@lcs226 I don't think this is an issue with 8.3, I remember having a similar issue due to java 11 support being dropped around the version you were upgrading from, I thought it was from 8.1.33 though. you need to make sure java 17 or above is installed on the device using the legacy client launcher and add arguments from this post [Linux java 17 opens and exports](https://forum.inductiveautomation.com/t/linux-java-17-opens-and-exports/83546) the legacy launcher .sh
