actually I think James just needs to use the following command: java -jar bin/felix.jar from the directory above the "bin" directory - this is because the Felix launcher is basic and does not try to guess where it's been installed (you'll notice the example URLs are relative to the main Felix installation directory) [ http://felix.apache.org/site/apache-felix-usage-documentation.html ] we would like to provide an 'installer' that could update the example config file with the correct installed location, but other issues keep taking precedence - of course if someone would like to contribute a patch to provide a Felix installer (or improve the Felix launcher) feel free to attach it to a new task/feature on JIRA Alternatively, you can specify the location for the cache directory in the > config.properties in the ./config dir. > > Hope it helps. > > Cheers, > > --Jools > > 2009/7/5 James Carroll <[email protected]> > > > I'm trying to get started with Felix and have run into a problem right > > off the bat.
