I am new to ubuntu software installation "by hand". I want to install launch4j. I have followed the guide from StackExchange and other websites online.
Whatever I try, with or without sudo, using chmod for execute rights, I get this issue:
❮ onyr ★ kenzae❯ ❮ Downloads❯❯ sudo tar xf launch4j-3.12-linux.tgz -C /opt
❮ onyr ★ kenzae❯ ❮ ~❯❯ cd /opt/launch4j/

I'm using java 13:
❮ onyr ★ kenzae❯ ❮ launch4j❯❯ java --version
java 13.0.2 2020-01-14
Java(TM) SE Runtime Environment (build 13.0.2+8)
Java HotSpot(TM) 64-Bit Server VM (build 13.0.2+8, mixed mode, sharing)
I'm running out of ideas. What should I do ? Thank and take care,
Onyr
EDIT
As proposed, I tried to use JDK 8 using the following commands
sudo apt-get install openjdk-8-jre
sudo update-java-alternatives --set java-1.8.0-openjdk-amd64
However, I still get the same error...
❮ onyr ★ kenzae❯ ❮ ~❯❯ java -version
