James Livingston created WFCORE-210: --------------------------------------- Summary: IO error during deployment scanning triggers undeployment Key: WFCORE-210 URL: https://issues.jboss.org/browse/WFCORE-210 Project: WildFly Core Issue Type: Bug Components: Server Affects Versions: 1.0.0.Alpha10 Reporter: James Livingston Assignee: Jason Greene If an IO error such as reaching the file descriptor limit occurs during deployment scanning, the scanner continues with an empty deployment list causing it to undeploy applications. This occurs because FileSystemDeploymentService.scanDirectory() treats File.listFiles() returning null as an empty list rather than an error. http://docs.oracle.com/javase/7/docs/api/java/io/File.html#listFiles%28%29 notes that it returns an empty array if the directory is empty, and null if it is not a directory or an IO error occurs. It should instead respond to a null return value by aborting the scanner run, with a log message, and not proceed to undeploy applications. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.3.1#6329)
