While attempting to boot a Continuum server for a small group of friends on Linux I get these errors...

Exception in thread "main" java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: joptsimple/OptionSpec

I have searched the forums and others for answers for a while now and though many people have reported it are generally never clear answers. Has anyone else encountered and fixed this?
 
Install and use java version 8 - if you still have issues, get full log and share that using paste.feed-the-beast.com and give the link here.
 
The problem is that even after double-checking that java 8 is installed, running ServerStart.sh doesn't produce a log. Is there possibly a problem with the forge server version or install?
 
do a:

java -version

from terminal and show the result in a screenshot
