Trying to get this running on a new Debian Linux. I'm new to Linux. Each time I click on the start it just opens a download window and asks what I want to open it with. Right now it defaults to the Iced Tea java pkg that came when I installed Linux. Dos it have to be Oracle Java 8? Trying to figure out installing that. I'm using the Ice Weasel distibution of Firefox.

update: tried updating open-jdk 7 through Synaptic Package Manager and now seems to be working
