In this step-by-step video, we walk through how to upgrade the Java Runtime Environment (JRE) in a GoAnywhere Windows deployment—from Java 11 to the latest supported version (e.g., 11.0.28 from Azul).
🔧 What You’ll Learn:
- How to check your current Java version and JRE path
- Where to download the latest Java build (Azul or other providers)
- How to safely stop GoAnywhere and prepare for downtime
- Renaming and replacing the JRE folder with the new version
- Handling integrated authentication (SQL Server JDBC auth DLL)
- Updating Java security settings for FIPS mode (if applicable)
- Verifying the upgrade and restarting GoAnywhere
⚠️ This upgrade requires a maintenance window and direct access to the GoAnywhere server. Be sure to back up your environment and follow all steps carefully.
