@foer This is a localization bug in greenfoot. The warning is suppressed when english language is used. Other language settings (in your case german) still show this warning.

Within BlueJ this has been fixed. I expect this to be fixed upstream with the next greenfoot release.

Starting with Greenfoot 3.8.0-1 there is a warning on startup:

WARNUNG: Unsupported JavaFX configuration: classes were loaded from 'unnamed module @3a62b39e

It seems that it's only a warning and have no effect on functionality but students are very irritated by that. Is there a possibility to solve that problem?

Update: Linkin to Openjdk11 and java11-openjdk in /usr/bin/greenfoot stops the warning. It must have something to do with java17...

I did following changes locally to also have mime-types set correctly, to be able to open greenfoot when project.greenfoot is clicked.

Changed greefoot:

#!/bin/sh

        JAVAFX_HOME=/usr/lib/jvm/java-11-openjfx/lib

        JAVAFX_HOME=/usr/lib/jvm/java-11-openjdk/lib
fi

JAVAFX_CP="$JAVAFX_HOME/javafx.base.jar:$JAVAFX_HOME/javafx.controls.jar:$JAVAFX_HOME/javafx.fxml.jar:$JAVAFX_HOME/javafx.graphics.jar:$JAVAFX_HOME/javafx.media.jar:$JAVAFX_HOME/javafx.swing.jar:$JAVAFX_HOME/javafx-swt.jar:$JAVAFX_HOME/javafx.web.jar"
