Traccar server 6.8.0 service failed to start

I am updating to say that in release 6.9, in my case, it is working again.

Thank you.

Just to highlight that latest Traccar Server 6.9.0 still inherit the same problem with bindled Java version 21.0.7 with Traccar Server setup files.

Latest Traccar Server 6.9.0 still inherit the same problem with service unable to start with bundled Java version 21.0.7 which comes with Traccar Server setup files. I have to upgrade to Java version 21.0.8 for Traccar Server service to run properly for the moment until bugs fixes.

Hi Juliet,

I think the problem may be the version defined here: https://github.com/traccar/traccar/blob/master/.github/workflows/release.yml#L41
JDK_VERSION="21.0.7+6"

Let's see if Anton can confirm this.

That's not where the Docker version is defined.

Juliet, are you using a Docker image?
