Supported Tomcat version for Java 1.8.25

Hi,

We have a product which we certified on Tomcat 7.0.16 with JRE 1.6

One of our Customer want to upgrade his Java environment from 1.6 to 1.8.25

So i tried to start the Tomcat 7.0.16 using Java 1.8.25 and got below error
during the deployment of WAR file.
org.xml.sax.SAXNotRecognizedException:
http://apache.org/xml/features/validation/dynamic

Does Tomcat each version is designed to support a set of Java versions?
What is the best Tomcat version which I have to use in order to support
Java 1.8.25?

Thanks,
Vijay G

officially Tomcat 7.0.x is supported with java 1.6 or later [1].

There are a lot of solved software bugs within tomcat related to java
1.8 like this [2].

Therefore you should be able to start Tomcat 7.0.x with java 1.8, but
you should update from 7.0.16 to the latest version 7.0.62 [3].

I'm sure the error message contained more than that. Please provide the
complete error message from the logs including the stack trace.

You also need to upgrade your Tomcat version.
