> Web Console configuration does not appear in configurations

> Key: FELIX-5105
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FELIX-5105
> Project: Felix
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: Web Console
> Affects Versions: webconsole-4.2.14
> Reporter: Miroslav Šulc
> Priority: Major
> Labels: patch
> Attachments: metatype.xml.patch
>
>
> since some time web console configuration is more and more broken it seems.
> there is for example bug related to lost localization of the configuration
> which i encountered on my installations too. in some cases it also happens
> that the web console configuration is not displayed at all. in fact i was not
> able to display it (and so edit it) at all. i tried to debug the issue but
> the only thing i found is that for some (to me) unknown reason the
> configuration from java class is not picked up.
> in version 4.2.15-SNAPSHOT and older versions the metatype provider is
> implemented as java class
> org.apache.felix.webconsole.internal.servlet.ConfigurationMetatypeSupport.
> that is probably the cause of the problem that the configuration usually does
> not load, maybe because of some synchronization issue. i noticed some
> information about attempts to fix it in previous versions of web console but
> these were just attempts as the issue persists.
> i have no idea why the metatype provider is implemented using
> ConfigurationMetatypeSupport class instead of using metatype.xml file which
> would be more transparent and easier to manage, maybe it's for historical
> reason when metatype implementation was not that capable as it is now.
> so i created metatype.xml file that defines the same configuration as is done
> using ConfigurationMetatypeSupport and it seems to work fine. i did not
> remove the ConfigurationMetatypeSupport and related code though as i guess it
> would be better done by someone who better understands the code.
> i will try to attach the patch i have if i find out how.
