Thanks all for the help. Stuart, I think "mvn clean install pax:provision -U" did the trick and it gets to the point where it tries to start and run the bundle on Felix. It is weird that a combination of "mvn install" followed by "mvn pax:provision" didn't do the job ...
Now I have a dummy problem. I believe pax provision should be able to pull the dependencies off the network and launch them on the framework. isn't it so? However, when I run "mvn clean install pax:provision -U" it stops at the point where it stopped for Alin, complaining about an unresolved constraint in bundle 1: package; (package=org.apache.log4j) for the servlet. I also tried embedding the dependencies when building the bundle using <Embed-Dependency> and <Embed-Transitive> but the problem got worse as it started nagging about (package=javax.jms). so, is it a problem with "pax provision" not being able to pull out the dependencies, or am I doing something wrong when trying to get the bundles and their dependencies packages? digging into the mailing list, I found out that Rich Wallace has also complained about a similar problem long ago (see below). I believe Stuart has solved the problem by now but I am not sure if this is something that transitive dependencies are causing or whether there is any problem with my packaging and embedding of the dependencies. --> pax:provision not picking up transitive dependencies --> Richard Wallace --> Sat, 06 Sep 2008 09:01:23 -0700 bests, -Nima On Wed, Jun 10, 2009 at 3:13 AM, Stuart McCulloch <mccu...@gmail.com> wrote: > > 2009/6/10 Alin Dreghiciu <adreghi...@gmail.com> >> >> I was just able to start the bundle using Pax Runner.
