      ADDITIONAL OS VERSION INFORMATION :
      # uname -a
      Linux graylog 4.4.0-93-generic #116~14.04.1-Ubuntu SMP Mon Aug 14 16:07:05 UTC 2017 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux

      A DESCRIPTION OF THE PROBLEM :
      The Server JRE is missing two modules that are quite common for server applications:
      - java.corba
      - java.se.ee

      The modules are included in the regular Oracle JRE, JDK and OpenJDK

      REGRESSION. Last worked in version 8u144

      STEPS TO FOLLOW TO REPRODUCE THE PROBLEM :
      Run java --list-modules

      EXPECTED VERSUS ACTUAL BEHAVIOR :
      EXPECTED -
      Expect the list to contain
      - java.corba@9
      - java.se.ee@9

      ACTUAL -
      Both modules are not listed in the Server JRE. They are listen for the JRE and JDK

      REPRODUCIBILITY :
      This bug can be reproduced always.

      CUSTOMER SUBMITTED WORKAROUND :
      Switch from Server JRE to JRE. This increases the disk footprint and attack vectors on servers.
