As the install docs say, you needed to use Oracle Java. This stackoverflow article might help you move over.

UPDATE: We support OpenJDK 8 181+, however our Startup Scripts have a check that looks for 'java version' as opposed to 'openjdk version', so if you switch to Open JDK,  update the line in your startup script from this:


JAVA_VER=$(java -version 2>&1 | sed 's/java version "\(.*\)\.\(.*\)\..*"/\1\2/; 1q')

 

to this:

JAVA_VER=$(java -version 2>&1 | sed 's/openjdk version "\(.*\)\.\(.*\)\..*"/\1\2/; 1q')
