Hi,

Java 7.0-b147 is the original Java 7 GA release without any updates. You might 
remember  the bug, the Apache Lucene developers found in this version [1], 
causing e.g. SIGSEGV on startup of Apache Solr or corrupting indexes. I would 
strongly recommend to *not* use this version and update to 7u1 [2] or later! Of 
course without more details I cannot see if this is also the same bug, but in 
general the GA release is unuseable in production systems.
