Try to update your system and Java:
apt-get update && apt-get upgrade

As I'm saying RC5 is broken for me. RC3 works fine. I can go to my rc3 dir, start it and it works. When I stop it and go to RC5 dir, start it, then it's stuck with the above error.
Hm not sure how it works with Java9...
Works fine with version 8.
I think devs will have take a look at this.
