How to solve "Graphics Device initialization failed for : d3d, sw" when running a java Jar file with JavaFx


Good Afternoon everyone.

I'm having a problem when I try to run my Java Code as a Runnable Jar file. I'm using Eclipse and I created a normal Java Project. I included the JavaFX jars as a User Libary. The Program runs without a problem when I start it with the IDE. To create the Jar file I use the the build in Export of a Java Project in the Runnable Jar file. When I check "Extract required libaries into generated JAR" and run it, I get this Error Message:

Error: JavaFX runtime components are missing, and are required to run this application

When I check "Package required libaries into generated JAR" and run it, I get this Error Message:

Graphics Device initialization failed for :  d3d, sw

Does anyone know, why I cannot run the JAR but in the IDE it runs normally?

I installed JavaFX following the Documentation here https://openjfx.io/openjfx-docs/ .


Solution

  • I found a solution to my Problem. When I Export the Libaries into the Generated Jar I got the Error that the JavaFX Runtime components are missing. I now remembered that I got the same Error in Eclipse before although there was no Error in the Code and I used JavaFX elements. But to get it up and running I had to add VM Arguments. So I only had to write this in the command promt when I wanted to run the program.

    Assuming you already are in the directory of your build Jar file:

    java --module-path "C:\Path\to\javafx-sdk-13.0.2\lib" --add-modules javafx.controls,javafx.fxml -jar YourJar.jar
    

    It's working now for me. Hope it will help others too.

    Best Wishes
