Cannot start Payara 5.Beta2 on Docker with jre8u161 (SupportedEllipticPointFormatsExtension), jre81u52 works

[simdevmon]

Description

---

When I use the latest Oracle JRE 8 u161, I cannot start Payara 5.Beta2. It is working fine with the previous JRE 8 u152 release.

Expected Outcome

I would expect that Payara works fine on the latest Oracle JRE 8 release.

Current Outcome

There is no SSL connection available. In the logfile there is the following error:

Context

I did some investigation and I had a look at the /jre/lib/jsse.jar file of both JRE 8u152 and JRE 8u161 and saw that the class was removed in u161.

Environment

• Payara Version: 5.Beta2
• Edition: Full
• JDK Version: Oracle 8u161
• Operating System: Linux

Your comparison also shows that you are trying to run Payara using a JRE now. Previously you have used a JDK which IMO is the way it should be. Have you tried to use a JDK of the current Java version to run Payara?

[simdevmon]

@svendiedrichsen Yes, on Docker I run installed the latest Oracle JDK 8u162 where the error occured.
Only the screenshots are from Windows and show the content of jsse.jar, which is part of the JRE.

[svendiedrichsen]

@simdevmon IMO you cannot run GF/Payara using a JRE. See GF doc here https://javaee.github.io/glassfish/doc/5.0/installation-guide.pdf - Installation requirements.

..If necessary, download and install the required JDK software...

[simdevmon]

@svendiedrichsen I had a typo in my previous post. I had it running on JDK, not JRE.

[smillidge]

looks like the removal of these classes is causing problems with Grizzly NPN
