JDK 8 random crashes on linux

I experience random crashes using JDK 8_20 64bit for linux. It's the same with Netbeans, IDEA and Eclipse or hello world programs. It's the same with JDK 8_25 64bit. Anyone? Problematic frame is always the same.

A fatal error has been detected by the Java Runtime Environment:

 SIGSEGV (0xb) at pc=0x00007f267b005060, pid=28116, tid=139803312420608

JRE version: Java(TM) SE Runtime Environment (8.0_20-b26) (build 1.8.0_20-b26)
Java VM: Java HotSpot(TM) 64-Bit Server VM (25.20-b23 mixed mode linux-amd64 compressed oops)
Problematic frame:
C  0x00007f267b005060

Failed to write core dump. Core dumps have been disabled. To enable core dumping, try "ulimit -c unlimited" before starting Java again

With such a wide spectrum of things crashing, I suspect that it is something systemic with your Java installation. Maybe you installed from a corrupted installer (or whatever), or maybe the installation has been "messed with".

And if it isn't that, then the next place to look is either:

  • some JVM bug that is particular to your platform (e.g. OS, window manager, video device, etc), or

  • hardware errors (!).

The best thing I can suggest is that you enable core dumping (per the instructions), and see what you get. This page may help you diagnose the dump ... as may Googling.

And if you have a support contract, call Oracle for help.
