I am trying to install some opendaylight features and one of the features internally uses this dependency. Am i missing out something please help.

Solution

The bundle "leveldbjni" has a dependency on a "native" library. Native as in "os dependent". In OSGi, a bundle can declare several natives libraries, and specify, for each library, when this library can be loaded.

In your error, you can see which library this bundle can load:

windows32/leveldbjni.dll if processor=x86; osname=Win32
windows64/leveldbjni.dll if processor=x86-64; osname=Win32
osx/libleveldbjni.jnilib if processor=x86; osname=macosx
osx/libleveldbjni.jnilib if processor=x86-64; osname=macosx
linux32/libleveldbjni.so if processor=x86; osname=Linux
linux64/libleveldbjni.so if processor=x86-64; osname=Linux

In your case, osname="Windows 8.1", so there is no library matching this name, and the requirement fails.

Each OSGi framework has a list of "alias" for mapping osname-s. It depends on your implementation (and versions). For example, the latest version of Equinox has this configuration:

Windows8 "Windows 8" "Windows 8.1" "Windows 8.2" "Windows 8.3" Win8 Win32 # Microsoft

In Felix :

felix.native.osname.alias.windows8=windows 8,win32

I don't know which framework you use, or which version, but if you use Felix (which is the default), you can try to add, in the file etc/system.properties :

felix.native.osname.alias.windows8=windows 8,windows 8.1,win32

In Equinox, this issue is tracked on Bug 423970. I don't know how to override these properties. Karaf 4 has a version of Equinox which should work.

You can try, maybe, to override in etc/system.properties the value of the os (Honestly, I don't know if it will work as this value should be discovered - and it's an ugly hack to hardcode this value)

org.osgi.framework.os.name = Win32
