John,

Thought I had respnded to this; perhaps not.

JabRef is apparently very sensitive to which version of jdk is installed.
Through version 4 java8 (and earlier) were required. The new version 5
requires java11 (a LTS release).

Anyway, I gave up on JabRef and removed all packages (but kept a jdk for use
by other java applications.) I installed, configured, and am using
kbibtex-7.0.7 (because newer versions need a newer KDE than is now present.)

Regards,

Rich
