>                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FELIX-738
>             Project: Felix
>          Issue Type: Bug
>          Components: Web Console
>         Environment: Linux box without internet access (firewalled intranet)
>            Reporter: Mike Pfaff
>            Assignee: Felix Meschberger
>            Priority: Minor

> Log entries:
> [...]
> RepositoryAdminImpl: Exception creating repository - java.net.ConnectException: Operation timed out
> RepositoryAdminImpl: Ignoring repository http://oscar-osgi.sourceforge.net/obr2/repository.xml
> [...]
> I know that the repo URL is outdated, but even with the new URL http://felix.apache.org/obr/releases.xml we would have the same problem, as the box has no internet access.
> Possible solutions and ideas:
> - Make it possible to disable the lookup and/or the entire "bundle repository"  bundle by some config value.
> - Set the timeout to a lower value (maybe 5 or 10 seconds)
> - Is it really necessary for the "bundle repository" bundle to access the repo URL when you go to the "Bundle" web console tab? (It makes sense for the "OSGi Repository" web console tab).
> - Stopping/Uninstalling the "bundle repository" bundle poses some kind of chicken/egg problem, as one would have to use the "Bundle" web console tab - which is where the problem occurs - for that.
