This seems to be the one causing this particular issue: https://git.opendaylight.org/gerrit/#/c/43030/
Somehow ${PWD} in this patch gets replaced by /w in the generated karaf file present in bin. Making changes to my karaf in-line with this patch worke for me Victor, Can you replace the realpath() in your karaf with this: realpath() { OURPWD=${PWD} cd "$(dirname "${1}")" LINK=$(readlink "$(basename "${1}")") while [ "${LINK}" ]; do cd "$(dirname "${LINK}")" LINK=$(readlink "$(basename "${1}")") done REALPATH="${PWD}/$(basename "${1}")" cd "${OURPWD}" echo "${REALPATH}" } Reference: https://git.opendaylight.org/gerrit/#/c/43030/3/karaf/opendaylight-karaf-resources/src/main/resources/bin/karaf Regards, Vishal. -----Original Message----- From: Robert Varga [mailto:n...@hq.sk] Sent: 04 August 2016 02:15 To: Victor Pickard <vpick...@redhat.com>; Vishal Thapar <vishal.tha...@ericsson.com>; Alexis de Talhouët <adetalho...@inocybe.com> Cc: controller-dev <controller-dev@lists.opendaylight.org>; ovsdb-...@lists.opendaylight.org Subject: Re: [controller-dev] Unable to run karaf [Windows7] On 08/03/2016 10:24 PM, Victor Pickard wrote: > Same problem in netvirt. > > On Wed, Aug 3, 2016 at 4:09 PM, Vishal Thapar > <vishal.tha...@ericsson.com <mailto:vishal.tha...@ericsson.com>> wrote: > > Hi,____ > > __ __ > > When trying to run karaf from ovsdb/southbound's karaf I get the > following error:____ > > __ __ > > $ ./karaf____ > > ./karaf: line 22: readlink: command not found____ > > *./karaf: line 28: cd: /w: No such file or directory**____* > > Error: Could not find or load main class > org.apache.karaf.main.Main____ FYI, bin/karaf is coming from odlparent, so it affects all projects building a distribution. I do not know why have not seen this earlier, but I am pretty sure it is caused by https://git.opendaylight.org/gerrit/39982 which addresses BUG-6027. What is the environment bin/karaf is expected to run on? My understanding was modern UNIX (in which case readlink is a fair request, even Solaris 10 has it), but if all we can rely is bashish, we need to explicitly state that in the file (along with minumum bash version), so this kind of breakage does not occur again.
