The activator instance is created by OSGi framework itself outside of Spring. Hence you would not be able to access services via DI. The one created through your entry in spring cofig is a different instance. Instead you can remove activator entry from your pom.xml and rely on Spring itself to call lifecycle methods like init and destroy
