we're currently testing/running the official container images (6.11, Payara 7.2026.2). Our IT security is flagging the Payara cauz it's a bit older/outdated. Is it possible/safe to upgrade Payara alone. Or is there a timeline for a Payara bump in the next Dataverse release and if so then when exactly ?
Thank you :)
Best,
Oussama.

Philip Durbin 🚀 (Jul 08 2026 at 13:23):Hi! Since you're running containers, I moved this to #containers.
Philip Durbin 🚀 (Jul 08 2026 at 13:24):Jim Myers has a pull request at #12498 to upgrade to Payara 7.2026.6. Please not that this is not just a simple version bump. It involves a few code changes and some library upgrades.
Since your security team is flagging it, it sounds important! I just added the 6.12 milestone, at least.
Philip Durbin 🚀 (Jul 08 2026 at 13:24):You should be able to build your own base image. And your own app image on top of it.
For example: https://guides.dataverse.org/en/6.11/container/base-image.html#build-instructions
Oussama Zoubia (UKK) (Jul 09 2026 at 07:30):Thanks Philip,
I was able to build and apply the payara update to a new image. currently without any issues.
thought just to confirm would this cauz any incompatibility issues that I am now using this version ?
thanks in advance.
Philip Durbin 🚀 (Jul 09 2026 at 10:52):Well, if you're using Payara 7.2026.6 you might want to read through the proposed changes in #12498. Is that the version you're using? Did you have to make those changes?
Oussama Zoubia (UKK) (Jul 09 2026 at 11:00):Yes, I'm using payara 7.2026.6.
I didn't do any code changes.
basically, I built the plain v6.11 tag and only set -Dpayara.version=7.2026.6 for the base image.
Philip Durbin 🚀 (Jul 09 2026 at 11:16):Here's what I'd suggest. Ask qqmyers in that pull request if he knows of anyone running that version of Payara in production. He's often ahead of the curve, an early adopter. It might be working fine for him. However, you might want to mention you haven't made any changes apart from bumping the version. You can link him to this topic in Zulip, of course.
