Hi guys... Need little help...
I need to install GUI app on Raspberry Pi ver 4. I installed Bellsoft java 11 (which include javaFx modules). I want to use B4J packager11 for creating release app... Bridge working perfect, I can connect to raspberry - picture below:

But - when i run B4J (with connection on Rasperry PI) the system starts to creating jar, after I received a error... Picture:

I research all of web and can not find any solution regarding the error... Need I insall some JavaFX modules or?

Please, need help...

Tnx, Darko

Are you using the external tool to build the package from the json file?

I haven’t tried with raspberry pi. I just got my rpi today and haven’t found an SD card to install an OS.
I saw this is quite an old thread maybe you can try to install the version recommended by Erel.

Raspberry Pi with Java 11

Running UI apps on Raspberry Pi with Java 11 is relatively simple. 1. Download Liberica JDK. Download the lite version: https://github.com/bell-sw/Liberica/releases/download/11.0.1/bellsoft-jdk11.0.1-linux-arm32-vfp-hflt-lite.tar.gz 2. Copy it to the RPi and unpack it: tar -xvf...

Not sure this is related, I have problem running GUI app in new Linux with Wayland. I switch to X.org session and the issue is resolved.

I ran into same error when creating release.
I am running 32bit Raspberrypi OS on Raspberry Pi 4B and using 32bit Belsoft Liberica OpenJDK 11.0.14. If I am not mistaken, B4JPackager11 requires 64bit Java.

Bash: Copy 
pi@raspberrypi:/usr/java/jdk-11.0.14.1-full/bin $ java -jar tempjars/B4JPackager11.jar tempjars/packager.json
B4JPackager11 Version 1.21
Exe name: WebAPIClient.exe
InputJar: /usr/java/jdk-11.0.14.1-full/bin/tempjars/WebAPIClient.jar
Folder not found: /usr/java/jdk-11.0.14.1-full/bin/../javafx/javafx-jmods

I follow yours instructions and now I can run the project (jar). But still I have a problem with B4jPackager and as you already secribed - I'm sure that is problem with java 64 bit and B4jPackager...

When I run B4j over bridge, I receive still error:

In worst case I will create bash script to install all needet java jars to every raspberry pi machine and run created jar (without making the installation)... This will be most easyest way...

Ya, I also get the same error as yours.

Bash: Copy 
Error: Modules dio and jdk.dio export package jdk.dio.power to module jrt.fs

Something related to jdk.dio that I can't find any solution yet.

I think I found a solution.
Delete (or rename) the following files inside /usr/java/jdk-11.0.14.1-full/lib:
dio.jar
jrt-fs.jar

Then run B4JPackager11.jar

Voila! It compiles!

In case anyone has encountered the following error using Bellsoft Liberica Full JDK 11.0.14.1+1 ARM 32 bit for Linux:
B4X: Copy 
Folder not found: /usr/java/jdk-11.0.14.1-full/bin/../javafx/javafx-jmods

Modify B4JPackager11 source code as:
B4X: Copy 
Sub AppStart (Args() As String)
    ...
   
    Java14 = Ver.StartsWith("14")
    'JavafxJmods = ReplaceSlashes(File.Combine(java, "..\javafx\javafx-jmods"))
    'JavaFXLibs = ReplaceSlashes(File.Combine(java, "..\javafx\lib"))
    JavafxJmods = ReplaceSlashes(File.Combine(java, "..\jmods"))
    JavaFXLibs = ReplaceSlashes(File.Combine(java, "..\lib"))
   
    ...
End Sub

Not sure it is a correct way but at least I can compile the jar using B4JPackager11.

Answer from SO.
Try to remove jrt-fs.jar from the directory of jdk9. I did it in Project Structure in IntelliJ IDEA and it works fine for me

Worked for me too... though I'm also unable to load resources from classloader, likely due to missing the FileSystem module jrt.fs. To be fair, I haven't verified yet that the code in question works in any other java 9 environment (it is correct in 8 and lower)
