Hi, I also had this problem and it turns out, that the URLs are actually wrong because space is an unsafe character ([1]) and must always be encoded. Unfortunately, the java.io.File.toURL() method handles blanks in path names incorrectly and does NOT encoded them. The workaround since Java 1.4 is to use java.io.File.toURI().toURL() (or just File.toURI().toString() when preparing properties).
So, IMHO Felix is quite correct assuming a space delimited list is safe and ok. Regards Felix [1] - http://www.faqs.org/rfcs/rfc1738.html, Section 2.2 URL Character Encoding Issues On 5/22/07, Guillaume Nodet <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote:
I'm trying to understand how to configure / use the daemon / installer. After having changed the installers/pom.xml to reference the released version of ApacheDS (1.0-RC2 instead of 1.0-RC2-SNAPSHOT) i was able to build the felix installers and install them on Windows. One of the problem was the lack of a felix configuration file, so I copied the one i used and try to start the service. Unfortunately, on Windows, the service is run from C:\windows\system32 folder (or something like that), so I had troubles configuring bundles using the felix.auto.start.1 property. I've tried by prefixing the values with ${felix.home} that way felix.auto.start.1= \ file:${felix.home}/bundle/org.apache.felix.shell- 0.9.0-incubator-SNAPSHOT.jar \ file:${felix.home}/bundle/org.apache.felix.shell.tui- 0.9.0-incubator-SNAPSHOT.jar \ file:${felix.home}/bundle/org.apache.felix.bundlerepository- 0.9.0-incubator-SNAPSHOT.jar but unfortunately, I had the following output: ERROR: Auto-properties install. (org.osgi.framework.BundleException: Unable to cache bundle: file:C:\Program) ERROR: Auto-properties install. (org.osgi.framework.BundleException: Unable to cache bundle: Files\felix-0.9.0-incubator-SNAPSHOT /bundle/org.apache.felix.shell-0.9.0-incubator-SNAPSHOT.jar) ERROR: Auto-properties install. (org.osgi.framework.BundleException: Unable to cache bundle: file:C:\Program) ERROR: Auto-properties install. (org.osgi.framework.BundleException: Unable to cache bundle: Files\felix-0.9.0-incubator-SNAPSHOT /bundle/org.apache.felix.shell.tui-0.9.0-incubator-SNAPSHOT.jar) ERROR: Auto-properties install. (org.osgi.framework.BundleException: Unable to cache bundle: file:C:\Program) ERROR: Auto-properties install. (org.osgi.framework.BundleException: Unable to cache bundle: Files\felix-0.9.0-incubator-SNAPSHOT /bundle/org.apache.felix.bundlerepository-0.9.0-incubator-SNAPSHOT.jar) So it seems the space in "C:\Program Files\" is a problem. Did I miss something on the previous steps ? Is that a known problem ? -- Cheers, Guillaume Nodet ------------------------ Principal Engineer, IONA Blog: http://gnodet.blogspot.com/
