When I launch OSGi framework with very few bundles selected in the Run Configurations, Eclipse (Oxygen) instead launches all available bundles and spews a bunch of errors. The first one is:
!ENTRY org.eclipse.epp.mpc.ui 4 0 2017-04-13 09:46:50.669
!MESSAGE FrameworkEvent ERROR
!STACK 0
org.osgi.framework.BundleException: Could not resolve module: org.eclipse.epp.mpc.ui [1142]
I have 1252 bundles in total in the list of bundles, but ss returns 1256 bundles. Can anyone shed a light on why is this so?
Added: config.ini
osgi.bundles=reference\:file\:/home/../workspace/.metadata/.plugins/org.eclipse.pde.core/.bundle_pool/plugins/org.eclipse.equinox.simpleconfigurator_1.1.200.v20160504-1450.jar@1\:start
org.eclipse.update.reconcile=false
osgi.bundles.defaultStartLevel=4
osgi.install.area=file\:/home/../workspace/.metadata/.plugins/org.eclipse.pde.core/.bundle_pool

osgi.configuration.cascaded=false
Check whether plugin org.eclipse.epp.mpc.ui present in bungle.info file(org.eclipse.equinox.simpleconfigurator.configUrl=file\:/home/../workspace/.metadata/.plugins/org.eclipse.pde.core/stable-test/org.eclipse.equinox.simpleconfigurator/bundles.info)
I think it is missing in your case, if so install this plugin in your eclipse installation. Then replace add osgi.bundles property as mentioned below in config.ini. Restart application.
osgi.bundles=org.eclipse.epp.mpc.ui@1\:start,reference:file:/home/../workspace/.metadata/.plugins/org.eclipse.pde.core/.bundle_pool/plugins/org.eclipse.equinox.simpleconfigurator_1.1.200.v20160504-1450.jar@1:start`
