Jetty 12 and Lucee 6.2.x

apenhorwood · July 26, 2025, 4:14pm

Anyone using Lucee 6.2.x on Jetty 12? I have used Jetty 8, 9 and 10 in production but Jetty 12 seems to be a new beast. Lucee never deploys. I can’t even serve static content.

OS: Linux and Windows
Java Version: JDK 21.0.8+9
Tomcat Version: n/a
Lucee Version: Lucee 6.2.1.122.jar

You’ll need the javax libraries, 6.2 supports Jakarta (i.e. jetty 12) but is still javax based

See the addJavaXjars function around line 237

<cfscript>
	tmpDir = getDirectoryFromPath(getCurrentTemplatePath()) & "tmp-installer/";
	log = [];
	expressTemplate=server.system.environment.express ?: false;
	if ( expressTemplate ){
		tomcat_version = server.system.environment.expressTomcatVersion;
		srcVersion = "";
		switch(tomcat_version){
			case "9.0":
				tomcat_win_exe = "tomcat9w.exe";
				break;
			case "10.1":
				tomcat_win_exe = "tomcat10w.exe";
				break;
			case "11":
				tomcat_win_exe = "tomcat11w.exe";
				break;
			default:
				throw "unsupported tomcat version [#tomcat_version#]";
		}

Lucee 7 latest snapshots should just work as we switched to Jakarta
