[jira] [Commented] (KARAF-955) Confusing behavior of ConfigAdmin

["Guillaume Nodet (Commented) (JIRA)" <ji...@apache.org>]

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/KARAF-955?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=13132601#comment-13132601 ] 

Guillaume Nodet commented on KARAF-955:
---------------------------------------

Yes, I can see why it would be confusing, but the point is that the etc/ folder is not the central repository for configuration, so what happens is that when karaf is restarted, it still uses the old config until the new one is picked up (asynchronously).

> Hi there,
> I've faced with the following behavior of ConfigAdmin which I suppose is a little bit confusing.
> Steps to reproduce:
> # Start Karaf
> # Go to *$\{karaf.home}/data/log* directory
> # *karaf.log* file should be there
> # Stop Karaf
> # Go to *$\{karaf.home}/data/log* directory and delete *karaf.log* file
> # When Karaf is stopped change *log4j.appender.out.file* property in the *$\{karaf.home}/etc/org.ops4j.pax.logging.cfg* file from *$\{karaf.data}/log/karaf.log* to *$\{karaf.data}/log/karaf1.log*
> # Start Karaf
> # Go to *$\{karaf.home}/data/log* directory
> # Only *karaf1.log* file is expected to be there, but empty *karaf.log* that has been deleted on the step 4 is also there.
