-------------------------------
Summary: false error message when reusing a cache directory
Key: JCS-163
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/JCS-163
Project: Commons JCS
Issue Type: Bug
Components: Indexed Disk Cache, JDBC Disk Cache
Affects Versions: jcs-2.0-beta-1
Reporter: Mark Fulton
JCS logs an {{ERROR}} if the disk cache directory already existed:
{noformat}
63 [main] ERROR
org.apache.commons.jcs.auxiliary.disk.AbstractDiskCacheAttributes - Failed to
create directory C:\MyCache
{noformat}
This is because
[{{AbstractDiskCacheAttributes.setDiskPath(File)}}|http://commons.apache.org/proper/commons-jcs/commons-jcs-core/apidocs/org/apache/commons/jcs/auxiliary/disk/AbstractDiskCacheAttributes.html#setDiskPath(java.io.File)]
[uses|http://commons.apache.org/proper/commons-jcs/commons-jcs-core/xref/org/apache/commons/jcs/auxiliary/disk/AbstractDiskCacheAttributes.html#L80]
the result of
[{{File.mkdirs()}}|http://docs.oracle.com/javase/6/docs/api/java/io/File.html#mkdirs()]
as if it returns {{true}} if the directories exist after invocation but this
is not the case, it only returns "{{true}} if and only if the directory was
created, along with all necessary parent directories; {{false}} otherwise."
[{{File.exists()}}|http://docs.oracle.com/javase/6/docs/api/java/io/File.html#exists()]
(or similar) should be used instead to trigger logging an {{ERROR}} or not.
