[jira] [Commented] (DIRSERVER-2118) ApacheDS 2.0 not working with Java 1.8

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/DIRSERVER-2118?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=15141053#comment-15141053 ] 

Emmanuel Lecharny commented on DIRSERVER-2118:
----------------------------------------------

No, it works with Java 7. You most certainly have an old Java version that the server is using. Check your classpath.

>                 Key: DIRSERVER-2118
>                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/DIRSERVER-2118
>             Project: Directory ApacheDS
>          Issue Type: Bug
>          Components: installer-plugin
>    Affects Versions: 2.0.0-M20
>         Environment: Windows7 Enterprise, Java8 (1.8)
>            Reporter: David Saslav
>            Priority: Critical
>
> The documentation on the Windows 64- and 32-bit download page reads "a Java Runtime Environment7 or later."  By "or later" I inferred my latest greatest Java8 environment would be ok but the unzipped .EXE file exits with error code 13 and "REQUIRED_VERSION=1.7".
> What gives?  
> Do I have to backgrade to Java 7 to use ApacheDS?  
> The Oracle page says "contact the vendor, Java 7 no longer available".
> Any suggestions as to how best proceed?
