Any reason why something like this doesn't work?

In any case not only does the Ubuntu community have a forum and support chat on IRC but there are many resources out there where you can quickly find the answer to this. I don't mind helping but the DP forum isn't your best place to seek out help.
Oh, and choose the right package. Maybe you just want the JRE (Java Runtime Environment) instead of the entire SDK (Software Development Kit).
