Program does not open normally on Linux #1031

Open nus-pe-bot opened 2 years ago

nus-pe-bot commented 2 years ago

Description

The program fails to open normally on Linux Ubuntu 22.04. Usage of the java -jar TrackAScholar.jar will not work on this OS.

This is caused by a Waylands incompatibility issue with JavaFX 11.0, the fis to upgrade to 11.0.2.

Justification for Severity: Medium

In the worse case, the user may not be able to open the program at all. In the best case, the user may know of special commands to open the file to bypass the issue.

Steps to reproduce

  1. Use a Linux Machine running Ubuntu 22.04

  2. Open the terminal at the file location and type java -jar TrackAScholar.jar

  3. Observe that the file cannot be opened normally

Team's Response

Justification:

As mentioned by your description, our team has went to test our application on Ubuntu 22.04.
Similarly, we have only made a simple java jdk installation of jdk 11.0.17 to match the version shown in your picture.

In reproduction of the steps you have given, running the application with a terminal by typing java -jar TrackAScholar.jar has resulted in a successful launch.

Refer below for the video recording of the launch. It can be seen that the app was able to run on Ubuntu 22.04 with jdk installed of jdk 11.0.17 and the team demonstrates that the app is able to work normally with some sample commands.
