PhixFlow Help

Install Java

  1. Install the latest version of Java 8.
    We recommend Adopt Open JDK, which you can download from https://adoptopenjdk.net/. Select the options:
    • OpenJDK 8
    • HotSpot.
  2. If necessary, update the security settings to allow strong encryption and decryption of files.
  3. For Java 1.8.0_151 and later, set the crypto.policy to unlimited for the JRE used by PhixFlow. To do this, go to the JRE directory /lib/security/java.security file.
    The crypto.policy line is commented out.

    # crypto.policy=unlimited

    Delete the #" to uncomment the line:

    crypto.policy=unlimited
  4. Set the JAVA_HOME or JRE_HOME environment variable.

We strongly recommend that you use the latest version of Java.

For versions before Java 1.8.0_151, you must install the JCE Unlimited Strength Jurisdiction Policy files.
