## Running Minecraft server on different Java version
!!! note
For Forge versions less than 1.18, you _must_ use the `java8-multiarch` (or other java8) image tag.
When using the image `itzg/minecraft-server` without a tag, the `latest` image tag is implied from the table below. To use a different version of Java, please use an alternate tag to run your Minecraft server container.
| Tag name | Java version | Linux | JVM Type | Architecture |
|-------------------|--------------|--------|-------------|-------------------|
| latest | 17 | Ubuntu | Hotspot | amd64,arm64,armv7 |
| java8 | 8 | Alpine | Hotspot | amd64 |
| java8-jdk | 8 | Ubuntu | Hotspot+JDK | amd64 |
| java8-multiarch | 8 | Ubuntu | Hotspot | amd64,arm64,armv7 |
| java8-openj9 | 8 | Debian | OpenJ9 | amd64 |
| java8-graalvm-ce | 8 | Oracle | GraalVM CE | amd64 |
| java11 | 11 | Ubuntu | Hotspot | amd64,arm64,armv7 |
| java11-jdk | 11 | Ubuntu | Hotspot+JDK | amd64,arm64,armv7 |
| java11-openj9 | 11 | Debian | OpenJ9 | amd64 |
| java17 | 17 | Ubuntu | Hotspot | amd64,arm64,armv7 |
| java17-jdk | 17 | Ubuntu | Hotspot+JDK | amd64,arm64,armv7 |
| java17-openj9 | 17 | Debian | OpenJ9 | amd64 |
| java17-graalvm-ce | 17 | Oracle | GraalVM CE | amd64,arm64 |
| java17-alpine | 17 | Alpine | Hotspot | amd64 |
| java19 | 19 | Ubuntu | Hotspot | amd64,arm64,armv7 |
For example, to use Java version 8 on any supported architecture:
docker run --name mc itzg/minecraft-server:java8-multiarch
!!! note
Keep in mind that some versions of Minecraft server, such as Forge before 1.17, can't work on the newest versions of Java. Instead, one of the Java 8 images should be used. Also, FORGE doesn't support openj9 JVM implementation.
Some versions of vanilla Minecraft, such as 1.10, also do not run correctly with Java 17. If in doubt, use `java8-multiarch` for any version less than 1.17.
