Can't get jMAVSim to work

[nicollorens12]

Hi guys,
I've been literally trying the whole weekend to get jMAVSim to work but it's been imposible (probably because of my very basic knowledge). When I try to execute the comand:
make px4_sitl jmavsim
I get px4 to start but then (if i'm not mistaken) it tries to open jMAVSim but this error occurs:
Starting GUI...

Does anyone know how to fix this? I've tried so hard but I can't seem to get it working. Thanks in advanced

It probably isn't you. What setup instructions did you follow and to what platform? Are you running in a VM?

Hi, I've used this instructions. https://github.com/PX4/jMAVSim/blob/master/README.md But I couldn't get the comand ant create_copy_res working so I tried directly with the comand make px4_sitl jmavsim using the px4 developer guide. I'm using ubuntu, but not in a VM. El dom., 2 dic. 2018 22:39, Hamish Willee <[email protected]> escribió:

The setup instructions here worked for me last time I tried on Ubuntu 16.04: http://dev.px4.io/en/setup/dev_env_linux.html (there are helper scripts there that install everything needed).

The problem is probably due to an incompatible Java installation.

Which is not to say that there isn't a problem - those README instructions should also be updated.

So what java should I be installing? I'm using java 8 because I saw in a discussion it worked well with the jMAVSim building process. El lun., 3 dic. 2018 7:17, Hamish Willee <[email protected]> escribió:

OpenJDK8 according to to the docs: http://dev.px4.io/en/setup/dev_env_linux_ubuntu.html#jmavsim

Should I uninstall first the java version that i'm using now? El lun., 3 dic. 2018 7:28, Hamish Willee <[email protected]> escribió:

Probably. I just know what works as a turnkey installation on a clean ubuntu 16.04 machine.

I saw different issues regarding java or wrong java versions on px4 builds Jmavsim.
I had different problems on Arch system but because system was used for trial and error I made fresh ubuntu 18 install.
I am unable to make it work, I did not save all of the error messages regarding Java because I just wanted px4 to work.

I noticed strange thing: I installed
nico@nico-MacBookPro:~$ sudo apt-get install ant openjdk-8-jdk openjdk-8-jre -y
went back i Terminal to check , because for Jmavsim prerequists those were needed....

After I sourced the ubuntu_sim.sh script, the Java version was

nico@nico-MacBookPro:~/src/Firmware$ java -version
openjdk version "11.0.4" 2019-07-16
OpenJDK Runtime Environment (build 11.0.4+11-post-Ubuntu-1ubuntu218.04.3)
OpenJDK 64-Bit Server VM (build 11.0.4+11-post-Ubuntu-1ubuntu218.04.3, mixed mode, sharing)

Is it possible problems arise in reinstallating java through script file?

error now on my machine is :
