I want to launch my java fx application from jar, but I catch the following error:

I use dagger2 for dependecy injection, and inside start() method my application component is initializing. Very strange, 'cause I've included javax.inject dependecy in pom file. Language level - 8. JDK/JRE version 1.8.0_192. Artifact - java fx application.

You need to be sure that your container is providing dependency javax.inject
or simply remove <scope>provided</scope>:
<dependency>
<groupId>javax.inject</groupId>
<artifactId>javax.inject</artifactId>
<version>1</version>
</dependency>
Also it will be better to explicitly set the source and target properties for the maven-compiler-plugin:
<plugin>
<groupId>org.apache.maven.plugins</groupId>
<artifactId>maven-compiler-plugin</artifactId>
<version>3.6.1</version>
<configuration>
<source>1.8</source>
<target>1.8</target>
<annotationProcessorPaths>
<path>
<groupId>com.google.dagger</groupId>
<artifactId>dagger-compiler</artifactId>
<version>2.16</version>
</path>
</annotationProcessorPaths>
</configuration>
</plugin>
And if you want to run your application with this command java -jar MyApp.jar you need to provide all dependencies in the -cp flag or inside of the jar.
To package your jar with the whole list of dependencies, you can use maven-assembly-plugin, like this:
<plugin>
<artifactId>maven-assembly-plugin</artifactId>
<executions>
<execution>
<phase>package</phase>
<goals>
<goal>single</goal>
</goals>
</execution>
</executions>
<configuration>
<archive>
<manifest>
<mainClass>
!!!com.package.path.ClassWithMainMethodName!!!
</mainClass>
</manifest>
</archive>
<descriptorRefs>
<descriptorRef>jar-with-dependencies</descriptorRef>
</descriptorRefs>
</configuration>
</plugin>
