I'm trying to start Apache Felix (java -jar felix.jar) from the Windows 7 cmd, but I get nothing. The cursor simply jumps to the next line which then remains blank and blinking forever. I don't get the Apache Felix success message, ie:
Welcome to Felix
================
-> ps
What could I be missing?
When I start from the directory of the felix distribution it works for me. I got a similar behaviour like you when I started directly from the bin directory as then the launcher did not find the config.properties.
It might also be about the java version. I used Java 8.
