Earlier versions of ConnectALL required an external Java installation. Starting with version 3.0, ConnectALL includes its own Java runtime, simplifying installation and upgrades.
Versions Prior to 2.11.2.5
- ConnectALL relied on an external Oracle JDK.
- Oracle Java had to be installed separately before installing ConnectALL.
Version 3.0 and Later
- ConnectALL is bundled with OpenJDK.
- Oracle JDK is no longer required.
- No separate Java installation is needed when installing ConnectALL version 3.0 or higher.
Upgrade Behavior (2.x to 3.0 or Higher)
- During an upgrade, the ConnectALL upgrade wizard automatically imports certificates from the existing Oracle Java keystore into the bundled OpenJDK keystore.
- The Oracle JDK may still remain installed on the server after the upgrade.
- If no other applications on the server depend on Oracle Java, it is safe to uninstall Oracle JDK.
- Verifying the JDK Used by ConnectALL
You can confirm which JDK ConnectALL is using by checking the following environment variables:
- JAVA_HOME
- JRE_HOME
- CONNECTALL_JRE_HOME
On Linux systems, you can also review the ConnectALL service configuration files to identify the configured Java runtime.
