[Siedlerchr]

Hi, seems like your Java version does not include all javafx libraries.Please try this version
https://bell-sw.com/pages/java-11.0.4/

[PierreMarchand20]

Ok, but I thought that I had the last versions of java from oracle:

❯ java -version
java version "12" 2019-03-19
Java(TM) SE Runtime Environment (build 12+33)
Java HotSpot(TM) 64-Bit Server VM (build 12+33, mixed mode, sharing)

and

❯ javac -version
javac 12

It is not enough ?

[Siedlerchr]

Currently JabRef requires Java 11 (it's an LTS version) and does not run yet with Java 12.

[PierreMarchand20]

Ok, and will it support Java 12 in its release version ?

[Siedlerchr]

No. This is very unlikely. JabRef depends on external libraries which also need to be compatible then.
You can just downgrade to java 11. It's supported until at least 2022.

[PierreMarchand20]

I installed java 11:

and I get the following error

[Siedlerchr]

The new version is no longer startable as jar. Please use the installer in the meantime or for Linux the tar.gz archive

[PierreMarchand20]

Ok, I tried on macOS. It worked at first but after restarting my computer, when I call jabref it is the old version that is used.
