    Description

      start_xwiki.sh script (OSX) stops XWiki from starting if using Java 9.

       

      Reason

      In start_xwiki.sh :

      # Check version of Java
JAVA_VERSION=$(java -version 2>&1 | grep -i version | sed 's/.*version ".*\.\(.$
if [ "$JAVA_VERSION" -lt 8 ]; then
  echo This version of XWiki requires Java 8 or greater.
#  exit 0
fi

       

      Workaround

      Edit the script :

      Edit line:

      exit 0

      To become:

      # exit 0
