             Summary: Solr (or build system) should hardcode "jdk.lang.Process.launchMechanism" to work arround jdk bug#8047340
                 Key: SOLR-6387
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SOLR-6387
             Project: Solr
          Issue Type: Improvement
            Reporter: Hoss Man


Jenkin's tests occasionally fail with the following cryptic error...

{noformat}
java.lang.Error: posix_spawn is not a supported process launch mechanism on this platform.

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...

We should consider hardcoding the "jdk.lang.Process.launchMechanism" sys property mentioned as a workarround in the jdk bug report
