Ehcache disk store unclean shutdown

Question

I\'m using a cache with disk store persistence. On subsequent reruns of the app I\'m getting the following error:

net.sf.ehcache.store.DiskStore deleteIndexI

For those of us using Ehcache with Spring 3.1+ and java config, you have to use:

@Bean(destroyMethod = "shutdown")
public net.sf.ehcache.CacheManager ehCacheManager() { .. }

and (assuming you're also using a non-web Spring ApplicationContext, enable the shutdown hook there to cause the bean to be destroyed gracefully:

context = new AnnotationConfigApplicationContext(AppConfig.class);
((AbstractApplicationContext) context).registerShutdownHook();

see this for more information.
