I am trying to run Stardog on Buster, which does not have openjdk-8-jre, only 11. Stardog fails to run with that, failing with:
exception in thread "main" java.lang.ExceptionInInitializerError Caused by: java.lang.NullPointerException at org.apache.commons.lang3.SystemUtils.isJavaVersionAtLeast(SystemUtils.java:1413) at com.complexible.common.memory.PlatformDependent0.(PlatformDependent0.java:796)
I found this post:
which looks to be the same issue. No solution is offered in that post, other than to use JDK8. Unfortunately that is not possible with Buster.
You can still install a Java8 jre although it isn’t as easy as apt install. The next most convenient way would probably to use sdkman https://sdkman.io/
