Solution

  • It seems like you are running Eclipse Juno, which comes bundled with OSGi v3.8, which does not uses the Eclipse in built console, but the console is now contained it's own bundle. You need to add that bundle. That is what your OSGi is complaining about. You also need to add some felix bundle to get the new console run.

    In all, at a minimum, you need to select following bundles in your OSGi run configuration:

    - org.eclipse.osgi
- org.eclipse.equinox.console
- org.apache.felix.gogo.runtime
- org.apache.felix.gogo.shell

    Or, if you want to use the eclipse built in console, you can enable it by passing following VM arguments:

    -Dosgi.console.enable.builtin=true
