I got the same error (on Java 9 or above). For me the problem was due to a missing requires java.naming; directive in the module-info.java of my module (the module, that accesses Referenceable). Adding this directive fixed it:

module MyModule {
   requires java.naming;
   ...
}

I hope this helps.

As explained by Sander Mak here this usually happens when your code depends on something that does not have a module descriptor and this dependency's dependency is unresolved (e.g. you're using Hibernate which has no module descriptor but it requires java.naming).

In this case, rather than polluting your own module descriptor with the transitive dependency, Sander suggests to add the transitive dependency to your module graph using

--add-modules java.naming

This way when Hibernate in the future gets its own module descriptor you can just remove the above line and have only your direct dependencies in your module-info.java.
