Installing OpenJDK for Use With SOTI MobiControl

About this task

Note: OpenJDK 17 is an alternative to Oracle JDK. If you already have Oracle JDK installed, you do not need to install OpenJDK. Manual installation of prerequisites are no longer required as the SOTI MobiControl installer has them embedded.

To install and configure OpenJDK for use with SOTI MobiControl, perform the following steps:

Procedure

  1. Download the long-term supported (LTS) release of OpenJDK 17.
  2. Install OpenJDK to a local folder C:\Program Files\JavaOpenJDK.
  3. Restart your computer.
  4. To verify the installation success, open a command line window and run the java -version command.
    The command output must be as follows:
    openjdk version "17.0.12" 2021-07-20
OpenJDK Runtime Environment Temurin-17.0.12+7 (build 17.0.12+7)
OpenJDK 64-Bit Server VM Temurin-17.0.12+7 (build 17.0.12+7, mixed mode)
