Java version error on Solaris
Product Name
CIS-CAT Pro Assessor v4
Product Version

Problem
We are getting a Java Error when trying to run a local CIS-CAT assessment scan on a Solaris Server.
Error: "The version of Java you are attempting to use is not compatible with CISCAT"
The java version is;
Java Version: Java(TM) SE Runtime Environment (build 1.8.0_231-b11)
Solution
We have seen this issue with Solaris and have a workaround to allow the CIS-CAT assessment to complete;
Edit Assessor-CLI.sh
Comment out the lines listed below;
if [ $? -eq "1" ]; then
echo "Error: The version of Java you are attempting to use is not compatible with CISCAT:"
echo ""
echo $JAVA_VERSION_RAW
echo ""
echo "You must use Java 1.8.x, or higher. The most recent version of Java is recommended."
exit 1;
fi
3. You should be able to run Assessor-CLI.sh with no error.
Note that this is a workaround and should only be used for supported versions of Java. Please see the CIS-CAT v4 documentation for the current supported versions of Java
