FileDataStore garbage collection can throw a NullPointerException if there is I/O problem -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Key: JCR-2969 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/JCR-2969 Project: Jackrabbit Content Repository Issue Type: Bug Reporter: Thomas Mueller Assignee: Thomas Mueller The FileDataStore can throw a NPE when doing garbage collection, if there is file I/O problem (for example an access rights problem). The reason is that it doesn't check if File.list / listFiles returns null.
