Java error when accessing named connections on FME 2016 on an Ubuntu 18.04

I get the following error when trying to add a named connection in FME 2016.1.2.1 on Ubuntu 18.04

The Java library 'jvm' could not be located or loaded. Ensure Java has been installed through the FME installer to FME_HOME/jre and re-install FME if necessary.

I do not get the error on FME 2018, but I need to use FME 2016.

Does anyone know what the solution might be?

Hi @lennertdefeyter,

Sorry for the delayed response. Unfortunately, official support for Ubuntu 18.04 wasn't added until FME 2018.1. This is likely why you are running into this issue with FME 2016.1. You could try running this through a VM as a workaround.

You can see the full list of supported Linux distributions in the System Requirements Documentation for FME 2016.1.

Hope this information helps.

- Chris
