Thanks a lot! I tried to configure https://builds.apache.org/job/Ant-Build-Matrix-1.9.x according to this matrix. For some reason the "JDK 1.X (unlimited security) 64-bit Windows only" with X=7,8 don't seem to work. Do I need to narrow down the selection of nodes beyond "label=Windows"? Also I've frequently run into OutOfMemory errors in the Ubuntu nodes, most notable the HXY nodes. For now I use !yahoo-not-h2 to restrict the selection of Ubuntu nodes, I am not sure this is the best option, though. > The best options for 'latest' versions is the ones at the top of the table > 'JDK 1.x (Latest)' > which are all installed on all nodes and managed via puppet. Does platform "Ubuntu" mean these options are not available to Windows nodes? > Very recent addition is also that of the JDK 9 b128 Early Access > Build. This is awesome. Unfortunately it didn't work in our case either. https://builds.apache.org/job/Ant-Build-Matrix-1.9.x/32/jdk=JDK%209%20b128%20(early%20access%20build),label=Ubuntu/console ,---- | Error: JAVA_HOME is not defined correctly. | We cannot execute /home/jenkins/tools/java/jdk-9-ea-b128/bin/java `---- Cheers Stefan
