I am using Camel 2.3.0 - I have a file endpoint that is configured with
delete=true and moveFailed=error. Yet when an error occurs, it does not
move it to a failed directory, and instead keeps re-trying the exchange.
Here is a route that shows my setup:
public void configure() throws Exception {
onException().process(myErrorProcessor).to("mock:error");
from("file://c:\\input?delete=true&moveFailed=error").process(someProcessor).unmarshal().xstream().to("mock:result")
}
The processor just does a simple transformation - however I am feeding it
invalid XML so that the unmarshal will fail. The error processor is
executed, but when it completes and sends its error message to "mock:error"
- the whole route starts again.
I removed the "delete=true" so it was just:
"file://c:\\input?moveFailed=error". Then when an error occurs, it moves
the file to error subdirectory. And the completed files go to ".camel".
I don't want to have to remove the completed files manually so I changed the
route to:
"file://c:\\input?delete=true"
Now - regardless of whether an exception occurs - the input file is deleted.
It seems to be that the combination of both "delete=true" and
"moveFailed=error" seems to cause the route to keep re-trying indefinately,
but on their own - they work exactly as advertised.
Is the delete=true supposed to only moved completed (successfully) files?
The documentation only says it will delete them after they are processed
(doesn't say if they succeeded or not).
I added a handled(true) on my exception route - and then it just deletes the
file and never moves it to the error folder.
I can remove the delete=true and my process will do what I want - however
then I have to make a manual step later to delete the contents of the .camel
folder for the ones that did work. And I don't want to do that, seems to me
the delete=true should handle that.
