---------------------------------------
Summary: Race condition in installer: cached artifacts might be
made unavailable
Key: SLING-5591
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SLING-5591
Project: Sling
Issue Type: Bug
Components: Installer
Reporter: Carsten Ziegeler
Assignee: Carsten Ziegeler
Fix For: Installer Core 3.6.8
If a provider is reporting new artifacts and these artifacts need to be copied
into the local storage (like JCR artifacts), there is a slight change that
while the OSGi installer is processing the new artifacts, the same provider is
updating the artifacts which then results in a null stored in the internal data
objects for the file, although it is still available. The artifact can't be
installed anymore as the file is not available.
This is due to the logic in FileDataStore#createNewDataFile which returns null
if the file is already cached.
