This seems to happen in a combination of ivy Engine 6.0.4 or 6.0.5 and a client JRE with Java 1.8 update 121 installed.
At the moment there are two possible solutions:
- Don't upgrade the clients to Java 1.8 update 121. (wait for a later version)
- Upgrade ivy Engine to 6.0.6.
**[Update]** We don't know yet filled a bug report with Oracle and they confirmed it's a regression in the cause of this problem (Might be a JRE Bug).current JRE: [Bug Report][1]. **[/Update]**
If your version is lower (e.g. 6.0.3) you seem not affected.
Other Versions (not complete):
- 6.4.0: not affected
- 6.3.0: not affected
- 5.1.x: no affected versions found
- 5.0.x: 5.0.21 works
- 4.3.x: 4.3.26 works (4.3.19 [has been reported to be affected][1])affected][2])
Currently we are not aware of other affected ivy versions. Please leave a comment if other versions are affected.
