Adding an @Activate to a DS bundle causes the bundle not to load

[Steinar Bang <sb...@dod.no>]

Platform: Java 1.8, karaf 4.1.3

I have the following DS component that exposes a Servlet to the Pax Web
Whiteboard Extender:
 https://github.com/steinarb/sonar-collector/blob/master/sonar-collector-webhook/src/main/java/no/priv/bang/sonar/collector/webhook/SonarCollectorServlet.java#L55

The component starts fine, and exposes a Servlet service that is picked
up by the whiteboard extender, and as far as I can tell, it does what it
is expected to do (receive POSTs from SonarQube/SonarCloud and store
build statistics in a PostgreSQL database).

However, if I add an empty activate method, like so:
 @Component(service={Servlet.class}, property={"alias=/sonar-collector"} )
 public class SonarCollectorServlet extends HttpServlet {
     ...
     @Activate
     public void activate(Map<String, Object> config) {
     }
     ...
 }

then the component fails to load, because of missing dependencies:
 karaf@root()> feature:repo-add mvn:no.priv.bang.sonar.sonar-collector/sonar-collector-webhook/LATEST/xml/features
 Adding feature url mvn:no.priv.bang.sonar.sonar-collector/sonar-collector-webhook/LATEST/xml/features
 karaf@root()> feature:install sonar-collector-webhook

 karaf@root()>

If remove the "@Activate" annotation, the component loads again.

Does anyone know what might cause this?

The full error message from karaf.log below.

Thanks!
