JavaFX JAR file won't run

Question

I'm in a project and we try to run a jar file, but we get an error we can't solve. We get following error: error

I tried many things, but nothing helped. Is there anything I have to configurate at JavaFX set up, or in building the JAR in IntelliJ?

I use:

• javafx-sdk-13.0.1
• jdk-13.0.1
• jre1.8.0_231
• IntelliJ IDE

Answer 1

I had a very similar error message:

Graphics Device initialization failed for :  es2, sw

The fix was to include the .so files in the JAR.

To do that in IntelliJ, it's:

File > Project Structure > Artifacts > click the "+" symbol > File > and then select all the .so files in the JavaFX folder.
