Re: Re: "Address already in use" using Pax Exam

[Martin Lichtin <li...@yahoo.com>]

I've seen a similar issue and at some point opened 
https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/KARAF-2348
With the versions I use it's quite obvious that Pax-Exam does not wait 
for the container to shut down completely.

PS: My workaround is to wait a bit for the ssh port to become available 
and only then return from the pax-exam config() method.
