RepositoryCopier has problems with multi-valued properties
----------------------------------------------------------

                 Key: JCR-2678
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/JCR-2678
             Project: Jackrabbit Content Repository
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: jackrabbit-core
    Affects Versions: 1.6.2
         Environment: Jackrabbit 1.6.2
            Reporter: Sascha Theves
            Priority: Blocker
             Fix For: 1.6.3


When using the RepositoryCopier to backup and restore your repository you run 
into problems with multi-valued properties where you have only one value 
assigned.

The backup works fine but when you try to restore the backup and want to get 
the values of a multi-valued property you get:

java.lang.RuntimeException: property /ns:someNode/ns:multiValued is a 
single-valued property, so it's value can not be retrieved as an array
        at 
org.apache.jackrabbit.core.PropertyImpl.internalGetValues(PropertyImpl.java:441)
        at 
org.apache.jackrabbit.core.PropertyImpl.getValues(PropertyImpl.java:475)
        at xxx.MyClass.getProperty(MyClass.java:274)

You can reproduce that by using the RepositoryCopier to copy your repository 
and then read it back again. You must have a node with a multi-valued property 
in it where you have only _one_ value contained in the property to the time the 
backup is created.

The node type definition looks like:

// The namespace declaration
<ns='http://noPlaceLikeHome/'>
<nt='http://www.jcp.org/jcr/nt/1.0'>

// Node type name
[ns:myNodeType]

- ns:multiValued (string)
multiple
