javafx.controls could not be found JavaFX 11 / JDK 11.0.1

Question

I am using InteliJ, I've gone through all other solutions that seem to work for everybody else. I was getting an error:

Caused by: java.lang.IllegalAccessError: class com.sun.javafx.fxml.FXMLLoaderHelper (in unnamed module @0x5782d366) cannot access class com.sun.javafx.util.Utils (in module javafx.graphics) because module javafx.graphics does not export com.sun.javafx.util to unnamed module @0x5782d366

I then added the following to VM options in the run config:

--module-path="C:\Users\mresp_000\Desktop\Business\Code\SDKS\javafx-sdk-11.0.1\lib" \ 
    --add-modules=javafx.controls \
    --add-exports=javafx.graphics/com.sun.javafx.util=ALL-UNNAMED \
    --add-exports=javafx.base/com.sun.javafx.reflect=ALL-UNNAMED \
    --add-exports=javafx.base/com.sun.javafx.beans=ALL-UNNAMED \
    --add-exports=javafx.graphics/com.sun.glass.utils=ALL-UNNAMED \
    --add-exports=javafx.graphics/com.sun.javafx.tk=ALL-UNNAMED

That seemed to partially fix the problem? Howerver when I try to run this I don't get a whole stack trace of errors, I get these three lines:

I get the same error when I only put in the following to the VM options:

--module-path="C:\Users\mresp_000\Desktop\Business\Code\SDKS\javafx-sdk-11.0.1\lib"
--add-modules=javafx.controls,javafx.fxml

Here is a picture of my run options (I have ticked and un-ticked the "include dependencies withg provided scope" box, neither work.

The library is pointing to the right place and I've tried rebuilding the project, nothing is working. When I go to my command line and type:

dir "C:\Users\mresp_000\Desktop\Business\Code\SDKS\javafx-sdk-11.0.1\lib"

I get the following output:

So everything is infact there and pointing to the exact location it needs to be pointing to. Adding the .jar extension to the add-module also does nothing.

Answer 1

Try:

--module-path C:\Users\mresp_000\Desktop\Business\Code\SDKS\javafx-sdk-11.0.1\lib --add-modules=ALL-MODULE-PATH

as Runconfiguration, I don't know, maybe it works?
