i really dont know how to look at this error since i'm kind of inexperienced with stuff like this. I'm not just looking for a straight up answer, but also someone who can explain me to solve these kind of errors. That way i will be able to fix it myself in the future.

Looks like an issue with your Java.

Make sure you're running java 8, and that other versions of java are not installed on your system.
