I'm struggling to get this to work. When I manually create a
LogManager.factory.config configuration (through the web console), the
configuration appears on the "Configurations" drop down list. Also, a
.config file is created in the
sling/config/o/a/s/c/log/LogManager/factory/config directory, called
dc2c6dfb-47c4-40c8-bf55-1651bb557504.config.
The configuration also works: The custom logging I've set up is working.
Now, to avoid having to set this up manually each time I deploy my
application, I thought I could just put that file in my bundle, and
loading it as initial content under
/apps/mybundle/install/dc2c6dfb-47c4-40c8-bf55-1651bb557504.config
Granted, the file gets picked up by JCRInstaller. In the
aforementioned directory I now get an empty *folder* called dc2c6dfb.
OK, maybe JCRInstaller chokes on the dashes (-) in the filename, so I
removed those, renaming the file in my bundle to
c2c6dfb47c440c8bf551651bb557504.config
When installing the bundle again, the file pops up in the correct
directory - but not on the drop down list on
/system/console/configMgr. And the configuration is not working.
What am I doing wrong? (I'm not really experienced with OSGI config stuff).

Yes I think so, as long as it's unique.

Will do. Did I understand correctly if I say that the 'a' after the
dash can in fact be any random string?

Cool - could you eventually add that as an example at
http://sling.apache.org/site/jcr-installer-jcrjcrinstall-and-osgiinstaller.html
where it says "A node named like o.a.s.foo.bar-a..." ?

Aha - THAT's the clue!
Creating a node at
/apps/mybundle/install/org.apache.sling.commons.log.LogManager.factory.config-something.json,
with jcr:primaryType=sling:OsgiConfig did what I wanted.
Thanks, both of you!

RE: Loading configuration files
Posted by CP...@t-systems.com.
Hi Bertrand,
Can I ask how you might set the "runmode" of a server. The Sling 5
instance I have doesn't seem to have the org.apache.sling.runmode
bundle. The CQ5 instance I have does, but I have looked for an OSGi
configuration page for that bundle but can't find one. I do see the
RunMode page in the felix console with the mode set to "author".
There is just a TODO in the documentation for this feature
(http://sling.apache.org/site/jcr-installer-jcrjcrinstall-and-osgiinstal
ler.html)
Kind regards,
Chris Pilsworth

The folder name has to be "install" with the default jcrinstall config
used in Sling (that's DEFAULT_FOLDER_NAME_REGEXP in JcrInstaller.java:
.*/install$).
Or install.foo where foo is a runmode that's currently active, as set
by the org.apache.sling.runmode bundle - this allows you to have
different configs based on run mode.
So that would be
/apps/mybundle/install/org....
and it's correct that the node that holds the config has to be of
sling:OsgiConfig node type.
Note that dashes in the sling:OsgiConfig node name have a special
meaning, they are used to separate between the factory and
configuration PIDs, a node named like o.a.s.foo.bar-a for example uses
"a" as its factory PID, and "o.a.s.foo.bar" as its configuration PID .

No, but I think the name is not important, the nodetype
sling:OsgiConfig is the marker here. (@Bertrand: could you clarify?)

No, as mentioned above, it should have the service pid, which in this
case is "org.apache.sling.config.log.LogManager.factory.config". If
you look at the Felix web console you'll find it as PID at the bottom
for copy&paste. The uuid you used is only an implementation detail of
how Felix persists the configuration on the filesystem. Try
/apps/mybundle/config/org.apache.sling.config.log.LogManager.factory
(using the sling:OsgiConfig nodetype)

Alex
