Hi Michael,

you should be fine using a contemporary version of Java like JDK17 or
JDK21.

Java version!

location of C:Program Files\Java, which was the same location as the
original 9.0.1.0 version.

failed to start. I'm not an SME (Subject Matter Expert) on JAVA or
Tomcat however if the content is important to resolve let me know.

procedures as above uninstalled Java 9.0.1 and installed java 8.422 and
it failed to start Apache Tomcat, so I once again had to revert to the
"vulnerable" Java 9.0.1.

Tomcat 9.0.84 or what I am missing to make the 8.xx versions I have
work? I can't simply upgrade Apache Tomcat as there are just too many
developers entrenched in this version.
