Hey David, I tried your second approach.
I first installed subsystems on felix by following this guide: http://coderthoughts.blogspot.be/2014/01/osgi-subsytems-on-apache-felix.html <http://coderthoughts.blogspot.be/2014/01/osgi-subsytems-on-apache-felix.html> Afterwords I tried to install a subsystem through the webconsole, but the error.log returns following exception: 12.11.2015 12:48:31.624 *ERROR* [Thread-65] org.apache.sling.extensions.threaddump.internal.Activator Uncaught exception in Thread Thread[Thread-65,5,main] org.osgi.service.subsystem.SubsystemException: java.net.MalformedURLException: Unknown protocol: inputstream at org.apache.aries.subsystem.core.internal.InstallAction.run(InstallAction.java:101) at org.apache.aries.subsystem.core.internal.InstallAction.run(InstallAction.java:31) at java.security.AccessController.doPrivileged(Native Method) at org.apache.aries.subsystem.core.internal.BasicSubsystem.install(BasicSubsystem.java:560) at org.apache.aries.subsystem.core.internal.BasicSubsystem.install(BasicSubsystem.java:252) at org.apache.aries.subsystem.core.internal.BasicSubsystem.install(BasicSubsystem.java:58) at org.apache.felix.webconsole.plugins.subsystem.internal.WebConsolePlugin$1.exec(WebConsolePlugin.java:191) at org.apache.felix.webconsole.plugins.subsystem.internal.WebConsolePlugin$5.run(WebConsolePlugin.java:267) at java.lang.Thread.run(Thread.java:745) Caused by: java.net.MalformedURLException: Unknown protocol: inputstream at java.net.URL.<init>(URL.java:620) at java.net.URL.<init>(URL.java:483) at java.net.URL.<init>(URL.java:432) at java.net.URI.toURL(URI.java:1089) at org.apache.aries.subsystem.core.internal.Location.<init>(Location.java:69) at org.apache.aries.subsystem.core.internal.RawSubsystemResource.<init>(RawSubsystemResource.java:113) at org.apache.aries.subsystem.core.internal.SubsystemResource.<init>(SubsystemResource.java:92) at org.apache.aries.subsystem.core.internal.InstallAction.createSubsystemResource(InstallAction.java:128) at org.apache.aries.subsystem.core.internal.InstallAction.run(InstallAction.java:62) ... 8 common frames omitted Caused by: java.lang.IllegalStateException: Unknown protocol: inputstream at org.apache.felix.framework.URLHandlersStreamHandlerProxy.parseURL(URLHandlersStreamHandlerProxy.java:373) at java.net.URL.<init>(URL.java:615) ... 16 common frames omitted Any idea where it’s going wrong?
