java -version shows;
openjdk version "9.0.1.3"
OpenJDK Runtime Environment (Zulu build 9.0.1.3+11)
OpenJDK 64-Bit Server VM (Zulu build 9.0.1.3+11, mixed mode)
Thanks, that did the trick. I simply downloaded the Zulu 8 version, adjusted my java alternatives settings, and so far am now in configuration mode in PaperUI. Thanks!
Am having some unexpected exceptions, so reviewed the Zulu download comments which show “glibc v2.5 and higher”
I checked my glibc version with;
$ apt-cache policy libc6
Which responded with;
libc6:
Installed: 2.23-0ubuntu9
Candidate: 2.23-0ubuntu9

I also tried;
$ apt-cache policy glibc-source

I keep fairly current on updates, and running following update command below only resulting in a couple of small updates. Rerunning the glibc and libc6 resulted in the same output as before.
$ sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get upgrade
As I am running Ubuntu Studio 16.04 LTS, it appears either I need to shift to the most recent Ubuntu version and hope that it upgrades to the minimum glibc, or try a different JRE. Hence, I will try the Oracle 8 JRE, and will report back.
