I've chosen the version Linux x64, downloaded it from this link
http://javadl.sun.com/webapps/download/A...eId=101400

the instructions I have been using are these

the screenshot reflects the command "java -version"

I do not know the reason why the two do not match ...

I thank you so much for your help ...

If you use this approach for installation, you need to have your PATH set up so that the correct java executable is found before the default system version of Java. The instructions that you used don't include this vital step.

A simple way to do this on most Linux systems is to run the command:

sudo ln -s /usr/java/jre1.8.0_31/bin/java /usr/local/bin

This assumes that you installed Oracle Java in the /usr/java directory.
