Complete guide of Java Installation in Linux
JAVA_HOME and JRE_HOME
Make sure your JAVA_HOME environment variable correctly points to your JDK 8 installation. If you also have JRE_HOME defined in your system, this will take precedence over JAVA_HOME and therefore you need to either point JRE_HOME to your JDK 8 installation, or remove the JRE_HOME definition.
How to set JAVA_HOME in Linux for all users

export PATH=$JAVA_HOME/bin:$PATH
and run:
source /etc/profile
Note - Don't forget to delete the double quotes and recreate them from your keyboard

Recommended JVM parameters
The larger your repository or number of concurrent users, the larger you need to make the -Xms and -Xmx values accordingly.
