Claus Ibsen commented on CAMEL-4474:
------------------------------------
That dot thingy is a left over from the 1.x days as you could configure a
fileName and/or a directory. In 2.x it must be a starting directory. And you
can use the new fileName option to pin point a specific file.
David there is something wrong with your system as we use the File API to check
if its a directory first
{code}
boolean isDirectory = file.isDirectory();
if (!isDirectory && file.getName().contains(".")) {
throw new IllegalArgumentException("Only directory is supported.
Endpoint must be configured with a valid starting directory: " + file);
}
{code}
So what OS and file system are you using?

> Key: CAMEL-4474
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CAMEL-4474
> Project: Camel
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: camel-core
> Affects Versions: 2.8.1
> Environment: java 1.6
> Reporter: David J. M. Karlsen
> Labels: component, consumer, file
> Attachments: Camel4474.java, app-config-context.xml,
> app-config.properties, test-context.xml
>
>
> According to http://camel.apache.org/file2.html autoCreate is true by default
> and should for a consumer create the directory.
> {noformat}
> autoCreate true Automatically create missing directories in the file's
> pathname. For the file consumer, that means creating the starting directory.
> For the file producer, it means the directory the files should be written to.
> {noformat}
> This does not happen and thus a route startup would fail.
