I think this bundle deployment must be failing due to unavailability of javax.ws.rs bundle which is imported package in this bundle . I am also deploying

cxf-dosgi-ri-singlebundle-distribution-1.3-SNAPSHOT prior to deploying this bundle .

The Singlebundle is deploying fine and is also started but I do not see any trace in the log about the javax.ws.rs package which is exported from the

cxf-dosgi-ri-singlebundle-distribution-1.3-SNAPSHOT .

Am I doing anything crazy here? My understanding is Jboss OSGI does not provide implementation of  distributed services and I can deploy something like CXF DOSGI to support remore services.

I am using the Web profile of the application server , which I believe supports Javax.ws.rs .

This is very critical for my project . I would appreciate any insights in resolving this issue.

Thanks

Sunil

I could resolve this issue by removing Jboss JaxRS entries in the server configuration . After that the bundle was able to wire with the jaxrs packages from CXF.

Thanks
