Serial Terminal crashes on Ubuntu Linux 24.04.3 when I power off my connected nRF9160DK board

[Burt]

Here is the Java error message box

A couple of interesting things:

1) Wasn't that stupid of me to mention a Java error when the Error box reported a JavaScript error?

2) But so weird, I found that my machine did not have java installed, and I then installed package default-jre using
$ sudo apt install default-jre

and the errors went away. I am more clever than I realized!!

Is there a way that the Serial Terminal could tell the user to install default-jre when the error happens?

Thanks.

Crash was too strong a term, forgive me. But I was forced to click OK in the Error box prior to resuming use of Serial Terminal (prior to my fix).

HI Bert, according to our SW team nRF Connect for Desktop does not use Java Runtime Environment. The issue is unknown to our developers.

Kind regards,

Thank you, I will close the ticket, Oyvind. Well, if anyone else experiences the same problem, maybe they will see my ticket.
