** JDK 1.6 - 1.8
The framework basically uses JDK 1.6 to 1.8 or above. The JDK should be installed at the machine and its proper path should be set in the machine.
Installing Java The JDK (Java Development Kit) needs to be installed on the same server that will have Confluence installed. We support running Confluence with the JDK or JRE (Java Runtime Environment). These instructions will just cover installing the JDK.
For Windows:
Before you start, go to Control Panel > Programs and Features to check whether a JDK is already installed.
To install the JDK on Windows:
Download the appropriate JDK version.
Check the Supported Platforms page to find out which JDK / JRE versions are supported .
Run the Java installer. Make a note of the installation directory, as you'll need this later.
Once the Java installation is complete, check that the JAVA_HOME environment variable has been set correctly.
Open a command prompt and type echo %JAVA_HOME% and hit Enter.
If you see a path to your Java installation directory, the JAVA_Home environment variable has been set correctly.
If nothing is displayed, or only %JAVA_HOME% is returned, you'll need to set the JAVA_HOME environment variable manually. See Setting the JAVA_HOME Variable in Windows for a step by step guide.
For Linux: (click to expand)
Installing the JDK on Linux
Before you start, check whether a JDK is already installed. Open a shell console and type echo $JAVA_HOME and hit Enter.
If it returns something like /opt/JDK7 or /usr/lib/jvm/java-7, then your JDK is installed and properly configured.
If nothing is displayed, you'll need to install the JDK or set the $JAVA_HOME environment variable.
You can set this environment variable in your user account's 'profile' file. Alternatively, you can set this after installing Confluence, by defining this path in your Confluence installation's setenv.sh file, usually located in the Confluence bin directory.
If you have installed an unsupported JDK and you want to use SSL then you need to install the Sun JSSE package.
To install the JDK on Linux:
Download the appropriate JDK version.
Check the Supported Platforms page to find out which JDK / JRE versions are supported for your version of Confluence.
Run the Java installer. Detailed installation instructions are provided on Oracle's website.
Open a shell console and type echo $JAVA_HOME and hit Enter to check that it has installed correctly (see notes above).
