Advanced Authentication product supports AdoptOpenJDK version 8. If there is a need to move to AdoptOpenJDK from Oracle JDK please see below steps.

1. For Application Server

 Please make the necessary changes so that the application server is using AdoptOpenJDK at the startup and Oracle Java is not used. e.g for Tomcat Application server the changes can be done as below mentioned steps
 
 Go to TOMCAT_HOME/bin directory and double click on the tomcat9w.exe file.

 
2. Copy the database access files

 Set Java Home:

 Verify that you set the JAVA_HOME environment variable. For Apache Tomcat, set JAVA_HOME to the Java home directory corresponding to the JDK that you are using. Include the $JAVA_HOME/bin directory in the PATH environment variable.

 Copy the Database Access Files:

 Admin Console and UDS use the following files to access the database securely:
 libArcotAccessKeyProvider.so (Linux) or ArcotAccessKeyProvider.dll (Windows)
 ARCOT_HOME/native/<platform name>/<64bit>/
 arcot-crypto-util.jar available at ARCOT_HOME/java/lib/
 
 Copy the libArcotAccessKeyProvider.so (Linux) or ArcotAccessKeyProvider.dll (Windows) file to the following directory:

• For RHEL & WINDOWS: <JAVA_HOME used by Apache Tomcat>/jre/bin
• Copy the arcot-crypto-util.jar file to the following directory: <JAVA_HOME used by Apache Tomcat>/jre/lib/ext
