Question

I’m trying to “rename” a folder with my application copying the source folder to another.

But… When I create the destination folder, the files inside it are empty (0 bytes).
Notice that this happens only on the linux machine where I deploy the app.
Doesn’t happens on my local machine with windows.

I’ve tried

Files.copy(src, dest);

and creating the byte array with input/output streams

byte[] buffer = new byte[1024];

Same result.
Any ideas?

I am not sure why this problem occurs on the Linux machine, what VM and Version is running on the Linux machine?

You might want to try apache commons-io FileUtils it has copyDirectory methods, makes live much easier.
