Invalid or unsupported type: [rpm]

[ghost]

when I build JPackage in linux. it comes jpackage failed

How can I solve this error?

[Srijan-Sengupta]

On Linux, such errors are common when your linux-destro does not support rpm type of packaging.

[Srijan-Sengupta]

You can easily resolve this issue by installing alien. Just open a shell (Terminal) and run this command: sudo apt install alien After this once again run jpackage in your Intellij IDEA.

[Srijan-Sengupta]

Launch the application from the terminal by the command: /opt/hellofx/bin/hellofx

And see if any error comes.

[Srijan-Sengupta]

Then the following issues may be responsible:

1. The launcher file of linux (.desktop) is missing which is the desktop configuring file used to launch an application.
2. The .desktop file is not correctly configured
3. Or there may be some other path issue(s).

It would be better if you would provide the build.gradle file.

[Srijan-Sengupta]

I can give you the tutorial easily but luckily jpackage provides a desktop configuration file by default. You just have to mention this in your code : --linux-shortcut runtime{ .. jpackage{ .. if(curentOs.linux){ installerOptions += ['--linux-shortcut'] } .. } .. }

[Srijan-Sengupta]

But still if you want to configure yourself for more perfection, you may contact me and I will help you out.

Please see this

[Srijan-Sengupta]

Though it is some times not recommended, but I have found this very effective. In your build.gradle, set --resource-dir to $project.root/src/main/resources

[Srijan-Sengupta]

Please place the $project.root/src/main/resources in double quotation(")

[Srijan-Sengupta]

Replace "$project.root/src/main/resources" with "--resource-dir" and "build/jpackage/hellofx/lib" with "$project.root/src/main/resources"

[Srijan-Sengupta]

Replace "$project.rootDir/src/main/resources" with "--resource-dir"

[Srijan-Sengupta]

first one only

[Srijan-Sengupta]

Use this:

plugins { id 'application' id 'org.openjfx.javafxplugin' version '0.0.9' id 'org.beryx.runtime' version '1.11.3' }

repositories { mavenCentral() flatDir { dirs 'libs' } }

dependencies { implementation name: 'bridj-0.6.3-20130316.190111-13' implementation name: 'slf4j-api-1.7.2' implementation name: 'ps' }

javafx { modules = [ 'javafx.base', 'javafx.graphics', 'javafx.controls', 'javafx.fxml', 'javafx.media', 'javafx.web'] }

application { mainClassName = "a.Launcher" applicationName = 'hellofx' }

runtime { options = ['--strip-debug', '--compress', '2', '--no-header-files', '--no-man-pages'] launcher { noConsole = true } jpackage { def currentOs = org.gradle.internal.os.OperatingSystem.current() def imgType = currentOs.windows ? 'ico' : currentOs.macOsX ? 'icns' : 'png' imageOptions += ['--icon', "src/main/resources/hellofx.$imgType"] installerOptions += ["--resource-dir", "$project.rootDir/src/main/resources"] installerOptions += ['--vendor', 'parasuraam'] if(currentOs.windows) { installerOptions += ['--win-per-user-install', '--win-dir-chooser', '--win-menu', '--win-shortcut'] } } }

[Srijan-Sengupta]

What is the name of your project and the package?

[Srijan-Sengupta]

And what is the application name?

Try this method:

Use this build.gradle:

plugins { id 'application' id 'org.openjfx.javafxplugin' version '0.0.9' id 'org.beryx.runtime' version '1.11.3' }

repositories { mavenCentral() flatDir { dirs 'libs' } }

dependencies { implementation name: 'bridj-0.6.3-20130316.190111-13' implementation name: 'slf4j-api-1.7.2' implementation name: 'ps' }

javafx { modules = [ 'javafx.base', 'javafx.graphics', 'javafx.controls', 'javafx.fxml', 'javafx.media', 'javafx.web'] }

application { mainClassName = "a.Launcher" applicationName = 'hellofx' }

runtime { options = ['--strip-debug', '--compress', '2', '--no-header-files', '--no-man-pages'] launcher { noConsole = true } jpackage { def currentOs = org.gradle.internal.os.OperatingSystem.current() def imgType = currentOs.windows ? 'ico' : currentOs.macOsX ? 'icns' : 'png' imageOptions += ['--icon', "src/main/resources/hellofx.$imgType"] installerOptions += ["--resource-dir", "$project.rootDir/src/main/resources"] installerOptions += ['--vendor', 'parasuraam'] if(currentOs.windows) { installerOptions += ['--win-per-user-install', '--win-dir-chooser', '--win-menu', '--win-shortcut'] } if(curentOs.linux){ installerOptions += ['--linux-shortcut', '--verbose'] } } }

2.sync it in your IDE.

3. open a terminal and navigate to your project directory.
4. Run ./gradlew -i clean jpackage
5. Copy the output in the terminal and paste in a file.
6. Show the file so that I can find out the reason why it is not taking up your Icon.

[Srijan-Sengupta]

Yes @parasuraam , it will work for any linux os of the architecture, amd64.

[Srijan-Sengupta]

when I execute this ./gradlew -i clean jpackage command . it comes like this

For this problem, you will have to run chmod +x gradlew in that directory and hit enter and run the command again.

[Srijan-Sengupta]

I want to create a jpackage for all linux os and all architectures.

how can I do this ?

Creating one platform dependent package for all the architecture is not possible. You need different packages for different architectures.

[Srijan-Sengupta]

have you installed Java (JDK)? if not then install from here https://www.azul.com/downloads/zulu-community/?os=debian&architecture=x86-64-bit&package=jdk

[Srijan-Sengupta]

Please download the .deb file

[Srijan-Sengupta]

Please place another copy of the icon in the src/main/resources directory with the name, PCOID. png and PLEASE use this build.gradle :

plugins { id 'application' id 'org.openjfx.javafxplugin' version '0.0.9' id 'org.beryx.runtime' version '1.11.3' }

repositories { mavenCentral() flatDir { dirs 'libs' } }

dependencies { implementation name: 'bridj-0.6.3-20130316.190111-13' implementation name: 'slf4j-api-1.7.2' implementation name: 'ps' }

javafx { modules = ['javafx.controls', 'javafx.fxml'] }

application { mainClassName = "org.example.hellofx.Launcher" applicationName = 'PCOID' }

runtime { options = ['--strip-debug', '--compress', '2', '--no-header-files', '--no-man-pages'] launcher { noConsole = true } jpackage { def currentOs = org.gradle.internal.os.OperatingSystem.current() def imgType = currentOs.windows ? 'ico' : currentOs.macOsX ? 'icns' : 'png' imageOptions += ['--icon', "src/main/resources/PCOID.$imgType"] installerOptions += ['--resource-dir', "$project.rootDir/src/main/resources"] installerOptions += ['--vendor', 'PRADEEP'] if(currentOs.windows) { installerOptions += ['--win-per-user-install', '--win-dir-chooser', '--win-menu', '--win-shortcut'] } if(currentOs.linux){ installerOptions += ['--linux-shortcut', '--verbose'] } } }

[Srijan-Sengupta]

Then sync in the Intellij IDE and in Terminal do the same.

[Srijan-Sengupta]

According to this line:

Using custom package resource [menu icon] (loaded from PCOID.png).

From your verbose, I am sure that your custom icon is set. But still if your icon seems to be the same, then,

1. remove all the older packages which were installed earlier.
2. then restart your computer(virtual box), and make sure that PCOID application is not present.
3. Run jpackage.
4. Lastly reinstall that package. And let me know.

[siordache]

@parasuraam You may also need to refresh your icon cache.
