Hi Rainer,

Thank you for the info. We did look at this matrix but we also found a 
conflicting article as well:

https://tomcat.apache.org/tomcat-9.0-doc/building.html

In this, the required JDK version is said to be JDK 11 or above. Can you help 
me understand the differences between the 2 articles?



Thank you
Joseph X.

Hi Joseph,

yes TC 9 is supported with JDK 8 (and higher), see

https://urldefense.com/v3/__https://tomcat.apache.org/whichversion.html__;!!KpaPruflFCEp!ma-2pPcVOuOsTkmfs7DESyaBow4GmIAfNqWr6x_pYE0_HUDDFMxTLosQB8Y-rtDMk7ZVj1BvF8CMlyuVg9x7e9BwtTlq$

Independent of your JDK 8 problems, you should try to stay current, so instead 
of 9.0.90 use 9.0.96 and define a patch strategy to let your installation not 
diverge too much from 9.0.current.

Concerning your specific JDK 8 problem you can do a separate post to the list 
describing your observed problem.

Best regards,

Rainer
