I have a problem with custom branding in Karaf 4.0.6. I've put branding.properties file into $KARAF_HOME/etc directory but the welcome message and prompt are still default.
Should I set up something more?
Finally I found the solution. In my case I run karaf as server and then connect via ssh. Since karaf 4.0.6 you have to use file branding-ssh.properties for clients.
