BitBucket Server installer fails to run with java.lang.StackOverflowError for non-root users

[Denis Koryavov]

Env:
RHEL 7.6 with latest updates
java version "1.8.0_202"

When I trying to run BitBucket Server installer as non-root user, I get the next error:

$ ./atlassian-bitbucket-6.1.2-x64.bin -c
Starting Installer ...

I have the same error even if I trying to run installer as user with unlimited sudo privileges.
The issue ocuurs only in RHEL 7.5+, on Ubuntu 18.04 the same installer works perfectly.

Is there a way to run installer on RHEL as non-root user?

The root of the problem found: on my RHEL server I had custom LD_LIBRARY_PATH. After removing this custom variable everything works fine. 

The question can be removed.
