I am trying to create a jar file for a Groovy program I have written (BINSIC - an interpreter cum DSL that runs BASIC code: https://github.com/mcmenaminadrian/BINSIC).
I have a fundamental problem in that the code runs fine (if very slowly) on the development machine but fails on deployment (see below) - even on a box where I have installed a full Groovy installation. It looks like I'm failing to import something into the jar which is then called, though I don't know why that would fail when I have a full Groovy install. I have had the same problem with several different versions of Java (also using sdkman) activated.
What do I have to do to get the code to work on deployment? Does anyone know?
Setting groovy 3.0.2 as default.

I don't know if there is any other output I have to send since I am still pretty new to Linux.
If anyone else got same error. Just remove your JRE/JDK and install it again.
Note- It might remove some other apps like libreoffice and stuff, so save files and make backups.
I went to the file and the info below is what it displayed. I was attempting to add web tools for github repo functionality and then it crashed and would love to not uninstall and risk losing my code that I am working on. Is there a way to fix this without causing any harm on the projects in eclipse?
this is the log file:

Im using eclipse 2021-3 ( detailed version below), and after updating my form in GUIBuilder I noticed the initGuiBuilderComponents java method in the form class was empty but the .gui file had the components declared.
The stack trace I got after saving the changes in the GUIBuilder is:

Any clue if this is a framework issue with the new eclipse?
This is related to the JDK. Originally the code was written for JDK 8 but jaxb was removed later and for JDK 11 we try to dynamically download it which doesn't always work well.
I think the best workaround would be a migration to Maven which should solve the issue.
Alternatively try to make sure you're running with JDK 8 which should workaround this issue.
I had this working before, and I am 99% positive I have been following the same procedure I have used in the past of adding the lib to the project file structure, adding VM options in the Edit Configurations menu. For some reason I still cannot get JavaFX to work with my setup the way it did in the past. My old projects still run and were written with the same libraries and Java version. I have been banging my head on the wall with this issue all morning, I feel as though the solution may be sitting right in front of me. I have no clue what else to try from here, Reddit has been useless and everything I've searched has been the same.
I have tried running with both, when I took the VM options out the last time I finally got my errors in the editor to go away, but get the errors I had in the original post, this is why I didn't include them in the ZIP but included them in the post.

I have tried with these VM options and without:

Your project is using Java 14, even though you initially specified Java 11 in the question.
Per the documentation when using Java 14 the following VM Options are also needed:
--add-exports javafx.graphics/com.sun.javafx.sg.prism=ALL-UNNAMED
in addition to these options:
--module-path /home/(myUser)/Downloads/javafx-sdk-15.0.1/lib --add-modules=javafx.controls,javafx.fxml
Double check all the options are specified in the VM Options field of the Run Configuration, not in the Program Arguments.
So I am trying to use the library called PreferencesFX, which uses FontAwesomeFX which throws the following error.

Exception running application my.package.Main
I found the cause of the problem to sit at line 62 of the Glyphs Factory class but I have no idea how to fix it.
The method GlyphsFactory.class.getResource(pathToIconFont) returns null, instead of returning the font file. I can see that the method is loading the font file via path /de/jensd/fx/glyphs/fontawesome/fontawesome-webfont.ttf (which seem to be correct). I can see that the font is loaded from package de.jensd.fx.glyphs.fontawesome to package de.jensd.fx.glyphs but both packages are in different jars.
Any ideas why getResource() returns null? I reported it to the developer but it seems the FontAwesomeFX library is abandoned.
I am running this with newest IntelliJ on a Mac OS X Big Sur.
I was successful in patching the library (after reading this) by changing the following line.
Font.loadFont(GlyphsFactory.class.getResource(pathToIconFont).openStream(), 10.0D);
To this.
Font.loadFont(GlyphsFactory.class.getResourceAsStream(pathToIconFont), 10.0D);
