[jira] [Commented] (SOLR-6387) Solr (or build system) should hardcode "jdk.lang.Process.launchMechanism" to work arround jdk bug#8047340

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SOLR-6387?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=14100058#comment-14100058 ] 

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

the JDK bug report is about Java 8, so does this affect Java 7, too?. In addition, what happens on Windows?

> A commonality of most of these failures is that the turkish locale has been randomly selected, and apparently the Runtime.exec is busted whtn you use turkish...
