Public bug reported:

dhis2-lite is designed to be deployed without any configuration.  Unpack
and go ... It should be able to be launched by just double-clicking on
the executable jar file.

To achieve this the application must be able to determine the directory
its running out of (mostly in order to find its H2 database files).  the
system property user.dir reports the current working directory on
windows but the behaviour is different on ubuntu gome (and presumably
other linux + window manager combinations).

Current workaround on ubuntu is to start manually from a console:
java -jar dhis2-lite.jar
