          1. First of all, the most important:



            sudo apt-get installlibreoffice-java-commonjava-common



          2. Go to LibreOffice Options menu, choose Advanced and be sure Use Java runtime environment is checked and a Java version is selected.


          3. Now install your extension either by double-clicking on it in File Manager or by importing it in LibreOffice Extension Manager dialog.

            I think worth adding: at least with Ubuntu 16.04 and LanguageTool 4.2, you need Java 8, installable e.g. with apt install openjdk-8-jre-headless, and select Java 8 in LibreOffice. Java 7 won't work.

          I had this error with 12.04, turned out java just wasn't enabled in LibreOffice. Might sound silly, but worth a check.



          Go to Tools-Options-Advanced. I had the checkbox selected for "Use a java runtime environment", but right under that is "Java runtime environments(JRE) already installed:", and inside that list I hadn't selected anything.



          Checked the Oracle 1.7, restarted LibreOffice, installed LanguageTool, all was well.

          You need to have OpenJDK Java runtime installed. You can do so from the Ubuntu Software Center. Once done, download the LanguageTool, and choose open with Libreoffice. See image below

          As per your comments, I have installed Oracle Java, and tried installing LanguageTool, and I got the same error. So I would assume that it will not work with Oracle Java.

          Using Kubuntu 18.10 and Java 11, the following solution worked for me:




          1. Install the jaxb package: sudo apt install libjaxb-java


          2. Open LibreOffice, and go to Tools -> Options -> Advanced


          3. You should see the Oracle Corporation 11 JRE has been selected.


          4. Select the Oracle Corporation 11 JRE, and click on Class Path.


          5. Add /usr/share/java/jaxb-impl.jar



          Restart LibreOffice, and the error should go away. I don't know what else is loaded, and haven't come across any other side effects yes.

            I had this error with 12.04, turned out java just wasn't enabled in LibreOffice. Might sound silly, but worth a check.



            Go to Tools-Options-Advanced. I had the checkbox selected for "Use a java runtime environment", but right under that is "Java runtime environments(JRE) already installed:", and inside that list I hadn't selected anything.

            You need to have OpenJDK Java runtime installed. You can do so from the Ubuntu Software Center. Once done, download the LanguageTool, and choose open with Libreoffice. See image below



            enter image description here



            If you open writer, you will see it



            enter image description here



            enter image description here



            As per your comments, I have installed Oracle Java, and tried installing LanguageTool, and I got the same error. So I would assume that it will not work with Oracle Java.

            Using Kubuntu 18.10 and Java 11, the following solution worked for me:




            1. Install the jaxb package: sudo apt install libjaxb-java


            2. Open LibreOffice, and go to Tools -> Options -> Advanced


            3. You should see the Oracle Corporation 11 JRE has been selected.


            4. Select the Oracle Corporation 11 JRE, and click on Class Path.


            5. Add /usr/share/java/jaxb-impl.jar



            Restart LibreOffice, and the error should go away. I don't know what else is loaded, and haven't come across any other side effects yes.
