<div>Dear All,</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>We are aware that the new Java 8 update* has blocked essential OMERO workflows; once you upgrade, all OMERO clients except OMERO.web cannot connect to an OMERO.server, regardless of the Java version of the server (as reported on
<a href="https://www.openmicroscopy.org/community/viewtopic.php?f=5&t=7856">https://www.openmicroscopy.org/community/viewtopic.php?f=5&t=7856</a>). </div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>This affects both the 5.1.x and the 5.0.x releases of OMERO. </div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>We are working to get this fixed as soon as possible. </div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>Regards,</div>
