command or any zip tool, in which case you will see that it contains files at symbolic paths such as The jar file produced in pljava-packaging/target at the end of the build contains all the files needed to install PL/Java, and it is self-extracting when simply run with java -jar. You may get a message that some configuration variable must be set. bundle at the end of the file name in the LOAD command.

(It works in later versions too, if you prefer it to CREATE EXTENSION.) Using a Mac? Be sure to add. Not running PostgreSQL 9.1 or higher? Use LOAD 'libpljava-so-1.6.4' instead of the CREATE EXTENSION command.

Upgrading an older PL/Java installation? Use CREATE EXTENSION pljava FROM unpackaged after reading Upgrade installations below. Where pgX represents the PostgreSQL version, and … wait, you’re impatient, just look in the directory, you’ll see the jar file there.
