Darius Cooper commented on IO-721:
----------------------------------
Looking at the diff between 2.7 and 2.8.0
This code: destDir.setLastModified(srcDir.lastModified());
was replaced by
{code:java}
private static void setLastModified(final File sourceFile, final File
targetFile) throws IOException {
if (!targetFile.setLastModified(sourceFile.lastModified())) {
throw new IOException("Failed setLastModified on " + sourceFile);
}
}{code}
thus throwing an IOException in a situation where it previously did not.
There are comments in the code that show this was intentional.
It seems that the work-around (which would work in both 2.7 and 2.8.0) is to
call the overriddedn copyDirectory() method, and explicitly pass
pass
{noformat}
preserveFileDate=false{noformat}

> Java 11 (from Ubuntu packages)
> Reporter: Dirk Heinrichs
> Priority: Major

> FileUtils.copyDirectory(source, dest, glob) {code}
> works fine when using Commons-IO 2.7, but fails with
