hmm ... to me this artifact: org.hibernate:hibernate-validator-osgi-karaf-features
doesn't sound like a bundle but more like a feature. and according to this[1], it is a feature file. So make sure you reference the "hibernate-validator" feature in your own feature file. if you want to define a dependency to another feature file from your own. make sure to have a repo definition: <repository>mvn:org.hibernate/hibernate-validator-osgi-karaf-features/5.4.1.Final/xml/features</repository> regards, Achim [1] - http://search.maven.org/#artifactdetails%7Corg.hibernate%7Chibernate-validator-osgi-karaf-features%7C5.4.1.Final%7Cpom [2] - https://repo1.maven.org/maven2/org/hibernate/hibernate-validator-osgi-karaf-features/5.4.1.Final/hibernate-validator-osgi-karaf-features-5.4.1.Final-features.xml 2017-06-05 17:37 GMT+02:00 KARR, DAVID <dk0...@att.com>: > I'm working on a codebase that builds a bunch of OSGi modules, and deploys > to karaf. > > I'm attempting to implement javax.validation using Hibernate Validator.
