The log shows that you’re using Java 11. VASSAL 3.2.17 isn’t compatible
with anything later than Java 8. (VASSAL 3.3.0 will work with Java 9
and later, but isn’t ready yet.)

Thank a lot for your answer !

I tried with some key word like “install java 8 on linux” on duckduckgo but unfortunately nothing work…
do you have a special step by step method (specially made for this kind of situation with vassal engine ?)

thank a lot :slight_smile:

On Mint, you’d need to do something like ‘sudo apt install openjdk-8-jdk’
to install Java 8.

After that, you might need to set it as your default Java:

sudo update-alternatives --config java

and then select the option which has an ‘8’ in it.
