What might be causing this error?

My Java version is

java version "1.8.0_281"
Java(TM) SE Runtime Environment (build 1.8.0_281-b09)
Java HotSpot(TM) 64-Bit Server VM (build 25.281-b09, mixed mode)

Issue with Java. I was using java 1.8.0_271 and getting same error. Had to downgrade to 1.8.0_251 to make it work.
