There is no log generated in file nifi-app.

Please help. I am new to Apache nifi and want to start exploring it asap.

I looks like you are trying to use Java 11 to run your NiFi instance. NiFi 1.8 supports Java 8.

As of Java 9 the java.se aggregate module does not include the Java EE APIs.

This is why you are seeing the following:
org.apache.nifi.StdOut java.lang.module.FindException:Module java.xml.bind not found

I suggest installing the latest version of Java 8 and see if NiFI launches fine for you then.

There is on going work to add support for Java 9 - 11 in future releases of NiFi.

Thank you,
