"unable to install test security manager" when using ESTestCase

Elastic Stack Elasticsearch

I am testing my code using ESTestCase. When running the test I get the following error:

java.lang.RuntimeException: unable to install test security manager

Is this thread running under a class com.carrotsearch.randomizedtesting.RandomizedRunner runner context? Add @RunWith(class com.carrotsearch.randomizedtesting.RandomizedRunner.class) to your test class. Make sure your code accesses random contexts within @BeforeClass and @AfterClass boundary (for example, static test class initializers are not permitted to access random contexts).

How are you running the test? A similar problem was fixed recently: https://github.com/elastic/elasticsearch/issues/33045

Thanks for your answer. I dont really get what was done in this github post. Which file did he edit?
I use junit in IntelliJ IDEA and for running it I use right Click "Run ...".

There is no edit to make. This will be fixed in 6.5.0. See this PR: https://github.com/elastic/elasticsearch/pull/33066

Is there any known workaround for 6.4.2 ?

Seeing the same thing in Red Hat JBoss Developer Studio Version: 11.3.0.GA.

Sorry @paulkeogh I don't know of any workarounds for 6.4.x.

@uwieuwe4, @paulkeogh:
A workaround is to disable the security manager during test by adding the following VM option

 -Dtests.security.manager=false

When running your tests with Maven, you can add the following to your pom.xml:

<build>
	<pluginManagement>
		<plugins>
			<plugin>
				<groupId>org.apache.maven.plugins</groupId>
				<artifactId>maven-surefire-plugin</artifactId>
				<configuration>
					<!-- for disabling security manager in tests -->
					<systemPropertyVariables>
						<tests.security.manager>false</tests.security.manager>
					</systemPropertyVariables>
				</configuration>
			</plugin>
		</plugins>
	</pluginManagement>
</build>
