Is there any documentation stating the compatibility of the JRE version and the dbconnect App?

It seems that jre version 9 is not compatible with the latest version of dbconnect (3.1.2). But it has not been stated Specifically.
Is there any documentation which states the compatibility of various jre versions with dbconnect. Need this for compliance.

Error with 9:

{"detail": "{'jre_need': 'Need Oracle Corporation JRE version 1.8', 'jre_using': 'Using Oracle Corporation JRE version 9, Java HotSpot(TM) 64-Bit Server VM', 'message': 'Unsupported JRE detected'}", "message": {"jre_need": "Need Oracle Corporation JRE version 1.8", "jre_using": "Using Oracle Corporation JRE version 9, Java HotSpot(TM) 64-Bit Server VM", "message": "Unsupported JRE detected"}, "code": 500} 

Kindly advise.

You need JRE version 8 to use DBConnect 3.1.2. I've updated the documentation. Thanks!

Its working with version 8 but not working with the latest version of JRE (9.0.4)released on January 16, 2018.
Is there a way to make it work with 9.0.4. Could you share the expected time line for releasing the update to support version 9.

Kindly advise.

Hi Kamal,

A JIRA has been opened with the engineering team for this update. However, we currently do not have an expected timeline for completing this work.

Thanks and apologies for any inconvenience this may have!

Go to the documentation page (http://docs.splunk.com/Documentation/DBX/3.1.2/DeployDBX/Prerequisites) and submit feedback asking for specific JRE version numbers. The docs team likely will update the page with that information quickly.
