Java 11.0.8 download links broken?

[frogsmock]

I thought I'd update the JVM to the latest version, but the "JAVA SE 11.0.8(LTS)" links on Adobe's  download page all seem to be broken. Anybody know how to reach someone to get these fixed, or if there are alternative downloads anywhere that are in compliance with Oracle's Java license?

Having the same problem. Link for the latest Java 8 download is alos broken.

Java 11 is now avaliable but it seems like the Java8 update is still missing.

Windows download (ZIP) just worked for me.

Thanks BKBK!.  The URL links on the download page are also corrected, with the URLs you referenced.

Taking a guess, it looks like the minor version of Java you're using (262) is higher than Adobe's code expects (255). I'd try installing a later major version of Java if you can, otherwise rolling back to an earlier minor version with a value lower than 255.

We did roll back to earlier minor version with a value lower than 255 in order to restore functionality, and that is not accepatable long term solution.  The part of the question also, if anyone uses 11 can someone verify that cfpdf tag works with cf2016 (update16) when using latest Java 11?

[BKBK]

Hi mr-t-ML4aQV,

On ColdFusion 2016 you may use Java 11 if your Update is 8 or higher. You should therefore expect cfpdf to work on Update 16.
