 When I installed IdP 2.3.8, it also asks for JAVA, which version should I use?  I used JDK that downloaded from Sun site. My Idp did not start, but it did not give me any error logs eitherfrom tomcat or IdP itself.
That's not because of Java. If there are no logs, then you have a container problem.
JDK 7 is supported but there is at least one bug that will be corrected with 2.4 once it's done. It does not prevent startup or any routine functions.
