I tried that one. I have a debian test system, and downloaded the x64 Debian package from https://download.oracle.com/java/17/latest/jdk-17_linux-x64_bin.deb . Used dpkg to install, and it made a dir at /usr/lib/jvm/jdk-17-oracle-x64/ . However, providing this path to the DB-connect app still failed to reset the task server. Then I tried using "apt install default-jre". It created the folder "/usr/lib/jvm/java-17-openjdk-amd64" along with links in the "/usr/lib/jvm/" directory. For some reason the splunk DB connect app would not accept "/usr/lib/jvm/java-17-openjdk-amd64" (failed to reset task server), but it did accept "/usr/lib/jvm/java-1.17.0-openjdk-amd64/" and successfully restarted the task server. Unless you have a strong reason to use a specific JDK, I recommend trying different ones until you get one which works.
