I just upgraded an amd64 host from one snapshot (~20 April) to the latest (26 May).Upon rebooting, a rapid succession of the following error messages start to appear: /bsd: java(81240): mprotect W^X violation This is even after updating to the latest snapshot build of the JDK port (jdk-1.8.0.72v0). The only Java app running on this host is an older version of apache-solr, v 4.8.1, I believe. Would upgrading solr to a more recent version clear this up?We are working on some system features which will constrain W^X executables to specific mountpoints, and specifically linked executables (an ELF flag). In the newest snapshots, you can put ",wxallowed" as a flag in your /etc/fstab entry for /usr/local to get around this.
That worked a treat. Thanks!
