"Uninstall bundle is not supported in the static installer" when trying to use feature wrap

[Lukasz Lech <l....@ringler.ch>]

Hello,

After upgrading to Karaf 4.2.11 I've found an unpleasant surprise of finding out, that the karaf doesn't start with the message
'Unknown protocol wrap'

I've found out that I should be expected to use feature wrap: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/35289763/karaf-pax-exam-fails-with-unknown-protocol-wrap

I've added that requirement to one of my projects (which solved the problem and the karaf startet correctly)
however in the 2nd project, where I'm also using 'wrap:' I get mysterious error:

"Uninstall bundle is not supported in the static installer"

I've found no workaroud for it, the only possibility is to remove the  apparently required line:
<feature prerequisite="true">wrap</feature>

So now I'm puzzled, what I'm expected to do.
Without feature:wrap the karaf doesn't start.
With, the karaf verify plugin fails.
The worst thing is, it doesn't predicably fail, because I can't see a significant difference between those 2 problems...

Any help appreciated

Best regards,
Lukasz Lech

Hi,

Do you use static or dynamic kind of distribution ? Do you have a simple pom to reproduce it ? I can take a look.

Wrap is required as soon as you use wrap protocol in a feature.

I don’t see reason changed in 4.2.11.

Regards
JB
