    • Our product teams collect and evaluate feedback from a number of different sources. To learn more about how we use customer feedback in the planning process, check out our new feature policy.

      NOTE: This suggestion is for JIRA Cloud. Using JIRA Server? See the corresponding suggestion.

      Currently Supported Platforms doesn't list of any vendors of JDK that we support/test our application with.

      Based on our bad experience with the IBM's JDK JRA-19379 we should test OpenJDK and update our documentation accordingly.

      OpenJDK becomes more popular due to its availability in linux editions. It would be worth giving some guidelines to our customers to help them avoid possible disappointments.

      FYI. Confluence according to the Supported Platforms page supports only Sun JDK.

            [JRACLOUD-21680] Test compatibility between JIRA and OpenJDK

            Dominik K added a comment - - edited

            We didn't experience any noticeable problems running JIRA v7.1.9#71013-sha1:1aa0586 on OpenJDK 1.8.0*

            Apropos: Oracle charges for some Java parts and it's easier to be on the save side with OpenJDK.

             

            *The version included in the official download package with which JIRA is started.

            openjdk version "1.8.0_111"
            OpenJDK Runtime Environment (build 1.8.0_111-b15)
            OpenJDK 64-Bit Server VM (build 25.111-b15, mixed mode)

            What is the actual status of this? I would really appreciate if OpenJDK is finally (official) supported as it is with crowd!

            For those using Ubuntu and having problems installing Oracle JDK, this guide could help: http://www.ubuntugeek.com/how-to-install-oracle-java-7-in-ubuntu-12-04.html.

            Support for OpenJDK would make it possible to run JIRA on FreeBSD without any problems.

            +1 for supporting openJDK!

            FYI. Confluence according to the Supported Platforms page supports only Sun JDK.

            Which makes that page inconsistent because they list "Apple Mac OS X" as a supported Operating System, but there is no Sun JDK available for Mac.
