Hi David, After synced your latest changes, I made a geronimo-jetty8-minimal assembly, and tried to install welcome-jetty car to the server, but seems it does not work. No welcome page shows up at url http://localhost:8080/.
Upon welcome-jetty car bundle installation, no error; Upon starting the bundle, no error. However, just can not see the expected page at the url above. After restarting the server, I noticed several bundle activation exceptions like this: ka...@root> ERROR: Error starting mvn:org.apache.geronimo.configs/jetty8-deployer/3.0-SNAPSHOT/car (org.osgi.framework.BundleException: Activator start error in bundle org.apache.geronimo.configs.jetty8-deployer [123].) java.lang.NullPointerException: Specified service reference cannot be null. at org.apache.felix.framework.BundleContextImpl.getService(BundleContextImpl.java:320) at org.apache.geronimo.kernel.osgi.ConfigurationActivator.start(ConfigurationActivator.java:50) at org.apache.felix.framework.util.SecureAction.startActivator(SecureAction.java:640) at org.apache.felix.framework.Felix.activateBundle(Felix.java:1700) at org.apache.felix.framework.Felix.startBundle(Felix.java:1622) at org.apache.felix.framework.Felix.setActiveStartLevel(Felix.java:1077) at org.apache.felix.framework.StartLevelImpl.run(StartLevelImpl.java:264) at java.lang.Thread.run(Thread.java:619) ERROR: Error starting file:/home/forrestxm/localbuild/rsaws/g30/plugins/welcome/welcome-jetty/target/welcome-jetty-3.0-SNAPSHOT.car (org.osgi.framework.BundleException: Activator start error in bundle org.apache.geronimo.configs.welcome-jetty [143].) java.lang.NullPointerException: Specified service reference cannot be null. at org.apache.felix.framework.BundleContextImpl.getService(BundleContextImpl.java:320) at org.apache.geronimo.kernel.osgi.ConfigurationActivator.start(ConfigurationActivator.java:50) at org.apache.felix.framework.util.SecureAction.startActivator(SecureAction.java:640) at org.apache.felix.framework.Felix.activateBundle(Felix.java:1700) at org.apache.felix.framework.Felix.startBundle(Felix.java:1622) at org.apache.felix.framework.Felix.setActiveStartLevel(Felix.java:1077) at org.apache.felix.framework.StartLevelImpl.run(StartLevelImpl.java:264) at java.lang.Thread.run(Thread.java:619) Anyway, the jetty server does boot and serve on port 8080. It's good to see that :) thanks! Forrest
