Ok, I guess the best I can do is to add some more traces to figure out why we get an AccessDeniedException. We should not.

The problem showed up again.

This looks like a problem that should be fixed by of JDK-8052403. It looks as if the writable-dir has been deleted by something else while the test was running. Does your repo have JDK-8052403? If it doesn't - I suggest closing this as a dup of JDK-8052403.
