Tomcat 8 Compatibility

[timlarsen]

Hi all - we may be required to install the latest version of Tomcat 8 on our JSS per internal audit. We are running JSS 9.63 on Windows 2008 R2 and would likely plan to upgrade to 9.72 as well...

I know that JAMF officially recommends Tomcat 7 - but does anyone have any good/bad experience running 8?

Thanks,
Tim

I haven't tried setting up a JSS with Tomcat 8… sounds fun. If you have a Windows VM you can spin up I'd say there's no harm in making yourself a test/dev JSS to try it out.
