Thanks for your hint. Indeed it is not related to the Java version. 

The problem was caused by a symbolic link to the executable, which is
used in a script to start the application.

It's a pitty that the apps folder is not the one of the symbolic link,
but the one of the real executable.

Anyway, thanks for your help.
