When update a parameter in Jenkisn, error would be:Execution default-test of goal org.apache.maven.plugins:maven-surefire-plugin:2.18.1:test failed: There was an error in the forked process

It's very strange. We have link Jenkins with Jazz Server(RTC) so that the latest code can be reached. And build toolkit also configured.
When I run the job with parameter "PostalErrorMsgValidation.xml", it build success. But when I change it to "maventest.xml", it alway failed with the following error. I don't know why was that, just change a parameter.

But it can be success in the command window with the command: mvn test -DsuiteXmlFile=src/com/ibm/testautomation/TestPlan/maventest.xml -Djenkins_env=DST2_LIVE -Djenkins_productType=WATSON_ANALYTICS -Djenkins_locale=en_US -Djenkins_browser=firefox
