Pupperserver with Adopt-OpenJDK

We are in transition from Puppetmaster 3.8 to Puppet server(OpenSource) 5.3. As a prerequisite for Puppetserver 5.3 installation requires Java 8 runtime packages. Can we install Adopt-OpenJDK with Pupperserver 5.3?

Thanks John.Adding one more point here puppetserver has a dependency on openjdk-8-jre-headless:amd64.But adopt open jdk is not providing headless package.So we suspect this may cause issue as puppetserver will look for the headless package.

Puppetserver runs just fine on OpenJDK, but I strongly recommend that you run the server on an officially-supported platform (RHEL, CentOS, Debian, Ubuntu, or SLES), and use one of Puppet, Inc.'s official packages for that system. These each express a dependency on an appropriate Java 8 package, and they will configure Puppet properly to work in conjunction with that implementation. On the platforms for which I have knowledge of the details, it is the distro's OpenJDK build that is used.

It should be possible to [re]configure Puppetserver to use an Adopt-OpenJDK implementation of the Java 8 runtime, but this is swimming upstream.
