Thx for this project! This is exactly that I'd looking for. Have some problem: then try clone git: - git clone git://git.springsource.org/osgi-web-container/osgi-web-container.git every thing looks good. But then I try to run Ant: - ant clean test collect I got the problem: "Cannot find MY_PATH\osgi-web-container\spring-build/multi-bundle\default.xml imported from MY_PATH\osgi-web-container\build-web-container\build.xml" Hi.

The App registers some servlets to the HTTPService (PaxWeb). I put in place a WAR to manage the security with SpringSecurity, but I need to register the servlets to the Web Container. How I can do? Any example? Thanks in advance Hi Rob,

I tried it and saw that the application is loaded from the war file. But my application uses a functionality (such as getRealPath() etc.) that expects that application is extracted as in the standard Tomcat/Jetty. Is there some property that I can use in order to force the OSGI Web Container to extract the war file on the file system or the application is loaded always from the archive? If there is no such functionality, then do you plan to provide such? Thanks in advance Hi,

Then more or less you have a modified WAR (modified MANIFEST with OSGi headers) that can benefit from OSGi platform (e.g. services). Anyway, my question is a little bit different. What about having WAR deployed without bundalization, so it is not part of the OSGi. I mean can we have war deployed into Tomcat bundle dedicated folder, without the need to have RI? E.g. deployed into a "webapp" folder of the Tomcat bundle (available into the SpringSource repo) and "exploded" into it. I was thinking that the default-server.xml used by Tomcat startup bundle (available as part of Spring DM) could be modified so a "webapp" folder was set up? Thus you do not need the RI and you "have" full backward compatibility of your legacy WARs. WARs are fully functional, but without being directly part of OSGi platform (e.g. only Tomcat is a bundle).Last but not least, you have "exploded" WAR.

You can, of course, deploy a standard WAR in the RI programatically using the webbundle: URL scheme as described above. @Dobri, there's no mechanism in the RI itself for automatic deployment when a war's dropped into a directory. dm Server, which embeds the RI, offers this functionality in the form of its pickup directory.

I am not sure this is the place to ask you that question, but if you do not need to have your WAR as a bundle, is it possible to configure the web server (e.g. Tomcat) bundle in such a way, that WAR files are deployed in the natural way. Just dropping them into the "webapp" (Tomcat) folder. Thus you can deploy your legacy WARs without bundlizing them. I can imagine doing this modifying the startup bundle of Tomcat and modify its default-server.xml settings? Thanks! Hi Andy,

I've just tried doing a fresh clone and it worked fine on both Mac and Windows using Git 1.6.3.2 and 1.6.4.msysgit.0 respectively. Which client are you using? That's strange.

The problem with git at my side is: "D:\>git clone git://git.springsource.org/osgi-web-container/osgi-web-container.git Initialized empty Git repository in D:/osgi-web-container/.git/ git.springsource.org[0: 89.21.231.40]: errno=No such file or directory fatal: unable to connect a socket (No such file or directory)" I asked some of my colleagues to check, too, and they get the same result. When I get the osgi-web-container then I will definitely check the sample proposed. Thanks for the information about the movement to Gemini project. Hi Andy,
