Arduino 1.8.13 installation problem

(solved)Hello I am trying to install arduino 1.8.13(latest version).But its giving me this error:

`Picked up JAVA_TOOL_OPTIONS:
Set log4j store directory /home/minix/.arduino15
WARNING: An illegal reflective access operation has occurred

arduino  5.68s user 0.26s system 239% cpu 2.482 total`

Its seems to be an error due to java runtime.Its installed but crashing every time I tried to launch it.What should I do?

Re: Arduino 1.8.13 installation problem

That's a application stacktrace not related to the jvm.

Afaik this one happens if you don't have a core installed, install the optional arduino-avr-core.
