When trying to launch on Windows 10 I get the following error

java -jar BigdataFileViewer-1.2.1-SNAPSHOT-jar-with-dependencies.jar

My java version is:

java --version
openjdk 11.0.11 2021-04-20
OpenJDK Runtime Environment Microsoft-22268 (build 11.0.11+9)
OpenJDK 64-Bit Server VM Microsoft-22268 (build 11.0.11+9, mixed mode)

According to some Google-fu Javafx is not bundled with recent versions.

Workaround

  1. Download JavaFX to the same directory and extract it
  2. Run the jar with the added modules java --module-path "openjfx-11.0.2_windows-x64_bin-sdk/javafx-sdk-11.0.2/lib" --add-modules javafx.controls,javafx.fxml -jar BigdataFileViewer-1.2.1-SNAPSHOT-jar-with-dependencies.jar

Thanks for this reporting and glad you found the workaround.
