Re: Diagnosing config problems concisely

2016-03-31 Thread Christian Schneider

I think it would be difficult to create such a feature in a generic way.
What you could do is create a bundle that checks the availability of the 
relevant services your application provides and throws a meaningful 
error if someting is not working.

This bundle could then also stop karaf in this case.

Is there any way to plug something in that would run very early, and 
could abort startup after complaining?
