     [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/AMQ-7223?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:all-tabpanel ]

Robbie Gemmell closed AMQ-7223.
-------------------------------
       Resolution: Invalid
    Fix Version/s:     (was: 5.15.9)

The broker requires Java 8. The issue is that you are trying to start it on Java 7.

The UnsupportedClassVersionError being thrown by the ClassLoader indicates the encountered class bytecode version 52 (used by Java 8) is not supported. Thats is because you are using Java 7 which only supports up to bytecode version 51 (used by Java 7).
