Yeah, that could be the issue. The native JDK is at=20

/usr/ports/java/jdk13

You will have to download the linux binary for the JDK to build on FreeBS=
D,=20
however, after the JDK build procedure is completed the linux binary can =
go=20
away. If you cd to the above directory and run

make install clean

The build script will point you to the correct location as to where to=20
download the file.=20

As a point of curiosity, I have indeed noticed numerous inconsistencies a=
nd=20
problems across all JDK's for FreeBSD. However, the native JDK 1.3 has pr=
oven=20
to be the best among those offered.=20
