OpenJDK 11.0.7

kooi — Thu, 13 Jan 2022 12:22:06 GMT

Hello,

We are an on-prem enterprise customer and am looking to upgrade from 5.2 to 7.1. According to the Supported Platforms, we have to download OpenJDK 11.0.7. I've looked everywhere and cannot find 11.0.7. An Alfresco Support person is also trying but his searches come back to the same as mine. We've spent 2 weeks looking for OpenJDK 11.0.7. Does anyone know where I can download this version? In OpenJDK.com Archives site (https://jdk.java.net/archive/), it's only up to 11.0.2. So how did Alfresco find OpenJDK 11.0.7? Hopefully someone in this forum can help. We are running out of time to upgrade before Alfresco will start charging us more for staying on 5.2. We've been trying to upgrade, but always encounter issues.

Thanks,

Keat

Check this web page:

I can see latest 11 as 11.0.13

Thank you @angelborroy. So it doesn't matter that it is 11.0.13 when the Alfresco Supported Platform says 11.0.7? A long while back, when I wanted to use a different version of something, Support says I cannot veer away from what is suggested. Otherwise, they won't support my installation. So I'm always looking for the exact version.

It's always a better alternative to use the exact version for the JDK, but it should work with a more recent one.

The version suggested by Support is the one that has been used to perform all the verifications, validations and releases of the product version, so it's the safest version you can use.
