The problem is .load() function at
Parent root = FXMLLoader.load(getClass().getClassLoader().getResource("/resources/PrimaryScene.fxml"));
Seems like it doesn't see the fxml file. I have done research on many similar questions here and there, but none of them helped. I tried multiple paths or moving fxml to main class etc.
Might be some problem with IDE configuration, i don't know what else can i do to make it work.
Im working with IntelliJ Idea Java 1.8(so JavaFX is automatically added). What may be important is the project was created as Empty Project not a JavaFX Project. I tried running another project as JavaFX project and it worked fine.
Im attaching error below:

Just make sure to put the fxml file into the src/main/resources/ directory of your project.
Also make sure that src/main/resources is marked as the resource root in intelij
Right click on folder -> Mark directory as -> "Resource Root"
Then use
Parent root = FXMLLoader.load(getClass().getResource("/PrimaryScene.fxml"));
Also duplicate of JavaFX and maven: NullPointerException: Location is required

I'm doing an application and I recently add a splashscreen with LauncherImpl.launchApplication (as a preloader for my app). Before that I was able to run the program in command line and in eclipse. Now eclipse works fine but no more command line. Here is my problem : Why can ide work but not cmd line ?
I get these errors :

Exception running application view.MainApp
Moreover eclipse says for LauncherImpl.launchApplication :
Discouraged access: The method 'LauncherImpl.launchApplication(Class, Class, String[])' is not API (restriction on required library 'C:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.8.0_161\jre\lib\ext\jfxrt.jar')
I have never seen such an error before, I found this on internet : Access restriction: The type 'Application' is not API (restriction on required library rt.jar)
But in this example I'm not sure they are using an executable jar. However I have to use one. And with an executable jar, even if I change rules as explained it doesn't work.
Help would be appreciate.
Thank you.
I'm working on a mp3 player which is using a JavaFX UI. When I start the application in NetBeans, it works fine. But when I create an executable jar with Clean and Build and start it with the cmd, I get an exception where the FXMLLoader loads the fxml file.
There must be a problem with the paths, right?

Exception running application jornsfx.JornsFX
I can't tell you for certain, but it looks like
getClass().getResource("/views/jornsFX.fxml")
in your start() method is null. The exception suggests it and also the file is named /views/JornsFX.fxml in the screenshot.
I have been given the following output when including an FXML file with 3 icons of type MaterialDesignIconView

I cannot pin point why I am getting this problem. I have downloaded the library the usual way using Intellij as well.
The solution to your problem should be to use FontAwesome 8.4-SNAPSHOT.
As described in the following link https://bitbucket.org/Jerady/fontawesomefx/issues/13/illegalaccesserror-on-fontawesomeicon version 8.9 has this bug.
This is the correct dependency:
<dependency>
<groupId>de.jensd</groupId>
<artifactId>fontawesomefx</artifactId>
<version>8.4-snapshot</version>
</dependency>
Hope this helps!
I have a file named dog.jpg that resides in c:\Temp. So its full Windows path is C:\Temp\dog.jpg
Every answer on this site suggests to replace the \ with a /, but none of these statements I tried seems to work:
Image image = new Image("C:\\Temp\\dog.jpg");
Image image = new Image("C://Temp//dog.jpg");
Image image = new Image("C:/Temp/dog.jpg");
(btw, it does work if I put dog.jpg in the current working directory and use:
Image image = new Image("dog.jpg");
)
I am getting the following exception report:

What am I doing wrong? And how can I get this Windows absolute path to work?
Thanks for your help.
Image class constructor requires a url rather than an absolute path, so add the protocol in your url
Image img = new Image("file:///C:/Temp/dog.jpg");
