I installed Ubuntu 18.04 LTS as a Test server for some Java code where I am moving from WebLogic over to Tomcat. The code does not yet work with anything newer than Java 8, some of the packages I used are missing in Java 9 and 10, therefore it became a requirement to use Java 8.
I am attempting to get Tomcat8 installed via 'Apt install' in Bionic Beaver to work with Oracle 8. However, it seems Tomcat just wouldn't start up if Oracle 8 or Open JDK 8 is set as the primary JDK/JRE.
It works perfectly fine if I were to switch the JRE/JDK to Open JDK 10.
Any suggestions?
Thanks, yaCoder
