Niraj Tolia commented on SUREFIRE-843:
--------------------------------------
Sneha: Try these steps to narrow down your problem:
1. Configure surefire to fork unit tests and then run mvn -X test.
2. Grab the surefire startup line from the debug output (should start with
/bin/bash).
3. Execute that command directly and when it fails, run 'echo $?' to get the
status.
4. Then grep all your code or any external code that might be calling
System.exit() with that status.

> Key: SUREFIRE-843
> URL: https://jira.codehaus.org/browse/SUREFIRE-843
> Project: Maven Surefire
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: Maven Surefire Plugin
> Affects Versions: 2.12
> Environment: Mac OS X
> java version "1.7.0_04-ea"
> Java(TM) SE Runtime Environment (build 1.7.0_04-ea-b12)
> Java HotSpot(TM) 64-Bit Server VM (build 23.0-b15, mixed mode)
> Reporter: Niraj Tolia
>
> I am trying to run mvn test and it always fails at some arbitrary time with
> the message 'Error occurred in starting fork'. See the output below. Note
> that it does not execute all tests but fails in between the test run. The
> number of tests surefire finishes executing is random but it has never
> completed the entire test run. I am using Java7u4 Build b13 with Maven 3.0.3
> and surefire v2.12.
> Any clue what might be going wrong? This is a blocker for me.
