title: Netbeans crashes while initializing and so does Eclipse
body: <p>Currently running Lubuntu 18.04</p>
  
  <p>Okay so I installed NetBeans and it crashed on startup.  Purged Netbeans and reinstalled it fresh.  It crashed again.  After that I installed eclipse and when I tried to start it I was presented with a directory for an error log:</p>

  <p>So I'm at a loss I'm pretty sure it has to do with the JRE/JDK versions but I don't even know which version should work with eclipse or netbeans. I really just need an easy way to compile java I'm trying to get this set up for a class I'm taking.</p>
