After a couple of research, you should consider reinstalling OpenGL ES and maybe GTK too. There's a problem during initialization and Java can't render the application.

It could be a problem from Java version used at runtime which has to be Java 8. Let's check the default java version used by your system :

ls -l /usr/lib/jvm

If it's not the right version, you can change it with this command :

sudo update-alternatives --config java

You also can check that java is accessible with this command :

java -version

You can have more informations with these options :
