Any hints on setting up the target platform? [message #1407052]

Hey guys,
I want to get to know Gyrex sadly I wasn't able to setup a proper target platform yet using the latest stable version (1.3).
The Wiki page seems to be outdated as well, since the version mentioned there is 1.1

Using the url http://download.eclipse.org/gyrex/1.3/ it says it's missing org.apache.common.httpclient 3.1.0 to resolve org.apache.solr.client.solrj

I am using Eclipse Luna with PDE... any help would be appreciated Smile

Thanks in advance,
Alex

Unfortunately, the wiki pages sometimes mention old versions but most
of the time they should still apply. Do you get this error at target
platform resolution or when starting the server?

The Solr dependency component hasn't been updated in a while. We
included a newer version of the http client in Gyrex now but missed to
update the Solr dependency to the newer version. This is planned for
one of the next iterations. Do you plan on using Solr? If not, you can
safely ignore the errors. Otherwise we should be able to find a
workaround.

Hello Gunnar,

I get the error during target platform resolution.
For now I don't plan on using Solr but anyway I don't get a working target platform because of this error. I just tried it again on my PC at work (running Kepler), I get another error (meh, i'm to new to the forum to post links directly... http:// imgur.com/GkPigY5).
Have I done something wrong with trying to setup the target platform? I used an empty target platform and just the p2 site as you see in the screenshot...

Thanks so far,
Alex

Can you try with the options as schon in the screenshot?

- uncheck "Include required software"
- check "Include all environments"

I sugest to also select the software site in the target platform editor
and click "Update" once in order ot force PDE to reload its content.

Great! Let me know if you have other questions or feedback about the
tutorials on the wiki.

Hi Gunnar,

I hope it's okay if I use this thread for further questions? I followed the "Develop OSGi DS" tutorial and it's all working "okay", I'm able to start up a basic server the component also starts. It noticed a lot of messages that bundles couldn't be resolved, because the guava libraries version 15 were missing. After adding this library to the target platform it works quite well, the applications (for the lack of a better name) in the RAP management console were available then. Some components didn't resolve but these were mostly tests and Solr. I noticed one bundle of jetty not resolving:
Quote:

gogo: BundleException: The bundle "org.eclipse.jetty.spdy.http.server_9.1.5.v20140505 [161]" could not be resolved. Reason: Missing Constraint: Import-Package: org.eclipse.jetty.spdy.http; version="[9.0.0,10.0.0)"

Last question for now: Is there any additional learning material beyond the tutorials in the wiki?

Alex

You are right. It's not included when using the slicer in target
platforms. I've fixed it in our maintenance builds. You should give it
a try:

That's the missing SPDY package in Jetty. I believe I have a bug open
with Jetty to fix it. Will check again.

We only have the once listed on:
https://wiki.eclipse.org/Gyrex/Learning_Material

But if you let me know what you are looking for in particular, we might
be able to create additional ones.
