"Cannot clear data directory" in SoftIndexFileStore when clear() is called after stopping and restarting cache -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Key: ISPN-5596 URL: https://issues.jboss.org/browse/ISPN-5596 Project: Infinispan Issue Type: Bug Components: Loaders and Stores Affects Versions: 7.2.3.Final Environment: Windows 7 Reporter: Andreas Pabst Assignee: Radim Vansa When stopping and restarting a cache with SoftIndexFileStore persistence, it behaves strangely. Calling cache.clear() leads to the following exception: ERROR: ISPN000136: Execution error org.infinispan.persistence.spi.PersistenceException: Cannot clear data directory! at org.infinispan.persistence.sifs.SoftIndexFileStore.clear(SoftIndexFileStore.java:234) at org.infinispan.persistence.manager.PersistenceManagerImpl.clearAllStores(PersistenceManagerImpl.java:372) at org.infinispan.interceptors.CacheWriterInterceptor.visitClearCommand(CacheWriterInterceptor.java:158) ... Caused by: java.io.IOException: Cannot delete file soft-index-test\data\2 at org.infinispan.persistence.sifs.FileProvider.clear(FileProvider.java:205) at org.infinispan.persistence.sifs.SoftIndexFileStore.clear(SoftIndexFileStore.java:232) If the manager is also stopped and recreated every time, this only happens after the third iteration. Calling cache.remove() in the same place leads to an unrecoverable corruption of the cache store files: java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: Negative position
