Hey [~doaks80]
I'm encountering almost same issue (same nifi version, similar symptoms, except
it seems like all future files also do not get picked up). Did you figure out a
potential work around?

> Key: NIFI-3332
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/NIFI-3332
> Project: Apache NiFi
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: Core Framework
>Affects Versions: 0.7.1, 1.1.1
>Reporter: Joe Skora
>Assignee: Koji Kawamura
>Priority: Critical
> Fix For: 1.4.0
>
> Attachments: Test-showing-ListFile-timestamp-bug.log,
> Test-showing-ListFile-timestamp-bug.patch, listfiles.png

>
> The new state implementation for the ListXXX processors based on
> AbstractListProcessor creates a race conditions when processor runs occur
> while a batch of files is being written with the same timestamp.
> The changes to state management dropped tracking of the files processed for a
> given timestamp. Without the record of files processed, the remainder of the
> batch is ignored on the next processor run since their timestamp is not
> greater than the one timestamp stored in processor state. With the file
> tracking it was possible to process files that matched the timestamp exactly
> and exclude the previously processed files.
> A basic time goes as follows.
> T0 - system creates or receives batch of files with Tx timestamp where Tx
> is more than the current timestamp in processor state.
> T1 - system writes 1st half of Tx batch to the ListFile source directory.
> T2 - ListFile runs picking up 1st half of Tx batch and stores Tx timestamp
> in processor state.
> T3 - system writes 2nd half of Tx batch to ListFile source directory.
> T4 - ListFile runs ignoring any files with T <= Tx, eliminating 2nd half Tx
> timestamp batch.
> I've attached a patch[1] for TestListFile.java that adds an instrumented unit
> test demonstrates the problem and a log[2] of the output from one such run.
> The test writes 3 files each in two batches with processor runs after each
> batch. Batch 2 writes files with timestamps older than, equal to, and newer
> than the timestamp stored when batch 1 was processed, but only the newer file
> is picked up. The older file is correctly ignored but file with the matchin
> timestamp file should have been processed.
