Hi Oliver,
Thank you for reporting the issue. You hit the right person with it.
I filed https://bugs.openjdk.org/browse/JDK-8369008 on your behalf.
Should you have another jpackage question/bug report, please write to
[email protected] mail list. This way you will get prompt
response even if one of jpackage maintainers is not available.

Dear Alexey,
I am one of the maintainers of JabRef, an open source JavaFX
application aiming to educate newcomers on Java.
I am writing you since I think, I have an issue introduced via
https://bugs.openjdk.org/browse/JDK-8333664.
In JDK24, when on macOS, using jpackage, and building a DMG, there is
the possibility to provide a .properties file using
"--file-associations". There I have "icon=jabref.icns". When building
with JDK24, everything works fine. With JDK25, I get
"java.nio.file.NoSuchFileException: jabref.icns".
In JDK25, when giving a relative path from the directory where
jpackage is called, it works.
The icon file is placed in the same directory as the ".properties"
file. - I think, the path given in the .properties file should be
resolved relatively from the path of that file - and not from the
directory where jpackage is started.
Are you the right person to ask for support or should I mail this to
another place?
TYIA and greetings,
Oliver
