      When attempting to run the Minecraft server jar with a Java executable compiled with the OpenJ9 VM, it fails to load and instead prints a stack trace:

       

      Exception in thread "main" java.lang.BootstrapMethodError: java.lang.ExceptionInInitializerError

      Steps to replicate:

      1: Download an OpenJ9 build from https://adoptopenjdk.net

      2: Run the server jar in the command line with any arguments

       

      Expected behavior:

      The Minecraft server properly loads.

       

      This occurred on 1.16.2 Pre-release 2 as well, and did not seem to occur on pre-release 1. I am able to replicate this on both Windows and Linux operating systems.
