I am working with scene builder that I save as fxml file. When I open it on netbeans it generates the following error.

Executing C:\Users\Niw\Documents\NetBeansProjects\school_system\dist\run803183839\school_system.jar using platform C:\Program Files(x86)\Java\jdk1.8.0_131\jre/bin/java

The problem is that your application was compiled using JDK 9, but you are trying to run it using JRE 8:

  • The relevant part of your stack trace which shows this is this message:

    Caused by: java.lang.UnsupportedClassVersionError:

    com/jfoenix/controls/JFXButton has been compiled by a more recent version of the Java Runtime (class file version 53.0), this version of the Java Runtime only recognizes class file versions up to 52.0

  • The first line of your stack trace confirms that your are using JRE 1.8 which equates to class file version 52.0:

    ...using platform C:\Program Files(x86)\Java\jdk1.8.0_131\jre/bin/java

  • However, your project has been compiled using JDK 9, which equates to class file version 53.0 as detailed in the error message for the UnsupportedClassVersionError shown above.

There are two possible ways to resolve your problem in NetBeans:

  1. Use a more recent version of JRE to run your application, with a version >= JRE 9. To do that:
    • Select your project in the Projects pane, right click to open the context menu and select Properties.
    • Select Libraries from the list of Categories, then select a JDK from the Java Platform drop list which is >= JDK 9.
  2. Use only JDK 8 (if, and only if, that is possible):
    • Select Sources from the list of Categories, then select a JDK 8 from the Source/Binary Format drop list.
    • Rebuild your application.

After taking one of those two approaches you should be able to run your application in NetBeans.
