Need to upgrade wildfly from 16.0.Final to 28.0.0.Final.

[shilpa N]

Using ant build tool and now 16 supported javax.* and as a part of 28 need to replace namespace with jakarta.*.

What are the steps to follow for my upgrade. I am new to wildfly as well

[Richard Opalka]

Hello Shilpa,

   I would suggest you the following migration path for your apps:

1) first migrate to WildFly 26.1.2 using JDK8 (Java EE API)

2) second migrate to WildFly 27.0.1 using JDK11 (Jakarta EE API) and

Maybe you want to do step 1 iterable i.e. 16 -> 17 -> ... -> 25 -> 26 and

if something doesn't work check RELEASE notes what has changed since last release

Hello Richard,

Actually we are using openJDK 11 and after few months planning to change to 17 so.

Could you please help me to understand what is the difference between JavaEE 8 and JakartaEE 8

[Richard Opalka]

Hello Shilpa,

   The only difference between Java EE 8 & Jakarta EE 8 is the package refactoring from javax.* to jakarta.*

Hello Richard,

Sorry to say this, actually from JAVA EE8 to Jakarta EE 8 will not change any package right, from EE9 we need to refactor from javax.* to jakarta.*

Could you correct me, is am wrong?

Hi Richard,

Actually we have a java project that has Ant has a build tool and as of now using openJDK 11 and wildfly 16 for project build so now planning to move to openJDK 17 so my question is can we use Wildfly 26 with Jakarta EE 8 as it is not changing any our code level because for Jakarta EE 8 is having the same specifications API which Java EE 8 is having right.

PLease correct me and give me the right solution for my research.

I am very thankful if I get a solution from your end, because from 2 days I am working on this and so confused like if i want to upgrade my wildfly that should support both openJDK 11 and 17, so what is the best wildfly version to use without any code level changes?

And what are the basic config level changes need to be done in the system?

Hello Shilpa,

   Yes, you're correct. Sorry for confusion.

WildFly 26.1.2

You will need to read the docs and release notes if you'll face some problems on your incremental migration to WildFly 26.1.2

So latest wildfly 26 is fine for open jdk 11 and 17 right?

[Shilpa]

Hi Richard,

Have one more doubt, do we need any tool to upgrade Wildfly versions?

--

Best Regards,

Shilpa

[Shilpa]

Hello Richard,

As I know that simply we can download any version of Wildfly that supports our jdk and simply we can mention wildfly path in the application and need to build our app right?

Could you please tell me anything extra things needs to be done as a part of upgrade?
