openjdk version "1.8.0_45-internal"
OpenJDK Runtime Environment (build 1.8.0_45-internal-b14)
OpenJDK 64-Bit Server VM (build 25.45-b02, mixed mode)

Is my output but I fail the challenge..... Must be linux

It seems the challenge is expecting the Oracle Java SDK instead of the OpenJDK version:

java version "1.8.0_66"
Java(TM) SE Runtime Environment (build 1.8.0_66-b17)
Java HotSpot(TM) 64-Bit Server VM (build 25.66-b17, mixed mode)

Taggin Craig Dennis for feedback on whether the challenge grader needs to be more "open" minded!
