Description
According to this page https://www.mysql.com/support/supportedplatforms/database.html MySQL 8 is supported on all major operating systems and MySQL 5.6 and 5.7 are no longer supported on some versions (e.g. RedHat Enterprise Linux 8, Windows 2019 Server).
Add support for MySQL 8 in Fisheye and Crucible.
Hi everyone,
Our development team checked possibility of adding support for MySQL 8. It turned out that it's impossible without updating the MySQL JDBC Connector driver, the Active Objects library (it's being used to persist data by plugins) and rewriting database upgrade tasks. Unfortunately, the Active Objects library depends on the Atlassian Platform (a set of Atlassian and third party libraries on which all products are built). Active Objects cannot be upgraded without upgrading the platform itself, which is a breaking-change (all third party plugins must be re-built and possibly some parts of them re-written) and because of this requires a platform release of Fisheye/Crucible - v 5.0.0.
While we have this feature request on the long-term roadmap, it won't be done sooner than end of 2024, if not later.
Kind regards
Marek Parfianowicz
Development Team Lead
