The issue here is outdated java runtime, this plug in requires JRE8.

To install JRE8 run this commands in terminal

sudo apt-get install openjdk-8-jre

You may also need this package

sudo apt-get install libreoffice-java-common

Source and other troubleshooting tips.

You need to install JRE8

Press

Ctrl + Alt + T

The terminal opens

Now type

sudo add-apt-repository ppa:webupd8team/java
sudo apt-get update
sudo pt-get install oracle-java8-installer

This install java8 in the system.

To check the version type-

java -version

which gives you the output

java version "1.8.0_91"
Java(TM) SE Runtime Environment (build 1.8.0_91-b14)
Java HotSpot(TM) 64-Bit Server VM (build 25.91-b14, mixed mode)

OR

javac -version

which gives you the output

javac 1.8.0_91

You may also need to install libreoffice-java-common.

For this type:

sudo apt get install libreoffice-java-common
