This bug is actually a spin-off of
http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FELIX-1228

and the related mail thread.
About this line in the patch:
throw new RuntimeException( "Cannot start FileInstall to watch a non-existent directory" );
actually, you *can* start FileInstall to watch a non-existent directory.
Should be something like:
throw new RuntimeException( "Cannot start FileInstall to watch something that is not a directory" );

> The "traverse" method of the DirectoryWatcher class will raise a NPE if the provided "jardir" parameter does not point to a directory.
> The for loop inside that method should read:
> for (int i = 0; (list!=null) && (i < list.length); i++){...}
> To avoid hiding the configuration problem, the constructor of the DirectoryWatcher class could be amended like this:
> ...
> this.watchedDirectory = new File(dir);
>
> if (!this.watchedDirectory.exists()){
> if (!this.watchedDirectory.mkdirs()) { throw new RuntimeException("Failed to create directory " + this.watchedDirectory.getAbsolutePath());}
> }else{
> if (this.watchedDirectory.isDirectory()){
> log(this.watchedDirectory.getAbsolutePath() + " already existing", null);
> }else{
> log(this.watchedDirectory.getAbsolutePath() + " exists, but is not a directory", null);
> throw new RuntimeException(this.watchedDirectory.getAbsolutePath()+" exists, but is not a directory");
