Unable to run simple JavaFX on Linux

Veerendra S-Oracle

Hi,

    I am trying to run a simple JavaFX program on my Linux machine and it fails with a library issue. I packed the jar as a normal jar with manifest file.

    The command I use is /ade_autofs/gd29_3rdparty/nfsdo_generic/JDK7/MAIN/LINUX.X64/160404.1.7.0.101.0B014/jdk7/bin/java -cp .:/ade_autofs/gd29_3rdparty/nfsdo_generic/JDK7/MAIN/LINUX.X64/160404.1.7.0.101.0B014/jdk7/jre/lib/jfxrt.jar application.Main2

    Here is the exception trace:

With regards,

Java 7 is end of life for public updates:

  https://java.com/en/download/faq/java_7.xml

I suggest you try again with a more modern Java version:

Java SE Development Kit 8 - Downloads

Also note, for executing Java 8 programs, it is not necessary to explicitly add jfxrt.jar to the Java runtime classpath.

You should verify that your Linux version is a supported configuration (unsupported Linux versions may work, or they may not):

Oracle JDK 8 and JRE 8 Certified System Configurations

Note the text on the certified configurations page:

• For Linux platforms, gtk2 2.18+ is required for supporting JavaFX.

    Thanks Smith for the quick reply.

     I now ran with JDK1.8 and I get different error now. Could this be becoz my Linux version (Linux 2.6.39-400.215.10.el5uek #1 SMP Tue Sep 9 22:51:46 PDT 2014 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux)

There is a trouble-shooting procedure for that stack trace, which is defined on StackOverflow:

http://stackoverflow.com/questions/21185156/javafx-on-linux-is-showing-a-graphics-device-initialization-failed-for-es2-s

Try following it.

> Could this be becoz my Linux version ...

I don't know.  You are only supplying the kernel version (as far as I can tell - I'm not a Linux expert). 

You are not supplying enough information for somebody to assist in determining that info.

For instance, you don't report the distribution version (e.g. Ubuntu 15.10 or Redhat enterprise Linux 7.2).

You also don't report the version of gtk that you have installed.
