Ofbiz on Ubuntu 19.10
I have been trying to install Ofbiz on Ubuntu Stdio 19.10; but, it fails to install for unmet dependencies. Ubuntu Studio uses the low-latency XFCE DE, which must lack many of the more refined features of DEs like Mate, Cinammon & Gnome.
For OTB functionality, which linux distros and DEs do you recommend? Should I be trying this with a Red Hat distro?

Yup,
You were correct. I had 11 & 8 installed side by side. Once I pulled 11, the build completed successfully and my older Java apps started working again. Since 11 is the default jre, I hope I didn't break anything.

Hi,
I use XFCE and have no problem with OFBiz or development environments like
IntelliJ IDEA and Eclipse. I doubt the problem is your window manager. I
agree with Pierre, most likely you have Java 11. For the moment OFBiz
requires Java 8.

Hi,
I'm glad that fixed it.
You don't need to remove Java 11 altogether, just use
update-java-alternatives (
http://manpages.ubuntu.com/manpages/trusty/man8/update-java-alternatives.8.html)
to specify which version you want to use.
Cheers

I have the latest build from the official site. I had Jre 11 & 8 side by side. Once I removed 11, the build completed successfully.

In order for the community to able to help you with this issue, please
provide some additional details like:
- which OFBiz revision/version (branch or release) did you use, and
where did you get it from;
- what is the JAVA version that was implemented with your Ubuntu version?
Typically, the first issue adopters have to resolve is the misalignment of
the implemented JAVA version and the OFBiz requirement therefore.
