Description

Solr: 6.3
OS: Solaris
JAVA: 1.8.0_111
Hardware: Oracle Super Cluster

When i start Solr, I get a message that does not allow Solr to startup, See cmd output below
P.S: I am BRAND new to Solr. I installed and actually played with the previous version on exactly the same environment and had no issues

root@XXXXXXXXXXX:/u02/solr# java -version
java version "1.8.0_111"
Java(TM) SE Runtime Environment (build 1.8.0_111-b14)
Java HotSpot(TM) 64-Bit Server VM (build 25.111-b14, mixed mode)
root@XXXXXXXXXXX:/u02/solr# echo $JAVA_HOME
/u03/software/jdk1.8.0_111
root@XXXXXXXXXXX:/u02/solr# echo $PATH
/u03/software/jdk1.8.0_111/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin
root@XXXXXXXXXXX:/u02/solr# bin/solr start
awk: can't open /version/

{print $2}

Your current version of Java is too old to run this version of Solr
We found version , using command '/u03/software/jdk1.8.0_111/bin/java'
Please install latest version of Java 8 or set JAVA_HOME properly.

Debug information:
JAVA_HOME: /u03/software/jdk1.8.0_111
Active Path:
/u03/software/jdk1.8.0_111/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin
