Appcelerator Studio can't login

Question

I am trying to use Appcelerator Studio but when it starts I can't write my e-mail on the textbox.

UPDATE: I forgot to mention that I am on Linux Ubuntu 16.04

I can press buttons or click link but I can't insert any text on the "Email" or "Password" field, it seems like they are disabled or there is a bug which doesn't put focus on them even if I click:

This is the console stack trace:

Answer 1

Bug might be specific to your OS environment.

However, try login from CLI and then launch the studio.That will skip login screen.

appc login

And, looking at the console log - it's better to use JDK 1.7 as JDK 1.8 and higher is not officially supported by Appcelerator Studio 4.8.1.
