ok, I got it all working in non-embedded mode and using the shell console. I tried getting the web console to work (http://felix.apache.org/site/apache-felix-web-console.html), but I had issues getting PAX Web Service to run (first it complained about org.osgi.service.cm which I solved by installing and running Felix's Config Admin, then it complained about org.osgi.service.http and I got stuck there).
turns out the shell console works just fine for me. For anyone following this thread in the future: * download and unzip felix.zip from this link http://felix.apache.org/site/downloads.cgi * follow these instructions to start Felix: http://felix.apache.org/site/apache-felix-usage-documentation.html * enter a random profile name * put the 4 servicebased.XXX.jar files in the root felix-1.2.x directory * install file:servicedbased.XXX-1.0.0.jar for each of the four jars * start <bundle_id> for each of the 4 jars then you can run 'stop <bundle_id>' to and see what happens. Very cool! Thanks for the help guys!

And a big part of them should go to Richard who prepared the presentation! Thanks Richard. Now, in the demo I installed Apache Sling which includes the Felix webconsole. This allowed me to demo the shapes app and another subproject from Felix, the webconsole. I think in your case, the shell console would be a better option - the ui is not that ehm fancy as the webconsole, but it shows pretty well what's going on wrt to bundle starts etc. Carsten Brad A Cupit wrote: > I take it this would require that I run the Felix as non-embedded, right? > > Basically, I just want to show my supervisor how it handles starting and > stopping bundles, and I'd favor the easiest possible setup. > > Would the shell console be a better option? > > Brad Cupit > LSU - University Information Systems > > -----Original Message----- > From: Reto Bachmann-Gmür [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] > Sent: Wednesday, November 12, 2008 10:49 AM > To: [email protected] > Subject: Re: easy question: shapes demo > > You need to install and start the web management console (look for "web > console" on http://felix.apache.org/site/downloads.cgi) and point your > browser to http://localhost:8080/system/console > > reto > > Brad A Cupit said the following on 2008-11-12 17:37: >> I attended Carsten Ziegeler's excellent Felix presentation at US >> ApacheCon 2008 last week and I decided to play around with the 'shapes' >> demo application [1] >> >> I remember Carsten showing a UI for starting/stopping bundles, but I >> can't figure out how to do that.
