Hi, This seemed to work, sort of:
> org.osgi.framework.bootdelegation=sun.*,com.sun.*, org.apache.log4j.* There was a class cast exception, as follows: > ERROR: EventDispatcher: Error during dispatch. (java.lang.ClassCastException: org.ops4j.pax.logging.internal.PaxLoggingServiceImpl$1ManagedPaxLoggingS ervice can not be cast to org.ops4j.pax.logging.PaxLoggingService) And, some other posthemus weird error from pax: > org.ops4j.pax.logging.pax-logging-api[org.apache.felix.configadmin] : [org.osgi.service.log.LogService,org.knopflerfish.service.log.LogService ,org.ops4j.pax.logging.PaxLoggingService, org.osgi.service.cm.ManagedService]: Unexpected problem updating configuration java.lang.VerifyError: (class: org/apache/log4j/Hierarchy, method: updateChildren signature: (Lorg/apache/log4j/ProvisionNode;Lorg/apache/log4j/Logger;)V) Incompatible type for getting or setting field In the end, I am not a fan of these heavy weight loggers... I'll probably just write my own file logger... But, I'll respond to Karl's question(s) next...

Try setting the following in felix/config.properties file or whatever equivalent way to pass it while invoking Felix using an API: org.osgi.framework.bootdelegation=sun.*,com.sun.*, org.apache.log4j.* I am not suggesting this as a long term solution, but this can take us towards the solution. Thanks, Sahoo
