- The artifact JAR I need doesn't have OSGi entries in its manifest
- I get a "No impl service available" error with any shell command
- I get a "No LogReaderService available" error with the log command
- I can't add/connect to an OBR

- A. Eclipse, Maven, and Felix
- B. Where to Go from Here?
- C. Pop Quiz Answers
Using a Web Container in an OSGi framework improves the servlet development experience by extending the Http Service with JSP and WAR support.
In this chapter, we've looked a little closer at Web Containers and implemented the bookshelf-webapp. We've also improved the graphical interface to the bookshelf-service.
By now, you should know the following:
- What Web Containers are and the benefits they give
- About Pax Web and its extensions
- How to install Pax Web and its extensions
- How to register JSPs with the Web Container
- How to interact with a service from the JSP code
