I am not able to start STM32CubeProgrammer even installed Oracle JDK 13.0.1 and openjfx:
System: Ubuntu 18.04 VirtualBox on MacOS 10.15:
~$ STM32CubeProgrammer
Error: Could not find or load main class com.st.app.Main
Caused by: java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: javafx/application/Application
~$ java --version

Hi Jason,
Here is the procedure to get CubeProgrammer working with ubuntu18.04
1- Install OpenJDK 8 :
=> sudo apt install openjdk-8-jre-headless
2- Set OpenJDK 8 as your default Java Runtime Engine :
=> sudo update-alternatives --config java
3- Install OpenJFX
=> sudo apt purge openjfx
=> sudo apt install openjfx=8u161-b12-1ubuntu2 libopenjfx-jni=8u161-b12-1ubuntu2 libopenjfx-java=8u161-b12-1ubuntu2
=> sudo apt-mark hold openjfx libopenjfx-jni libopenjfx-java
and finally don't forget to create stlink and DFU usb rules (described in user manual) to get STM32CubeProgrammer working without "sudo".
BR,
Aymen.

The rules files are in /etc/udev/rules.d but still see the STLINK V3 got lost somehow:

I confirm this is the only valid procedure to run STM32CubeProgrammer on Ubuntu 18.04
Here is the procedure to get CubeProgrammer working with ubuntu18.04
1- Install OpenJDK 8 :
=> sudo apt install openjdk-8-jre-headless
2- Set OpenJDK 8 as your default Java Runtime Engine :

Hi,
I follow exactly what you wrote but about line 17, I get:
version 8u161-b12-1ubuntu2 for openjfx was not find
Any idea ???

Ubuntu 18.04 is now pretty old and a new LTS release is available.
Any chance of making it work with OpenJDK 11?
These openjfx versions are not available on 19.10 and 20.04...

Confirms it works. I don't know much about ubuntu but typed it and Voilà! Thanks!

Agreed, I can't get this to work with Ubuntu 20.04
I can run the CLI application and connect to the STLINKv3 and see the microcontroller but can't install jfx of hte specified versions

I was able to get it to work on Ubuntu 20.04.1 LTS using the Liberica JDK. But I havent thoroughly tested it.
I followed the instructions here to install it: https://stackoverflow.com/a/62746011/848627
You may need to uninstall other openjfx stuff you have installed previously, not sure.
edit: It did managed to do a ST-Link firmware upgrade, and a flash in USB mode (not st-link mode), so presumably it all works as expected.
