BTW, there wasn't a convenience distro release for Felix framework
1.8.1, which only contained a few specific fixes. If you want to use
that version, just download the org.apache.felix.main-1.8.1.jar file and
replace bin/felix.jar with it.
Look at the change log to see if it is worthwhile for you; if not, just
wait for the next release.

Hi James,
You'll need write permissions in the directory you are executing in so that
the cache directory can be made.
Or you can specify the bundle cache dir as the first argument to the felix
command.
java -jar felix.jar<cachedir>
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

I'm trying to get started with Felix and have run into a problem right
off the bat. I downloaded the framework (the site said 1.8.1 was
available, but 1.8.0 seems to have come down), unzipped it, and tried to
start it up. Here's what I got:
j...@cheyenne:~/Programs/Felix/felix-1.8.0/bin$ java -jar felix.jar
Welcome to Felix.

Being kinda new I can't say where to begin to find out how to fix this
so if someone could point this noob in the right direction I would be
much obliged.
Thanks,
