I am trying to run apache ranger2.5.0 docker image built with jdk11 on kubernetes. Ranger process starts but the REST endpoint initialization fails with below logs in cataline.out

Searching other similar issues I found that Jersey version supported for jdk11 starts from >2.29 but apache ranger 2.5.0 has 1.19.4 (pom.xml).
Steps followed.
- mvn package with ranger-jdk11, all profile and built a docker image with jdk11 and deployed the image in k8s. got the above error
- Updated the Pom.xml for 2.29 version for other jersey artifacts but this forces other changes in ranger code base as the import changes and also the method signature
What am I missing here? I am sure other people are using ranger with >jdk11 - how is this issue handled or if I am doing something wrong?
