Pull request overview

Adjusts how forked PipesServer JVM processes are launched so that they inherit the parent JVM’s current working directory (CWD), preserving relative-path resolution in Tika configs while still capturing native crash logs for diagnostics.

Changes:

  • Stop setting ProcessBuilder.directory(tmpDir) for shared/per-client forked server processes so the child inherits the parent CWD (fixing relative-path behavior).
  • Auto-inject -XX:ErrorFile=<tmpDir>/hs_err_pid%p.log (unless already provided) so hs_err crash logs land in the temp directory used by ServerProcessIO.surfaceCrashDiagnostics().

tika-pipes/tika-pipes-core/src/main/java/org/apache/tika/pipes/core/SharedServerManager.java Keep child process CWD inherited from parent; redirect hs_err crash logs into tmpDir via -XX:ErrorFile.
tika-pipes/tika-pipes-core/src/main/java/org/apache/tika/pipes/core/PerClientServerManager.java Same CWD inheritance change for per-client server forks; add -XX:ErrorFile injection for crash-log collection.
