J j_o_h_n Active Member Licensed User Longtime User May 26, 2020 #1 I'd be very grateful for any help anyone can give me on the following. I have a Windows Server VPS I want to run a non-UI B4J server app on it To get this to work I think I need to put the JRE on the VPS Because of Oracle licence changes I don't want to use their JRE I understand that the OpenJDK contains the OpenJRE so I'm hoping I can use that instead. Can I? If so, I saw where Erel speaks of uploading the JRE to Linux servers to a folder of your own choice but not doing any install. Is it the same on Windows? If I upload the OpenJDK folder to somewhere I choose then how does my app know where to find it? Thank you.
