Environment

  • jruby 9.1.5.0 (2.3.1) 2016-09-07 036ce39 Java HotSpot(TM) 64-Bit Server VM 24.65-b04 on 1.7.0_67-b01 +jit [darwin-x86_64]
  • Darwin 16.1.0 Darwin Kernel Version 16.1.0: Wed Oct 19 20:31:56 PDT 2016; root:xnu-3789.21.4~4/RELEASE_X86_64 x86_64

There's nothing special (gems or whatsoever) running on this machine.

Expected Behavior

When running this snippet of code:

system "exit 0"
puts "ruby_success=#{$?.success?} exit_code=#{$?.exitstatus}"

MRI (2.3.1) outputs
ruby_success=true exit_code=0

Actual Behavior

Unfortunately this is the output I'm getting under the JRuby version mentioned above:

ruby_success=false exit_code=127

I don't know if this is expected as per JRuby system's implementation, sorry if that's the case!
Thanks,

Same on 9.1.6.0.

$ rvm jruby-9.1.6.0 do ruby -e 'system "exit 0"; puts "ruby_success=#{$?.success?} exit_code=#{$?.exitstatus}"'
ruby_success=false exit_code=127

Looks like we're not doing the right masking of the exit status.

Ok, so here's the problem. We do the correct masking; however in this case the system call is actually failing. It tries to find an executable exit command, and seeing none it bails out with exit code of 127. MRI must be doing some extra logic here to know it needs to run with sh -c.
