Cannot access to the webconsole interface

Question

Since few days, I am playing around with apache felix. Everything works fine as it can be seen when lauching the lb command:

START LEVEL 2
   ID|State      |Level|Name
    0|Active     |    0|System Bundle (4.0.3)
    1|Active     |    2|Apache Felix Bundle Repository (1.6.6)
    2|Active     |    2|Apache Felix Configuration Admin Service (1.6.0)
    3|Active     |    2|Apache Felix Gogo Command (0.12.0)
    4|Active     |    2|Apache Felix Gogo Runtime (0.10.0)
    5|Active     |    2|Apache Felix Gogo Shell (0.10.0)
    6|Active     |    2|Apache Felix Http Bundle (2.2.0)
    7|Active     |    2|Apache Felix iPOJO (1.8.6)
    8|Active     |    2|Apache Felix iPOJO OSGi Junit Runner (1.0.0)
    9|Active     |    2|Apache Felix Shell Service (1.4.3)
   10|Active     |    2|Apache Felix Web Management Console (3.1.8)
   11|Installed  |    3|[Optimacs/OSGi] DataService - Hello World (1.1.0)
   12|Active     |    2|[Optimacs/OSGi] DataService Model (0.4.1.SNAPSHOT)
   13|Active     |    2|[Optimacs/OSGi] DataService Network API (0.4.1.SNAPSHOT)
   14|Active     |    2|[Optimacs/OSGi] DataService Container (0.4.1.SNAPSHOT)

According to this list, I can use the web management console. To this aim I have set the org.osgi.service.http.port option to 8080. My problem occurs when I open my browser (Chrome, the latest version) and try accessing to the web console (url = http://localhost:8080/system/console). I get an error 102 (connection refused). Is there any particular configuration step I have missed?

EDIT

Running inspect cap service through the gogo shell reports the following about the HttpService:

org.apache.felix.http.bundle [6] provides:
------------------------------------------
service; javax.servlet.http.HttpServlet with properties:
   http.felix.dispatcher = org.apache.felix.http.base.internal.DispatcherServlet
   service.description = Dispatcher for bridged request handling
   service.id = 20
   service.vendor = The Apache Software Foundation
service; java.util.EventListener with properties:
   http.felix.dispatcher = org.apache.felix.http.base.internal.EventDispatcher
   service.description = Dispatcher for bridged HttpSession events
   service.id = 21
   service.vendor = The Apache Software Foundation

There is no indication about the used port unfortunately.

Hmm, nothing obvious is missing. I wonder if the HttpService is present, could you do `inspect cap service` from the shell and scan through for HttpService? If it's there it should also report what port number it is using. — Neil Bartlett, Jan 25 '13 at 18:14
@NeilBartlett I have editted my post taking your comment into consideration. — Yoann Pitarch, Jan 28 '13 at 07:22
I was looking for information about `HttpService`, not `HttpServlet`. — Neil Bartlett, Jan 28 '13 at 12:40
@NeilBartlett Your comment helps me pointing out what was missing. Actually the http.bundle is not sufficient and org.apache.felix.http.jetty-2.2.0.jar must be installed as well. — Yoann Pitarch, Jan 29 '13 at 07:33
Alternatively you could give https://github.com/evandor/skysail-webconsole a try, it should start up without any problems (at least that is the idea ;) - it is still in early alpha). — evandor, Aug 18 '16 at 07:37

The issue has been resolved thanks to Neil's comment:
