Is the Java virtual machine up and running when the error occurs?
I mean, does the JVM fail to start or does it terminate after some time
of operation, returning the exit code?

Are there any output, stacktraces, core files etc?

Please give more relevant information!

A Java program can return an arbitraty return code to the operating
system by calling the System.exit(int) method.

If that is what happens, you will have to ask the application programmer.
