Issue with NiFi 2.0.0-M4: crypto.randomUUID is not a function Error

[#1]

I recently downloaded the latest version of NiFi (nifi-2.0.0-M4) and installed it by placing the folder in /opt/nifi-2.0.0-M4. The only modifications I made were in the nifi-env.sh and nifi.properties files as follows:

nifi-env.sh

export JAVA_HOME=/usr/lib/jvm/java-21-openjdk-amd64

nifi.properties

# Site to Site properties
nifi.remote.input.host=10.37.10.199
nifi.remote.input.secure=false
nifi.remote.input.socket.port=10000
nifi.remote.input.http.enabled=true
nifi.remote.input.http.transaction.ttl=60 sec
nifi.remote.contents.cache.expiration=60 secs

# web properties #

# For security, NiFi will present the UI on 127.0.0.1 and only be accessible through this loopback interface.
# Be aware that changing these properties may affect how your instance can be accessed without any restriction.
# We recommend configuring HTTPS instead. The administrators guide provides instructions on how to do this.

nifi.web.http.host= 0.0.0.0 # Here goes the IP of my virtual machine in Ubuntu
nifi.web.http.port=8443
nifi.web.http.network.interface.default=

#############################################

nifi.web.https.host=
nifi.web.https.port=

When I run ./nifi.sh start, the server starts correctly and there are no errors in the console. However, when I open the URL in the browser, the page remains blank and the following error appears in the browser console:

TypeError: crypto.randomUUID is not a function

Additional Information:

• Operating System: Ubuntu
• Java Version: OpenJDK 21
• NiFi Version: 2.0.0-M4

Has anyone else encountered this issue or can provide guidance on how to resolve it? Any help would be greatly appreciated!
