Hello,
Once in awhile over the years, I do a project with AuctionSieve in Linux and I
usually have no problem.
Once again I have a project I want to do. But this time I don't seem to be able to get
AuctionSieve running in Linux.
First I tried in MX Linux Wildflower. AuctionSieve starts, and I
create a sieve and Get Auctions and AuctionSieve hangs with the error:

Typically I would install closed-source Oracle Java in hopes of getting things working, but doing so appears too difficult in MX Linux.
Next, I created a virtual machine in QEMU with guest Ubuntu 22.04, because I always had good luck with Ubuntu and AuctionSieve. I installed closed-source Oracle Java using a PPA. AuctionSieve again hangs after Get Auctions, with message:
