My collaborator with more linux experience offered the info provided below. I think the best plan is to install Java 8 if possible and give Java 9 more time to mature.

Googling around on the error message returns similar errors abound in early releases of previous JDK's. Probably the solution for now is to regress to 8 if possible. The other recommendation out there is to use the Oracle Java instead of OpenJDK if that's an option.
It is possible he installed Oracle JDK 9 which is said to be a development version in this link, but it is a year old.

https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/openjdk-9/+bug/1551532I think it is likely this is a Java JDK/JRE error and the solution is to use another flavor of Java.
