Uncaught exception occured in Thread [JavaFX Application Thread,5,main]

See original GitHub issue

JabRef 5.0-dev–snapshot–2019-02-04–master–a0c2e04ea Linux 4.15.0-45-generic amd64 Java 1.8.0_201

JabRef version JabRef 5.0-dev–snapshot–2019-02-04–master–a0c2e04ea on Ubuntu 18.04, maybe related to https://github.com/JabRef/jabref/issues/3431 or https://github.com/JabRef/jabref/issues/4567

I have tested the latest development version from http://builds.jabref.org/master/ and the problem persists

Steps to reproduce the behavior:

java -jar -Djavafx.embed.singleThread=true JabRef–master–latest.jar
Open 4633.bib.txt
Type “K” in the Searchfield (wait till suggestions)
add “a” in the Searchfield (wait till suggestions)
Error occurs
But you can ignore the error and just continue working

Just for your information, you no longer need the -Djavafx.embed.singleThread=true switch as we now more or less completely removed the old swing stuff.

There have been just some changes merged which could make this obsolete. But please wait until #4840 is resolved

This should be fixed in the latest development version. Could you please check the build from http://builds.jabref.org/master/. Thanks! Please remember to make a backup of your library before trying-out this version.
