I am having this problem when trying to build my project with Jenkins: java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: Could not initialize class hudson.util.ProcessTree$UnixReflection.

I have tried to downgrade from JAVA JDK 1.8 to 1.7 but still not resolving the problem.
This is a JavaScript project, the test are passing but build failed because of that error.
Could you help me?
We fixed it by reducing jenkins stdout/stderr output. Just redirect called commands' output to files and try again.
It is just a workaround until Jenkins team fix it but it works pretty well for us.
