Answer 1

I too had OpenJDK on my Ubuntu machine:

$ java -version
java version "1.7.0_51"
OpenJDK Runtime Environment (IcedTea 2.4.4) (7u51-2.4.4-0ubuntu0.13.04.2)
OpenJDK 64-Bit Server VM (build 24.45-b08, mixed mode)

Replacing OpenJDK with the HotSpot VM works fine:

sudo apt-get autoremove openjdk-7-jre-headless
