Bertrand Delacretaz commented on SLING-8186:
--------------------------------------------
I have added an integration test [1] which demonstrates that the interaction
between @Delete and @MoveFrom has been like that for a long time indeed:
running that test against a Sling 8 jar with {{org.apache.sling.servlets.post}}
2.3.8 (released June 2015, way before Carsten's change mentioned above) gives
the same results.
I think we have an edge case that's not clearly documented, but I wouldn't be
comfortable removing the "delete node if property not found" behavior as that
wouldn't be backwards compatible.
We might clarify the documentation to indicate the having an @Delete parameter
pointing to the target path causes a deletion like in this example - if unsure,
users should refrain from using @Delete and @MoveFrom in the same request.
[~bupauli] what do you think?

> Moved nt:file node disappears when @Delte parameter is used in same request
> ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: SLING-8186
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SLING-8186
> Project: Sling
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: Servlets
> Affects Versions: Servlets Post 2.3.26
> Reporter: Burkhard Pauli
> Priority: Major
>
> If a file is moved to a new location with the @MoveFrom parameter and the
> request contains the @Delete parameter at the same time, the file is dropped
> and never saved to the new location.
> Step to reproduce the issue:
> # Create a node of type nt:file at the location {{/content/file}}
> # Execute the following curl command:
> {{curl -u admin:admin -F './test/title=Hello World' -F
> './test/file@MoveFrom=/content/file' -F './test@Delete=true'
> [http://localhost:4502/content]}}
> Observed behaviour:
> The file is not saved at the new location at {{/content/test/file}} and it
> is not available anymore at the old location {{/content/file}}
> Expected:
> The file is saved at the new location {{/content/test/file}} as long as
> other properties are saved when the request contains the delete operation
> (like the title property in the example above).
