      1. start EAP
      2. do configuration change 
        /system-property=foo:add(value=bar)
      3. stop eap
        history is now stored in /standalone_xml_history/current
      4. start eap again
      5. stop eap
        history is now in /standalone_xml_history/TIMESTAMP
      6. change permission of /standalone_xml_history/TIMESTAMP to 555 
        chmod 555 20170221-114800298/
      7. rename TIMESTAMP dir, change months to -2
        EAP by default deletes history older than 30 days
      8. start EAP -> boot fails

      it doesn't exactly reproduce NPE, but it shows that error while removing old config files prevents server from boot

    Description

      org.jboss.as.controller.persistence.ConfigurationFile#deleteRecursively is missing error checking.

      If an I/O error occurs while listing the directory contents (file permission error/etc) it still tries to use the listing and gets a NullPointerException.

      This method is used while removing old configuration history directories during boot, and the NullPointerException causes the EAP boot to abort.

          • Major - To be worked after higher priority work items are addressed. When the severity is high and the effort to change it is low to moderate, this term is chosen. Issues in this category likely have an existing workaround but implementation or execution may be non-trivial.
