Uwe Schindler commented on SOLR-6387:
-------------------------------------

I think, we should dig into OpenJDK source code to find out *why* why fails. To 
use a workaround, you have to understand, why the workaround is effective.

> Solr (or build system) should hardcode "jdk.lang.Process.launchMechanism" to 
> work arround jdk bug#8047340
