Unable to locate an executable at "/usr/bin/java/bin/java" (-1)

export JAVA_HOME=/Library/Java/JavaVirtualMachines/jdk1.8.0_45.jdk/Contents/Home

Because:

 $ find /Library/Java/JavaVirtualMachines/jdk1.8.0_45.jdk/Contents/Home -name java*
/Library/Java/JavaVirtualMachines/jdk1.8.0_45.jdk/Contents/Home/bin/java
/Library/Java/JavaVirtualMachines/jdk1.8.0_45.jdk/Contents/Home/bin/javac
/Library/Java/JavaVirtualMachines/jdk1.8.0_45.jdk/Contents/Home/bin/javadoc
/Library/Java/JavaVirtualMachines/jdk1.8.0_45.jdk/Contents/Home/bin/javafxpackager
/Library/Java/JavaVirtualMachines/jdk1.8.0_45.jdk/Contents/Home/bin/javah
/Library/Java/JavaVirtualMachines/jdk1.8.0_45.jdk/Contents/Home/bin/javap
/Library/Java/JavaVirtualMachines/jdk1.8.0_45.jdk/Contents/Home/bin/javapackager
/Library/Java/JavaVirtualMachines/jdk1.8.0_45.jdk/Contents/Home/javafx-src.zip
/Library/Java/JavaVirtualMachines/jdk1.8.0_45.jdk/Contents/Home/jre/bin/java

Most certainly, export JAVA_HOME=/usr/bin/java is the culprit. This env var should point to the JDK or JRE installation directory. Googling shows that the best option for MacOS X seems to be export JAVA_HOME=/Library/Java/Home.
