MinimWatch - lesmithla - 13-05-2025 17:59
Hello. I've recently resubscribed my MinimServer software. I am running on Mac OS Monterey 12.7.6. I am unable to open MinimWatch. When I attempt to open the software I get a message telling me I must have Java 8. My current Mac OS tells me that the OS doesn't support Java 8. Please let me know if there is a solution.
Regards

I think the message says that you need Java 8 or later but this is not very helpful without more specific guidance.
As Java 8 is not working on macOS Monterey, you need to install a later version such as JDK 21. To do this, follow the instructions on this page.
I am working on improving the misleading message about Java 8.
