After I upgraded Ubuntu to 18.04 from 16.04, XMind 8 (update8-linux) stopped working so I ran across a fix that consisted in adding a few lines to the .ini file. Everything was working great for a few months (even I created .desktop entry so I could launch the app from the dock). Until last week I couldn't open XMind anymore. The error prompt says to look at the .log file and this is the output:

You will need java-8-openjdk installed.
Step 1: apt install openjdk-8-jre Step 2: set default jre

> /usr/lib/jvm/java-8-openjdk-amd64/jre/bin/java 1081 manual mode
> 2 /usr/lib/jvm/jdk-12.0.1/bin/java 2
> manual modeStep 3: copy the jre 8 location Step 4: Update Xmind.ini file with following option -vm /usr/lib/jvm/java-8-openjdk-amd64/jre/bin
6For me the approach of ebenash worked. My XMind.ini file looked afterwards like this:
$ cat XMind_amd64/XMind.ini
-vm
/usr/lib/jvm/java-8-openjdk-amd64/jre/bin
-configuration
./configuration
-data
../workspace(with more below that...).
Note that I had to put a linebreak between -vm and the actual value /usr/lib/jvm...
This is how I managed to make it run again:
- Step 1: Select the java-8-openjdk option using the command
sudo update-alternatives --config java - Step 2: the earlier fix to the .ini file consisted in adding this line at the end of the file
--add-modules=ALL-SYSTEM. Remove this line. - Step 3: Relaunch the XMind program and it should work.
It seems XMind doesn't work with later versions of JVM, it needs Java 8 but can't run with the --add-modules option since it was introduced in later versions.
