Hi, I stumbling across an issue where I can start a bundle with the File Install mechanism or manually. Our application heavily depends on the Felix File Install functionality to deploy or uninstall bundles. We have several instances of Servicemix running with the exact same setting and bundles installed. But there is only one Servicemix instances causing problems.
>From the moment we move a jar into the default fileinstall directory 'deploy', felix will recognise the jar install it. But, here comes the troubling part, not start the bundle. It tries to start the bundle, I can tell by looking into logfile. This entry is appearing in the logs: 14:00:45,222 | INFO | mix-4.5.1/deploy | fileinstall | 7 - org.apache.felix.fileinstall - 3.2.4 | Started bundle: file:/opt/esb/apache-servicemix-4.5.1/deploy/test.jar 14:00:46,229 | INFO | mix-4.5.1/deploy | fileinstall | 7 - org.apache.felix.fileinstall - 3.2.4 | Started bundle: file:/opt/esb/apache-servicemix-4.5.1/deploy/test.jar 14:00:47,236 | INFO | mix-4.5.1/deploy | fileinstall | 7 - org.apache.felix.fileinstall - 3.2.4 | Started bundle: file:/opt/esb/apache-servicemix-4.5.1/deploy/test.jar 14:00:48,245 | INFO | mix-4.5.1/deploy | fileinstall | 7 - org.apache.felix.fileinstall - 3.2.4 | Started bundle: file:/opt/esb/apache-servicemix-4.5.1/deploy/test.jar As you will notice it tries to start the bundle every second. Also when we remove a installed bundle from the deploy folder the bundle will get stuck in 'stopping' state. And Felix will try to stop the bundle repeatedly without any luck. Another cause of this is no other bundle will be picked up because Felix is already busy starting or stopping a bundle. I'm using a Servicemix 4.5.1 instance with the default Felix 3.2.4, as OS we use Ubuntu 12.04.2 LTS. Anybody encountered this before? Or have a slightest idea where I can look or what I'm doing wrong? Any help or info is very much appreciated! Thanks in advance. Kind Regards, Niels
