["Jean-Baptiste Onofré (JIRA)" <ji...@apache.org>]

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/KARAF-670?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=13046368#comment-13046368 ] 

Jean-Baptiste Onofré commented on KARAF-670:
--------------------------------------------

Karaf can't start without the system folder as it contains the OSGi framework (Apache Felix framework and Equinox).

So, I'm gonna add a check in the Main to see if the system folder (identified by ${karaf.default.repository}/system) is available at bootstrap.
In the same way, etc folder should be check.

> I manually created an instance and set karaf.base to the new instance folder, but I forgot to create the folder ${karaf.base}/system. This missing folder died on dir.listFiles() in Main.findFiles(). That method checks theFile for existence, but its caller forgets to check bundleDir.
