Even though, I have no issues with Java 11 (11.0.1).

Hopefully a non-Oracle one, you know, due to licensing issues . I use Amazon's Corretto, even though it's from the new Borg (note: very personal opinion).

BTW, I'm using ABMaterial 4.51. Seems to work fine with both the OpenJDK 11.0.1 provided by @Erel and Corretto's 212 update of JDK 1.8.0

Just compiled the feedback app (from 4.51), since I'm pretty sure it uses the upload handler. No issues. I guess I'm no help here.
BTW, looks like your using the template provided by ABM. I just compiled it (the one provided by 4.51) and still no error message (or warning(s)). If you just want to zip up your modifications you made (if any), I'll gladly test it on my end.

I have tested with the demo, unchanged, same error… I'm using the template (starting a new) and only changed the appname value

I update mine in a little bit and see what happens. Looks like my 1.8 is a tad behind

I have tried all demos, and even removed the uploadhandler module, and the error just shifted from it to ABMaterial lib

Used Amazon Corretto JDK 1.8.0_252 (64 bit - on Windows 10 Pro 64 bit) and compiled the ABMaterial template without issues. That error above would seem to suggest that the ABMaterial.jar file (or one of the other supporting files) cannot be found or may be damaged? Try re-downloading ABMaterial 4.51 and extrating the library files and placing them in the right location (overwriting any existing ones).

The problem is, feedback is down and I cannot re-download it. I still have the ZIP file, and already un-zipped it, but same behaviour. Can you point me to this Amazon Correto and install?

Downloads for Amazon Corretto 8 - Amazon Corretto 8

List of downloads for Amazon Corretto 8.

docs.aws.amazon.com

You have to scroll in the list (only Linux version show up on top). Just saying it since I was confused at first (thought download page only had Linux version). Could be that I'm just getting old...

Is this a new computer? A new setup? Try to put the extra libraries directory somewhere in a path without a - in the name.

Or spaces! have no spaces in your path name (I think that one may be more important!)
