Reconfigure LogicalDOC to use Java 17 on Windows

Starting from version 8.9.1 LogicalDOC does not work with Java11 anymore so you have to install Java17. Please read first to install the right Java to use with LogicalDOC.

It is important to install Java17 and not Java18 nor Java19, because Java17 is the latest LTS(Long Term Support) release available at the moment.

Given <LDOC_HOME> the installation path of LogicalDOC(by default it is C:\LogicalDOC), please proceed as follows:

1. Install from Oracle or OpenJDK17

2. Open a shell as Administator and go to <LDOC_HOME>\tomcat\bin\

3. Execute the command LogicalDOCw.exe //MS/LogicalDOC

4. This creates a tray icon with the LogicalDOC’s logo

5. Right click on it and choose Configure...

6. Now open the Java tab

7. In the Java Virtual Machine put the full path of your jvm.dll (something like C:\Program Files\Java\jdk-11.0.4\bin\server)

8. Click on Apply and then Ok

9. Restart the LogicalDOC service

10. Open a shell as Administator and go to <LDOC_HOME>\update-wd

11. Execute the command 'update-wdw.exe //MS/LogicalDOC-Update

12. This creates another tray icon with the LogicalDOC’s logo

13. Right click on it and choose Configure...

16. Click on Apply and then Ok

17. Define the a system variable JAVA_HOME pointing to the Java11 installation path (something like C:\Program Files\Java\jdk-11.0.4)

18. Restart the LogicalDOC Update service
