JabRef-3.8.2 has all the features I use (and need). Friday I got it working
on the 64-bit desktop running Slackware-14.2/x86_64 and jdk8. Today, when I
tried to load it I get this result:

Update:

JabRef-2.9.2 loads on the 64-bit desktop but does not display the keyword
groups. It lacks the button to re-generate the groups that is found on
3.8.2.

Upgrading from 2.9.2 to 3.8.2 worked once. When I made a group change, saved
the file, and tried re-start 3.8.2 it again failed.

Both 2.9.2 and 3.8.2 are running with Oracle's jdk8u-221.

What's different between 2.9.2 and 3.8.2 that allows the former to load
without error but also to not display groups?

Oliver tells me that JabRef-4.x and -5.x have linux issues and that 3.8.2
will do all I need, but I need to have it consistently load and run. Please
advise me what tests I can run to isolate the cause of this major (for me)
issue.

Rich
