Now that the dependencies are satisfied, we can install and start the Web Console. Remember to install the Web Console bundle on the Tier 1 Services start level:
g! bundlelevel -i 5
g! start $mvnrepo/org/apache/felix/org.apache.felix.webconsole/3.1.2/
org.apache.felix.webconsole-3.1.2-bare.jar
The Web Console is now started. We'll go through an overview of its functionality next.
Note
The web management console uses the OSGi Config Admin Service for its configuration. Refer to the Web Console online documentation for more information on how to customize it at http://felix.apache.org/site/apache-felix-web-console.html.
