Expected Result
Synchrony should start properly without checking mount point permission. Before Confluence 7.1.x , the issue is not reproducible. If the mount has noexec, Synchrony is getting started without any problem.
Actual Result
User is unable to start the Synchrony and getting below error with Confluence version 7.x.x

Workaround
Confluence Bug for the same issue:
CONFSERVER-59815 - Getting issue details... STATUS
There are 3 workarounds to fix this issue,
Remount /home as exec permission with the following command:
$ mount -o remount,exec /home- Transfer Confluence Home directory to another File system that has exec permission.
- Or, change the JNA temp dir with the following system property:
-Djna.tmpdir=<path>
