Hello @HTHou👋, Thank you for reporting this issue. We will investigate it and get back to you as soon as we have some feedback.

I think this issue is similar to https://github.com/actions/setup-java/issues/700.

Oracle changed the license after 17.0.13. https://www.oracle.com/java/technologies/javase/jdk17-0-13-later-archive-downloads.html

Hi @HTHou!

Just a heads up for anyone using the Oracle distribution with actions/setup-java:

• Oracle JDK 17 releases up to (and including) 17.0.12 are provided under the Oracle No-Fee Terms and Conditions (NFTC) license, which generally permits free commercial and production use.

• Beginning with 17.0.13 and later, Oracle JDK 17 builds are only available under the Oracle Technology Network (OTN) License for Java SE. This license is more restrictive and typically requires a paid subscription for most commercial or production uses.

Recommendation: Pin to an Oracle JDK 17 version ≤ 17.0.12 for now
