Re: Karaf 1.2.0 console not sending cr on Linux
Posted by Chris Custine <ch...@gmail.com>.
I am fairly certain that this relates to the Mina/SSHD issue here:
https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SSHD-67
which is also tracked at Karaf here:
http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FELIX-1939
This should be fixed in SSHD soon, but in the mean time there is a patch
attached to the first issue if you want to patch and build SSHD from SVN.

Karaf 1.2.0 console not sending cr on Linux
Posted by "John E. Conlon" <jc...@verticon.com>.
Doing a ssh to a karaf running in as a service presents a console that
does not seem to send carriage returns. This makes the UI text jagged
and basically unuseable.
Here is the command I use to open a remote session.
ssh -p 8101 -l karaf tracker1
This works in 1.0.0. Has something changed and now needs to be
explicitly configured?
thanks,
John

Re: Karaf fails to start as a service on an Arm processor
Posted by "John E. Conlon" <jc...@verticon.com>.
You may have inferred from my other thread(Console not sending cr on
Linux), that I did get a service running, but it was not on the plug.
It was on a "PC Engines Alix-1c" http://www.pcengines.ch/alix1c.htm
with 256MB, and an internal 2GB Compact Flash drive.
That was the backup platform waiting in the wings in case I had problems
with the plug. I already had a bootable thumbdrive with the 9.10 ubuntu
on it. Installed the Ubuntu CLI, Open JDK headless JRE and Karaf in a
very straight forward way.
BTW - what is the best practice for installing a Karaf that will be used
as a service - as root or as it's own user?
Project timelines forced that alternative for now, perhaps around the
time you get your plug I can rejoin the attack on putting up a decent
plug platform for karaf? The key I think is bootable tumbdrive with a
fast booting slim os.
cheers,
John

This is really good info John. Should save me some time when I finally get
mine. I ordered the ProSyst card as well but I would like to see all of the
open source projects running well also. When I get mine up and running we
should compare notes and I will create some docs on the wiki. If you come

Suspected so. Yesterday was a plunge ahead and temporarily ignore
reality kind of day.
I have been developing my bundles (based on OSGi WireAdmin/Config Admin
services ) and have been testing them on a Karaf working in an 256M
Ubuntu CLI based virtualbox vm running on my intel dev machine. Karaf
is very cool and easy to work with and the docs are straightforward and
to the point. But now I need to move the virtual to the real world. I
hope to do it on the plug, but if I encounter too much friction I can
always go with a small intel based box as well.

Time permitting I may look into this. Thanks for the tip.
I know the Service Wrapper works well and there are a lot of features,
but is it possible to just start Karaf in the background?

So so...
The os shipping on the plug is somewhat of a hodgepodge and needs some
holes patched up to make it more usable.
See:
http://plugcomputer.org/plugwiki/index.php/New_Plugger_How_To
Even with the patches the plug is very slow to boot and starting Karaf
(until the prompt) takes around 25 seconds!

My experiences, and the comments from the above blog writer, make me
think that a clean OS install is the way to go.

There is a long backlog for shipping the plug so our earlier prototyping
was done on the sister product to the plug the OpenRD client. (A plug
mother board with lots of I/O options.) Then I used J9 and ProSyst
mBedded Server. (As you probably already know the ProSyst dev kit is
available as a buying option along with the plug. Price is ~$39. But
the ProSyst run times are evaluation only.)
But for Java, I prefer to work in SE JVMs and found the J9 Foundation
Profile too constraining. Although ProSyst marketing and support were
helpful, here too I prefer to work with a larger community based
OpenSource OSGi framework like Felix or Equinox.
As for now the Java on the Plug is an OpenJDK headless JRE. I simply
(after all the fixes noted above) installed a headless JRE on the plug
with a:
apt-get update openjdk-6-jre-headless
command.
happy holidays,
John

Re: Karaf fails to start as a service on an Arm processor
Posted by Chris Custine <ch...@gmail.com>.
The service wrapper doesn't have a libwrapper.so compiled for Arm so this
isn't going to work at the moment. I have a SheevaPlug coming next week so
I will certainly be doing something about this, but in the mean time if you
want to use the service wrapper you will have to get the native source for
Tanuki Service Wrapper 3.2.3 and set up a cross compiler for Arm on a Linux
machine. I'll try to add this to Karaf some time in the next month or two.
Just out of curiosity, other than the service wrapper is everything else
running OK? Also, are you running this on the ProSyst mBedded Server with
J9 or are you using Felix and have all of the Java bits installed manually?
Thanks,
Chris
