Oracle Java

1.8
 1.7

• We recommend using Oracle JRE 8, which you can download from the Oracle website.
• For Java 8 we recommend 1.8.0u40+ to avoid critical defects in older versions.
• Stash only requires the Java JRE, not the JDK.
• For OpenJDK, download and install instructions for Linux flavors are at http://openjdk.java.net/install/.
• Note that the Stash installer will install a supported version of the Oracle Java JRE, which is only available to Stash, if necessary. See Running the Stash installer.
•  OpenJDK >= 1.8u25 and < 1.8u40 are not supported due to a severe defect, Bug 1167153. This was fixed in 1.8u40.
•  Support for Java 6 was removed in Stash 3.0, as previously announced.
•  Support for Java 7 is deprecated, and will be removed in Stash 4.0. See End of support announcements for Stash.

• Stash is a pure Java application and should run on any platform, provided all the Java requirements are satisfied.
• In production environments Stash should be run from a dedicated user account.
• Although Stash can be run in virtualised environments, Atlassian is not yet able to provide technical support for performance-related problems in a virtualised environment. If you do chose to run Stash in a virtual machine, please ensure that you choose a VM with good IO throughput and sufficient free memory. See hardware requirements below.

Microsoft Windows

(Not supported for 500+ Enterprise tiers)

• Please see connecting Stash to an external database.
• MySQL 5.6.15 and earlier: Note that Stash does not support versions of MySQL 5.6 earlier than 5.6.16, because of bugs in its query optimizer (#68424, #69005). See Connecting Stash to MySQL for more information.
• MySQL 5.7+ is not supported.
