Description

We're using Liferay which uses Lucene behind the screens to index things like documents, web content, users, etc... . When we trigger a full reindex via the Liferay Control Panel, which uses IndexWriter.deleteAll(), the JVM crashes and generates a dump with the following message:

#

1. A fatal error has been detected by the Java Runtime Environment:
   #
2. SIGSEGV (0xb) at pc=0xffffffff78de94a8, pid=18938, tid=2478
