Please specify whether your issue is about:

  • a possible bug
  • a question about package functionality
  • [ x ] a suggested code or documentation change, improvement to the code, or feature request

On Windows 10, I installed Chocolatey and tried choco install jdk7 -y and it returned:

jdk7 not installed. The package was not found with the source(s) listed.
 Source(s): 'https://chocolatey.org/api/v2/'
 NOTE: When you specify explicit sources, it overrides default sources.
If the package version is a prerelease and you didn't specify `--pre`,
 the package may not be found.
Please see https://chocolatey.org/docs/troubleshooting for more
 assistance.

Chocolatey installed 0/1 packages. 1 packages failed.
 See the log for details (C:\ProgramData\chocolatey\logs\chocolatey.log).

I ended up installing AdoptOpenJDK11, which works. I don't know how the documentation should be updated but wanted to let you know that the current instructions are failing.

Let me know if you need any more information.

I ran into the same problem, and looked through the Chocolately documentation. I ended up installing JDK 8 instead of JDK 7, using choco install jdk8 -y. It worked, and the package runs properly.
