How to run javafx applications in intellij idea IDE

I am trying to run JavaFX application but there is showing the following error

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

Until this step, I could not import the JavaFX, and I have done it from /usr/lib/jvm/java-8-openjdk-amd64

Can someone help to solve this error?

Thanks beforehand. By the way, I am using lubuntu operating system

As explained on official OpenJFX website

  • open your intellij idea IDE and create new Project
  • Go to File > Project Structure
  • Go to Project Settings > Libraries
  • Click on + button
  • Locate ..\openjfx-11.0.1_windows-x64_bin-sdk\javafx-sdk-11.0.1\lib folder from extracted zip of openJFX 11
  • Apply settings and click ok
  • Go to File > Settings
  • In Settings go to Appearance & Behavior > System Settings > Path Variables
  • Click on + and add new path variable name it PATH_TO_FX and in value field locate ..\openjfx-11.0.1_windows-x64_bin-sdk\javafx-sdk-11.0.1\lib folder
  • Apply settings and click ok
  • The go to Run > Edit Configurations
  • Select your Application from Application > {your application name}
  • Then click on Configuration tab and in VM options field write this: --module-path ${PATH_TO_FX} --add-modules=javafx.controls,javafx.fxml
  • Then Click on Edit templates button select Application in Templates and again in VM options field write this: --module-path ${PATH_TO_FX} --add-modules=javafx.controls,javafx.fxml

  • You have to do this whenever you create new project in intellij

There is no strictly defined javafx in openjdk8.

You need to install openjfx via commandline:

sudo apt-get install openjfx
