[jboss-jira] [JBoss JIRA] (JGRP-1483) When Util.createServerSocket has an error, the root exception is swallowed

When Util.createServerSocket has an error, the root exception is swallowed -------------------------------------------------------------------------- Key: JGRP-1483 URL: https://issues.jboss.org/browse/JGRP-1483 Project: JGroups Issue Type: Bug Affects Versions: 2.6.20 Reporter: Dennis Reed Assignee: Dennis Reed Fix For: 2.6.21 When an IOException is caught inside Util.createServerSocket, the root cause is swallowed. (This was introduced in JGRP-892 which changed it to throw an exception instead of returning null and causing a NullPointerException later).
