How to fix “unsupported class file major version 60” in tomcat9?

I have a maven project. It's written in Java 16. I have the Java 16 JDK installed.

When I build it with dockerfile, everything works, but when I run docker and I go on my project url I got an "unsupported class file major version 60".

Is that possible to run java 16 project on tomcat or on something else ?

There is my some of my files:

DockerFile:

FROM maven:3.8.1-openjdk-17 as builder
RUN mkdir -p /root/.m2 && mkdir /root/.m2/repository
COPY . /app/
RUN cd /app && mvn clean package -Dmaven.test.skip=true

FROM tomcat:9.0-jdk16-openjdk
COPY --from=builder /app/target/demo.war /usr/local/tomcat/webapps
ENV CATALINA_OPTS=""
EXPOSE 8080
CMD ["catalina.sh", "run"]

And my pom.xml:

Solution

  • As already remarked in the comments by Joachim, your problem is due to the ASM version packaged by Jersey. It is similar to this question regarding Spring.

    The easiest way to find the highest version of Java supported by ASM is to look at the source code:

    • Jersey 2.40 supports up to Java 21,
    • Jersey 2.38 and 2.39.x support up to Java 20,
    • Jersey 2.36 and 2.37 support up to Java 19,
    • Jersey 2.35 supports up to Java 18,
    • Jersey 2.34 supports up to Java 17 (cf. source code),
    • Jersey 2.33 supports up to Java 16,
    • Jersey 2.30 supports up to Java 15 (with a warning for Java 15),
    • Jersey 2.29 supports up to Java 14 (with a warning for Java 14),
    • Jersey 2.28 (first EE4j version) supports up to Java 12.

    As for the 3.x branch, all versions support Java 16, while the latest (3.0.2) supports also the upcoming Java 17.
