Description

Running code like this...

FileConfiguration config = new PropertiesConfiguration();
config.setFile(new File("/invalid/path/my.properties"));
config.save();

...doesn't throw any Exception. AbstractFileConfiguration.save(File) swallows
the FileNotFoundException, prints a stack trace, and completes normally,
without having saved the file.
