WebObjects compatibility guide

The tables below list which operating systems, Web servers, databases, and other third-party software have been tested for compatibility with WebObjects. All databases in the tables below have been qualified unless otherwise noted. A database listed as "unqualified" has been previously qualified and has a JDBC plugin, but is not tested as regularly as a qualified database. An effort will be made to resolve compatibility issues with a supported database whether qualified or unqualified.

Note: For minor "dot release" versions (such as 5.2.1) please refer to the Release Notes provided with the update.
