It seeems that the java binary does not have execution permission. Executing chmod a+x /usr/bin/java/jre-8u171-i586/bin/java might solve the issue.

But there is something wrong with how you installed java. I would try to install it using the package manager.

java - Permission denied trying to execute a jar file packaged by Maven with included dependencies on a user account - Stack Overflow
September 15, 2019 - I set up pom.xml to build a jar file and include the necessary dependencies, and packaged it up. This is all happening on Ubuntu 19.04, by the way, and also it's my first project using Maven. Testing the resulting file out in my own account and home folder, it seems to work fine (no matter where I put it)... However, when I copy it to the user account I get this error: java.io.FileNotFoundException: /tmp/jSerialComm/1568526835050-libjSerialComm.so (Permission denied) at java.base/java.io.FileOutputStream.open0(Native Method) at java.base/java.io.FileOutputStream.open(FileOutputStream.java:298)
