[ https://issues.jboss.org/browse/WFCORE-2562?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugi... ] Dennis Reed updated WFCORE-2562: -------------------------------- Description: org.jboss.as.controller.persistence.ConfigurationFile#deleteRecursively is missing error checking.

This method is used while removing old configuration history directories during boot, and the NullPointerException causes the EAP boot to abort. was: org.jboss.as.controller.persistence.ConfigurationFile#deleteRecursively is missing error checking.
