Jean-Baptiste Onofré commented on KARAF-6610:
---------------------------------------------
OK, so you are using the bundle deployer (fileinstall) for your own bundles. Do
you have dependencies (package or service) between your bundles in deploy
folder ?
> Unstable initial startup of karaf

> Key: KARAF-6610
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/KARAF-6610
> Project: Karaf
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: karaf
> Environment: OS: CentOS 7.7.1908
> Java 11
> Karaf 4.2.8 / 4.2.7
> My application uses OSGI Declarative Services, ~50 various bundles.

> We have a problem with unstable initial startup of karaf. From time to time
> startup fails because of some weird exceptions coming from karaf and felix.
> Typically after 2nd or at most 3rd restart problem goes away.
> I expect there is some race condition depending on CPU speed or something
> else. That problem almost never occurs on powerful hardware workstations, but
> is rather frequent on Virtual machines. Because of that issue we have special
> startup script which retries in case of failures ... and this is somewhat odd.
> Today I came across the problem that application under karaf fails to start
> correctly all the time with any number of retries. After some additional
> digging i have noticed that there is another process on virtual server which
> consumes 100% of CPU and therefore ticks left to karaf are very limited.
> To prove idea that karaf failures depend on timings - i killed those
> processes and karaf started correctly.
> After that i've started https://sourceforge.net/projects/systester
> (./systester-cli -qcborwein 64M -threads 4 -bench) to consume entire CPU and
> retried starting karaf – it failed.
> I’m attaching exceptions I’ve got in the log. There are 2 of them
> 1. Initial startup
> 2. Admin console displayed all my bundlers as ‘Active’ (strange, but it
> is) - I restarted few of them manually and got slightly different set of
> exceptions
