"java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: javax/xml/bind/annotation/XmlSchema" when accepting SDK licenses

Alright so I'm trying to build my React-Native app using Android Studio. I first ran into this error when building:
Failed to install the following Android SDK packages as some licences have not been accepted.
build-tools;29.0.2 Android SDK Build-Tools 29.0.2
To build this project, accept the SDK license agreements and install the missing components using the Android Studio SDK Manager.
Alternatively, to transfer the license agreements from one workstation to another, see http://d.android.com/r/studio-ui/export-licenses.html
Using Android SDK: C:\Users\jaspe\AppData\Local\Android\Sdk
When figuring that out I came across this answer which told me to accept the licenses. However in trying to do so I got the following error:
C:\Users\jaspe\AppData\Local\Android\Sdk\tools\bin>sdkmanager --licenses

To resolve which I found this post. I don't use brew, but I tried the second answer. It didn't work, sadly enough. Then I found out I didn't have a JDK installed, so I did that. But with the newest JDK installed I still get an exception:
C:\Users\jaspe\AppData\Local\Android\Sdk\tools\bin>sdkmanager.bat -licenses
Error occurred during initialization of boot layer
java.lang.module.FindException: Module java.xml.bind not found
And now I'm not sure what to do anymore. I found an answer explaining I needed to edit my project settings, but I think this doesn't apply to my project, and honestly I'm in a bit over my head. Does someone have experiences with these errors, and can help me fix them? I've spent the whole morning trying to figure this out, I'd expected building a runnable .APK as a demo would be easier...

You are using the wrong sdkmanager, tools directory has been deprecated
Open Android Studio and install the latest command-line tools:
This will create this folder in your Android SDK:
...\Android\Sdk\cmdline-tools\latest\bin
Now use the sdkmanager which is inside the bin directory to accept all the licenses:
C:\Users\jaspe\AppData\Local\Android\Sdk\cmdline-tools\latest\bin>sdkmanager.bat --licenses

#MatPag's answer has the solution I needed, but it took me a while to recognise it. Posting this answer for a specific case incase it helps someone else.
I was trying to setup Unreal Engine v4.25.4 when I encountered this error. I needed to run a batch script that came with Unreal Engine located at:
C:\Program Files\Epic Games\UE_4.25\Engine\Extras\Android\SetupAndroid.bat
which produced the error:
Android Studio Path: C:\Program Files\Android\Android Studio
Android Studio SDK Path: C:\Users\brianb\AppData\Local\Android\Sdk
Using sdkmanager: C:\Users\brianb\AppData\Local\Android\Sdk\tools\bin\sdkmanager.bat

Update failed. Please check the Android Studio install.
Press any key to continue . . .
Even after I located the sdkmanager.bat script and executed it according to MatPag's answer, my AndroidSetup.bat script was failing.
Eventually I realised the AndroidSetup.bat was trying to call the sdkmanager.bat from the wrong location.
I edited the AndroidSetup.bat file (line 61) as follows to correct the path:
:: set SDKMANAGER=%STUDIO_SDK_PATH%\tools\bin\sdkmanager.bat
set SDKMANAGER=%STUDIO_SDK_PATH%\cmdline-tools\latest\bin\sdkmanager.bat

Error: Could not find or load main class C:.Program Caused by: java.lang.ClassNotFoundException: C:.Program java11, intellij IDEA and javafx 11

I am working on a project using Intellij IDEA, JDK 11 and openjfx 11. everything seems to have been configured properly but when I add the path to the Javafx jar and add the needed javafx modules for my project in the VM options and run the code, I the following error
Error: Could not find or load main class C:.Program
Caused by: java.lang.ClassNotFoundException: C:.Program
when I remove the modules and path configuration from the VM options, i get the following error Caused by: java.lang.ClassNotFoundException: javafx.fxml.FXMLLoader , which I think it's because I don't have
the javafx modules in the vm option which are is required when using javafx11
how do I fix this problem? have i done a wrong configuration? I have combed the internet for the past 24 hours but couldn't get the help I wanted. Looking forward to your help. Thanks

I do not use JAXB and I have no idea where does this come from. More frustrating is I can build my app without any error.
I have tried the solutions in the following links, but none of them works for my case.

How to resolve java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: javax/xml/bind/JAXBException in Java 9
Has anyone experienced similar issues?

The JAXB APIs are considered to be J2EE APIs, therefore not present default class path in Java SE 9. In JDK 11 they are completely removed. But, these Java EE APIs that were provided in JDK 6/7/8 are still in the JDK.

Edit 10/2020:
I ran into this issue again some time ago when CircleCi update their java image from jdk8 to jdk11. I was able to solve this issue by updating the Gradle tool. Looks like in the latest version of Gradle lint no longer use JAXB APIs.
Old answer: Today I finally solve this issue. Here is what I did.
I attempted to solve this issue by reinstalling Android Studio 3.4. However I couldn't even start up Android Studio and I ran into this
java.lang.RuntimeException:
com.intellij.ide.plugins.PluginManager$StartupAbortedException:
Fatal error initializing 'com.android.tools.idea.AndroidInitialConfigurator'
Then I looked for answers and came across this page
[Can't start Android Studio][1]
[1]: https://superuser.com/questions/1391452/cant-start-android-studio
I reverted back to use jdk 8.
Android Studio 3.4 finally started up, and JAXBException was gone.

Classnotfound Exception when starting Opendaylight on WIndows

When I start Opendaylight Nitrogen (Karaf 0.7.0 or 0.7.1) I get the error that main class ...\etc\odl.java.security cannot be found.
As source of the error java.lang.ClassNotFoundException: ..\karaf-0/7/1\bin\//\etc\odl\java\security is mentioned.
I have Windows 10 and Java 9. I also tried it with Java 8 which also didn't work.
Hope you could help me with is issue.

Is it familiar for anyone?

I got the same issue while migrating the project from WAS 8 to WAS Liberty.
I did copying the jar commons-collections.jar in to the server location /servers/<server_name>/lib/global and resolved it.
So try to place the jar at IntelliJ local server.
