Javafx button does nothing

I'm creating a simple login GUI form using eclipse, JavaFX and scene builder. I've coded my program so that every time I click the login button, it would switch to another window but it doesn't work. i'm a beginner in java but we've been tasked to create a system in my class so I've only relied on youtube tutorials, any help would be appreciated!
this is my main code
package application;
import javafx.application.Application;
import javafx.fxml.FXMLLoader;
import javafx.stage.Stage;
import javafx.scene.Parent;
import javafx.scene.Scene;
import javafx.scene.layout.BorderPane;
public class Main extends Application {
#Override
public void start(Stage primaryStage) {
try {
Parent root = FXMLLoader.load(getClass().getResource("Main.fxml"));
Scene scene = new Scene(root);
scene.getStylesheets().add(getClass().getResource("application.css").toExternalForm());
primaryStage.setScene(scene);
primaryStage.show();
} catch(Exception e) {
e.printStackTrace();
}
}
public static void main(String[] args) {
launch(args);
}
}
my login form
package application;
import javafx.event.ActionEvent;
import javafx.fxml.FXML;
import javafx.fxml.FXMLLoader;
import javafx.scene.Parent;
import javafx.scene.Scene;
import javafx.scene.control.Button;
import javafx.scene.control.Label;
import javafx.scene.control.PasswordField;
import javafx.scene.control.TextField;
import javafx.stage.Stage;
public class Login {
#FXML
private Button button;
#FXML
private PasswordField password;
#FXML
private TextField username;
#FXML
private Label wrongLogin;
#FXML
public void Login(ActionEvent event) {
Stage primaryStage = new Stage();
if (username.getText().equals("admin") && password.getText().equals("admin")) {
try {
Parent root = FXMLLoader.load(getClass().getResource("BookRooms.fxml"));
Scene scene = new Scene(root);
scene.getStylesheets().add(getClass().getResource("application.css").toExternalForm());
primaryStage.setScene(scene);
primaryStage.show();
} catch(Exception e) {
e.printStackTrace();
}
}
}
}
my fxml file
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<?import javafx.scene.control.Button?>
<?import javafx.scene.control.Label?>

<AnchorPane prefHeight="345.0" prefWidth="545.0" style="-fx-background-color: #fff2cc;" xmlns="http://javafx.com/javafx/18" xmlns:fx="http://javafx.com/fxml/1" fx:controller="application.Login">
<children>
<AnchorPane layoutX="132.0" layoutY="62.0" prefHeight="221.0" prefWidth="279.0" style="-fx-background-color: #545454; -fx-border-radius: 10;">
<children>
<Label layoutX="34.0" layoutY="60.0" prefHeight="25.0" prefWidth="56.0" text="Username:" textFill="WHITE" />
<Label layoutX="34.0" layoutY="98.0" prefHeight="25.0" prefWidth="56.0" text="Password:" textFill="WHITE" />
<TextField layoutX="106.0" layoutY="60.0" promptText="Enter Username ID:" />
<TextField layoutX="106.0" layoutY="98.0" promptText="Enter Password" />
<Button alignment="CENTER" layoutX="106.0" layoutY="137.0" mnemonicParsing="false" prefHeight="25.0" prefWidth="73.0" style="-fx-background-color: #fff2cc;" text="LOGIN" />
</children></AnchorPane>
<Label layoutX="225.0" layoutY="36.0" text="HOTEL DEL LUNA" />
</children>
</AnchorPane>

Your button in fxml can't call Login() in its controller class because there is no onAction attribute in fxml button tag .
So ,in <Button alignment="CENTER" layoutX="106.0" layoutY="137.0" mnemonicParsing="false" prefHeight="25.0" prefWidth="73.0" style="-fx-background-color: #fff2cc;" text="LOGIN" /> add onAction="#Login" inside Button Tag:
<Button alignment="CENTER" layoutX="106.0" layoutY="137.0" mnemonicParsing="false" onAction="#Login" prefHeight="25.0" prefWidth="73.0" style="-fx-background-color: #fff2cc;" text="LOGIN" />
And , naming a method in a class with exact the same name of that class is concidered a bad practice. Only constructors must match its name with class identifier

Two problems exist:
1)The File path
2)The Controller was not set properly
Recommendation:
If you are using SceneBuilder, when you want to see what your controller might look like, you can go to View -> Show Sample Controller Skeleton.
Solution
Main class:
package application;
import javafx.application.Application;
import javafx.fxml.FXMLLoader;
import javafx.stage.Stage;
import javafx.scene.Parent;
import javafx.scene.Scene;
public class Main extends Application {
#Override
public void start(Stage primaryStage) {
try {
System.out.println(getClass().getResource("anwendung.fxml").getPath());
//other solution
//FXMLLoader loader = new FXMLLoader(getClass().getResource("anwendung.fxml"));
//Parent root = loader.load();
//Keep in mind that you are calling a static method
Parent root = FXMLLoader.load(getClass().getResource("anwendung.fxml"));
primaryStage.setTitle("Benutzerverwaltung");
root.getStylesheets().add(getClass().getResource("application.css").toExternalForm());
primaryStage.setScene(new Scene(root));
primaryStage.show();
} catch (Exception e) {
e.printStackTrace();
}
}
public static void main(String[] args) {
launch(args);
}
}
Controller:
package application;
import javafx.event.ActionEvent;
import javafx.fxml.FXML;
import javafx.scene.control.Button;
import javafx.scene.input.MouseEvent;
public class AnwendungsController {
#FXML

The controller 'MainController' has no event slot 'PassPhrase' [duplicate]

This question already has answers here:
JavaFx, Problems with #FXML
(2 answers)
Closed 5 years ago.
So im trying to create Action event, to change the text on my status label button, but i keep getting the error listed in the title "The controller 'MainController' has no event slot 'PassPhrase", Im new to this and not quite sure exactly what to do.
Also I want the text entered into my passPhrase field to be saved under a variable called pass, which i think i did correctly if anyone could double check? Thanks.
This is my mainController
package application;

String pass = txtPassPhrase.getText();
public void PassPhrase (ActionEvent event) {
if (txtPassPhrase.getText().isEmpty()) {
lblStatus.setText("You must Enter in Characters");
} else {
lblStatus.setText("Your PassPhrase has been accepted.");
}
}
}
Here is my passPhrase FXML

Try changing your imports to `JavaFX' imports.
import javafx.scene.control.Label;
import javafx.scene.control.TextField;
import javafx.event.ActionEvent;

JavaFX FXML not responding to text input or Click (Events)

I have simple JavaFx project, with main class as eclipse JavaFx project default.
I have defined a controller , it looks like the skeleton generated by SceneBuilder, so everything is pretty much default.
When I run my application, In the UI I can't input data to the two textfields, or see the console output from my button event handlers.

When I run my application, In the UI I can't input data to the two textfields, or see the console output from my button event handlers.
Any help would be appreciated.

You have made the root pane transparent to the mouse with mouseTransparent="true". This means that any mouse clicks on the root pane, or any of its descendent nodes (i.e. the whole UI) will be ignored. Consequently you cannot click the buttons or put focus on the text fields using the mouse. (Notice though you can navigate the UI using the tab key, and use the space key to generate a button click when it has the focus.)
Remove mouseTransparent="true" from the pane and from the "Sign In" button and it will work fine.

How to send Message from FXML controller class to Main Application class

Hello stackoverflowers,
I have a question "I have an fxml file "CrawlerView.fxml" and its controller "CrawlerController.java" and a main Application class I want to send Message(database insert) from controller class to main Application class(because i cant do business logic in GUI/fxml controller class) .
