Hi,
I wanted to update an Openfire server from 3.6.2 to 3.6.3 with the help of the deb archive. The server is a debian stable (etch/4.0) system with Java 5 installed. The update was successully but I didn’t see any Openfire process. After debugging some time I figured out several problems.
- If there is a problem with java there is not even a log entry.
When starting openfire manually I got the following output:
/usr/lib/jvm/java-1.5.0-sun/bin/java -server -DopenfireHome=/usr/share/openfire -Dopenfire.lib.dir=/usr/share/openfire/lib -classpath /usr/share/openfire/lib/startup.jar -jar /usr/share/openfire/lib/startup.jar

- According to jarcheck the postgreql support is compiled for java 6 only.
Then I looked on the website and couldn’t find the system requirements. I don’t know exactly where but after some time I found a clue that openfire should be compatible with Java 5 and 6.
Can anyone confirm or disprove this?
