As someone already pointed out, this seems to be the real issue.
Why would that be an issue?
WebappClassLoader, which is what the war uses to load any class, has
loaded ConsoleAppender as well as the interface Appender. In the OSGi
classloading space, Appender is loaded by some bundle's class loader. I
was thinking that somehow the ConsoleAppender as loaded by the
application class loader is coming in contact with Appender which is
loaded by a bundle.
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.
How?
Since Felix is started by the web app, Felix would use that web app's
class loader for any delegation. By having this property, both OSGi
bundles should see same log4j classes as the web app.
