Hopefully this will help others until everything gets updated to the latest Java version. It looks like 8u51 has security issues, so hopefully the need for this will be short lived.

Thanks for the pointer. This should help other users.

The Synology ARMv5 Java installer isn't part of MinimServer. The installer package is maintained by patters and is described on this page. It is unfortunate that this package is tied to a specific version of Java and needs to be updated manually every time the Java version moves forward.
