I recently installed IntelliJ and SceneBuilder on Ubuntu, and when I want to open a .fxml in IntelliJ it asks me to locate the executable. But I can't seem to find anything executable which has something to do with SceneBuilder. I just downloaded and installed the .deb-file of SceneBuilder. What to do?

You can try rebooting to see if file associations get updated. – TheWanderer Sep 18 '15 at 00:55

@Zacharee1 And why should a reboot solve the problem? – A.B. Sep 18 '15 at 05:10

Please add the file name of the deb file into your question. And give me a ping with @A.B. – A.B. Sep 18 '15 at 05:13

The .deb-file I installed was named scenebuilder-8.0.0.deb, @A.B. – Recusiwe Sep 18 '15 at 06:39

The executable is
/opt/SceneBuilder/SceneBuilder
Why? That's why.
dpkg -L scenebuilder | grep bingives no output, ok, let's continute with step 2
dpkg -L scenebuilder | grep desktopgives
/opt/SceneBuilder/SceneBuilder.desktopand
grep 'Exec=' /opt/SceneBuilder/SceneBuilder.desktopgives
Exec=/opt/SceneBuilder/SceneBuilderand that's your executable.
You could also use
find /opt/SceneBuilder -type f -executable
but in the installation are so many attributes set incorrectly, that makes no sense. The output of the command has 99 entries.
