I am new to OSGi, I am not able to run the "Hello OSGi Bundle" Template on Eclipse Mars(4.5.1), I am getting the below mentioned console messages.

My questions is - Do we need to install anything else except Eclipse Mars(4.5.1) to run the Hello OSGi Template? JDK I have is 1.7.0_80.

What I tried-

  1. Search on internet for this problem - could not resolve in 2 days :(

  2. In Run Configurations- click "Deselect All" Button then select my bundle then Click "Add Required bundles"(this action adds 2 more bundles)

  3. Click - "Validate Bundles"- gave "No problems were detected" alert.

  4. Click "Apply" button

  5. Click "Run" button.

  6. Resources that are added default by Eclipse Mars- enter image description here

Console messages - 

Hello World!!

UPDATE-

Perhaps, the below worked for me in Eclipse Mars(reached there out of reading console error messages and luck) - enter image description here

OSGi Console Output- enter image description here

But still can not see the osgi> prompt in the command shell window(Windows 7), the shell just keeps on waiting. Why? -enter image description here

  • All the necessary plugins are there, but the 'add required plugins' doesn't seem to do a very good job. – greg-449 Feb 05 '16 at 10:34
  • Thanks for the response! How do I proceed then? One more point is when I run on command shell(Windows 7) like- `C:\Desktop\eclipse\plugins>java -jar org.eclipse.osgi_3.10.101.v 20150820-1432.jar -console` , the `>OSGi` prompt is not coming rather the Command prompt keeps waiting...Also the console says that it can not find bundle - `org.eclipse.equinox.console` but the Equinox document says that it comes installed as a part of Eclipse Mars. – Ishank Feb 05 '16 at 10:54

    The best way to proceed would be to learn OSGi using [Bndtools](http://bndtools.org/). – Neil Bartlett Feb 05 '16 at 11:00
  • Thanks! Will try that out, just curious why is the shell command `C:\Desktop\eclipse\plugins>java -jar org.eclipse.osgi_3.10.101.v 20150820-1432.jar -console` not giving the `>OSGi` prompt? That makes me think if I am missing something in the jars required.. – Ishank Feb 05 '16 at 11:14
  • Also right now I want only the Hello OSGi template to work and Bndtools seems a bit of an overhead just check Hello World on the OSGi console. – Ishank Feb 05 '16 at 11:21

    You might want to get started wth OSGi enRoute because it has a number of tutorials and is very nicely setup with bndtools. http://enroute.osgi.org – Peter Kriens Feb 11 '16 at 17:59
