Fix:

• If possible, ensure you have admin rights
• else:
  • delete /$HOME/.../myDomain/cache
  • delete /$HOME/.../myDomain/data/ldap/ldapfiles/*.lok
  • delete /$HOME/.../myDomain/data/stores/diagnostics/*
  • delete /$HOME/.../myDomain/data/stores/default/*
  • delete /$HOME/.../myDomain/tmp/*.lok
