Java with Ubuntu 20.04 LTS

This is docker images of Ubuntu 20.04 LTUS with different versions of java

For compatibilty old version with 14.04 and 16.04 are still available but depricated and should not be used.

Now changed OpenJDK to the Adopt LTS versions 8 and 11

Examples

This images are build on nimmis/ubuntu which are a modified version of ubuntu with a working init process, fixes for some docker bugs and a working cron and syslog. Services are started with supervisor daemon, for more information about that see nimmis/ubuntu⁠

what happened to java xxx

Old versions of java that has beed end of life for several years have been removed as they are no longer safe to run.

Oracle version of java is no longer free so no version beond 8 will be released.

what happened to the Ubuntu 14.04/16.04 version?

On request I have recreated the old 14.04/16.04 versions with prefix 14.04- 16.04- See TAGS for a full list

These tags should be considered depricated an may be removed later

starting the container with a normal shell

docker run -ti nimmis/java:openjdk-11-jdk /bin/bash
root@aad708a5ca6b:~# java --version
openjdk 11.0.11 2021-04-20
OpenJDK Runtime Environment AdoptOpenJDK-11.0.11+9 (build 11.0.11+9)
OpenJDK 64-Bit Server VM AdoptOpenJDK-11.0.11+9 (build 11.0.11+9, mixed mode)

This will start the container with a normal shell, no cron or other systems are started

starting the container as a daemon

docker run -d nimmis/java:openjdk-11-jdk

This will start the container with the init process running, access the container with

docker exec -ti <container ID> /bin/bash
