title: WebSphere Application Server 6.1 support for Java 1.6?
body: <p>Can I use Java 1.6 with WebSphere Application Server 6.1? IBM's website says <a href="http://publib.boulder.ibm.com/infocenter/wasinfo/v7r0/index.jsp?topic=/com.ibm.websphere.base.doc/info/aes/ae/rovr_specs.html" rel="noreferrer">no</a>. </p>
  
  <p>But I require Java 1.6 for a software application to be deployed and I cannot currently upgrade to Websphere 7.0, or use a different application server (WAS 6.1 is the org standard).</p>
  
  <p>what are my options?</p>
  
  <p>Thanks.</p>
