Is there there a installation documentation for this versions 5.0 ? In the current Doc, it still speaks apout Java 11
Same question for tomcat, is a newer version supported ? 10 or 11 ?

Hello Geoffrey

Due to the developers’ current high workload, the installation documentation is not yet available.

For RS version 5.0, you need Java version 21 and Tomcat 9.

Best regards,

Hello yplam.

You can find the upgrade documentation here: https://reportserver.net/de/dokumentation

Please note that you cannot jump directly from RS version 3.0.2 to 5.0. To upgrade to RS version 5.0, you need RS version 4.0. Please be aware of the breaking changes when upgrading.

RS version 5.0 no longer supports MySQL 5. https://reportserver.net/releasenotes/RS5.0.0.html
There is no MySQL manual, but you can use the Oracle manual as a guide.

Best regards
