As far as I know, Celix leverages the same deployment packages that ACE also serves to Felix (or any other OSGi framework). > A major issue is the compatibility of amdatu/felix and celix-bundles.

A good starting point is to run the "all-in-one" server inside Eclipse (with Bndtools plugin) and to start debugging there. My first question is: did you check the log on the server to see what messages you get there? In ACE-488 you've obviously found a case where the message in the UI could be a lot more clear, but in almost all of these cases, the log on the server side has more information. If that does not work, I would start adding breakpoints to the code to single step through the process. If you need some classes/methods to start, let me know. I will take a closer look at ACE-488 and comment in Jira if I see anything that helps us diagnose the issue. Greetings, Marcel
