Default Installation problems

Hi,

Tried to install the Linux version, but it fails with java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: java.awt.Container

Then tried the .zip version, JDownloader installs but when it's running the window is completely grey, cannot see any button or other control.

Any tip?

Looks like your java is incomplete.
I guess you've installed gcj? and not full JRE?
what does "java -version" show?
Please use Java 1.8
Java >=1.9 are experimental support. They work but can cause issues

Can you please show the complete stacktrace/log.

This is a java class and error means that it is missing
java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: java.awt.Container

What window manager do you use? Please know that OpenJDK has more issues with some window managers than the Oracle one. Also a XServer is required. Pure Wayland isn't yet supported by java

Hi Jiaz,


Thank you for your support!

I downloaded the JDownloader.jar and ran it with `java -jar JDownloader.jar`. Never programmed in Java, don't know if have to do it differently.

Presently, I'm using the dwm window manager with X11.

Here's the complete stacktrace/log: **External links are only visible to Support Staff****External links are only visible to Support Staff**

wiki.gentoo.org/wiki/Dwm#Fix_Java_application_misbehaving
with that modifications in place, it should work just fine then

The two settings were already set because of other Java programs:

$wmname
LG3D

$ echo $AWT_TOOLKIT
MToolkit

At line 244 of my log, there's a severe issue, some Code.jar missing, for examples. Can't the problem be related to other issue?

Log contains no error. That's a normal log when JDownloader doesn't find a working installation and updating itself to latest available version.
Can you create new log?
start JDownloader with
java -jar JDownloader.jar -norestart -console

Log contains start and stop of JDownloader

The problem is the grey window as in the attachment of the whole desktop.

I would say incompatibility between dwm and java.
I would try OracleJVM instead of OpenJDK because it has better compatibility for window managers/servers.
