I downloaded JabRef-3.5.jar and I'm trying to execute it from the command line as follows:
java -jar JabRef-3.5.jar
Just as it says in this post.
Unfortunately, it doesn't work. It says:
Error: Unable to access jarfile JabRef-3.5.jar
Do I have to put the jarfile in a specific path to make it work?
Using Ubuntu 14.04.
Added information:
The .jar-file is in my "Downloads" directory. If I run
java -jar ~/Downloads/JabRef-3.5.jar
it says
Exception in thread "main" java.lang.UnsupportedClassVersionError: net/sf/jabref/JabRefMain : Unsupported major.minor version 52.0 at java.lang.ClassLoader.defineClass1(Native Method) at java.lang.ClassLoader.defineClass(ClassLoader.java:803) at java.security.SecureClassLoader.defineClass(SecureClassLoader.java:142) at java.net.URLClassLoader.defineClass(URLClassLoader.java:449) at java.net.URLClassLoader.access$100(URLClassLoader.java:71) at java.net.URLClassLoader$1.run(URLClassLoader.java:361) at java.net.URLClassLoader$1.run(URLClassLoader.java:355) at java.security.AccessController.doPrivileged(Native Method) at java.net.URLClassLoader.findClass(URLClassLoader.java:354) at java.lang.ClassLoader.loadClass(ClassLoader.java:425) at sun.misc.Launcher$AppClassLoader.loadClass(Launcher.java:308) at java.lang.ClassLoader.loadClass(ClassLoader.java:358) at sun.launcher.LauncherHelper.checkAndLoadMain(LauncherHelper.java:482)
Do I need to install basic java-packages first?
