Freemind.main.FreeMind can't be started

I am running Kubuntu 17.10.
Everytime I try to open Freemind 1.0.1 I get a dialoge box that reads freemind.main.FreeMind can't be started. I've tried a few things but nothing works. Please Help. Most the problems I see on the web are to do with Java. I tried to install an older version of Java but i couldn't figure out how to do it. This actually started the last time I opened freemind yesterday when I had freemind ver .9 installed. I thought the update may fix but I believe it's the same problem.

Thanks L33P
