Jean-Baptiste Onofré commented on KARAF-4156:
---------------------------------------------
I think the same behaviour happens on master (Karaf 4.x). Maybe changing in the
main to check the start mode (client, status, etc) would be more reliable. Let
me try something there.
> [karaf-3.0.x] set 'karaf.clean.all' as true will cause data folder cleaned
> while checking status

> Key: KARAF-4156
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/KARAF-4156
> Project: Karaf
> Issue Type: Bug
> Affects Versions: 3.0.5
> Environment: Running on Mac OS X 10.11
> Reporter: Jerry Meng
> Assignee: Jean-Baptiste Onofré
> Priority: Critical
> Fix For: 3.0.6
>
>
> Scenario
> =======
> In etc/system.properties, it describes
> \# Deletes the entire karaf.data directory at every start
> karaf.clean.all = false
> When I set the property as true, I expect it will clean data folder ONLY at
> karaf start; however it also causes the command 'stop' and 'status' to delete
> data folder so that the command complains "shutdown port file doesn't exist.
> The container is not running."
> Root Cause
> =========
> The class 'org.apache.karaf.main.ConfigProperties' checks the property
> 'karaf.clean.all' in the constructor and deletes the data folder if it's set
> as true.
> In 'org.apache.karaf.main.Stop' and 'org.apache.karaf.main.Status', they
> will instantiate ConfigProperties at the very beginning. They will never get
> port file correctly in this case and even cause working directory being
> deleted.
> It seams that to delete data folder in the constructor of ConfigProperties
> does not make sense to me.
