Java Build a JavaFX Application Graphical User Interfaces Adding an Event Handler

Add an event handler for playButton

I think I'm pretty close but still getting some java.lang.RuntimeException: No toolkit found errors!

Anyone can point me in the right direction?

playButton.setOnAction(evt -> System.out.println("Playing!"));

The full error message is

Funny that I tried it again just then and it pass me with flying colors. I guess there's some trouble in the backend that has been resolved

I had this problem on my local machine, the problem was that I was using the Linux x86 SDK when my computer runs on Ubuntu 64.

Probably, your code is handled by a server that has the same problem.

I just did this code challenge and I can't get it to pass probably because of the same thing.

Guess I'll contact support.
