Thomas Neidhart commented on FILEUPLOAD-205:
--------------------------------------------
This is maybe related to this question at stackoverflow:
http://stackoverflow.com/questions/12301934/org-apache-commons-io-filecleaningtracker-does-not-delete-temp-files-unless-expl
It looks like in some environment, the DiskFileItem references are not gc'ed
and thus the FileCleaningTracker has still trackers attached, thus the Reaper
thread will not end after a call to exitWhenFinished (he is not finished yet).
