Java library/dependency errors with the xMatters Agent or Integration Agent

Problem

Running an xMatters Agent script based on a fresh installation generates library/dependency errors in the logs.

For example:

Environment

All versions of xMatters

Solution

The Integration Agent and xMatters Agent have different Java requirements, and the version of Java you're using needs to be compatible with both applications. It's recommended to test the JRE before changing the Java version. The xMatters Agent can be tested using AdoptOpenJDK11 version of the JRE.

Cause

Incompatible Java versions. For more detailed information and recommendations, see the download sites for xMatters Agent or Integration Agent.
