2025-12-08 Tomcat 10.1.50 Released
The Apache Tomcat Project is proud to announce the release of version 10.1.50 of Apache Tomcat. This release implements specifications that are part of the Jakarta EE 10 platform.
Applications that run on Tomcat 9 and earlier will not run on Tomcat 10
without changes. Java EE based applications designed for Tomcat 9 and earlier
may be placed in the $CATALINA_BASE/webapps-javaee directory and
Tomcat will automatically convert them to Jakarta EE and copy them to the
webapps directory. This conversion is performed using the
Apache Tomcat
migration tool for Jakarta EE tool which is also available as a separate
download for off-line use.
The notable changes in this release are:
- Add strictSni attribute on the Connector to allow matching the SSLHostConfig configuration associated with the SNI host name to the SSLHostConfig configuration matched from the HTTP protocol host name. Non matching configurations will cause the request to be rejected. The attribute default value is true, enabling the matching.
- Correct a regression introduced in 9.0.109 that broke some clustering configurations.
- Fix manager status output for applications which failed to start, and add deployment state for all applications.
- Fix returning connections to jdbc-pool when the underlying connection has already been closed.
Full details of these changes, and all the other changes, are available in the Tomcat 10.1 changelog.
