I had this same issue installing openjdk-9-jre on Ubuntu Gnome 17.04

installing the "older" Version via

sudo apt-get install openjdk-8-jre

worked for me right away.

Check which version of Java you are running. I received this same error on another java application when I started using Java 9 EA. I downloaded jmeter just out of curiosity and get the same error.

  1. Download latest Oracle JRE or JDK and unpack it somewhere, i.e. to /opt/java folder
  2. Download latest JMeter and unpack it to /opt/jmeter folder

  3. Amend PATH environment variable to start with the "bin" folder of Oracle JDK installation like:

    PATH=/opt/java/bin:$PATH && export PATH

  4. In the same terminal window navigate to JMeter folder

    pushd /opt/jmeter

  5. Execute JMeter

    ./jmeter
