Virgo / Equinox console usage [message #1049354] Thu, 25 April 2013 14:49 Go to next message
Eclipse UserFriend
I am a bit confused with the Virgo console, it seems like most of the commands described in the user guide don't work as expected, for example (1st example in section 8.2):

osgi> vsh:plan list
gogo: CommandNotFoundException: Command not found: vsh:plan
osgi>


Some of the commands in Table 8.1 work (packages)if I issue them without the vhs: prefix; but others don't:
osgi> vhs:plan
gogo: CommandNotFoundException: Command not found: vhs:plan
osgi> plan
gogo: CommandNotFoundException: Command not found: plan
osgi>


What's the story here?

I have a subsidiary question: what is the simplest way to trigger the refresh of a bundle from the Windows command line (batch mode, i.e. without having to open a Virgo console first)?

Thanks!

Hello Franck,

Which Virgo distribution are you using? These commands are not available in all distributions.

Ditto here.
Running 3.6.1 on 64bit Linux box running OpenJDK 1.6

vsh:par list seems to work.

osgi> vsh:par list
Name Version State
org.eclipse.virgo.apps.repository 3.6.1.RELEASE ACTIVE

vsh:par examine comes back saying "Incorrect number of parameters"

osgi> vsh:par examine org.eclipse.virgo.apps.repository 3.6.1.RELEASE
Command par examine: Incorrect number of parameters
osgi>

I am hoping something basic like this is a user bug =)

vsh:par is unknown for me on Windows 7 running Oracle JDK 7_011.
It isn't listed in the "help" output, nor is any other vhs command.

I also can't figure out how to provide bundle arguments to commands such as "headers", I keep getting "can't coerce xxx" errors.

vsh:bundle examine <number> comes back with
java.lang.NullPointerException while executing command 'bundle examine 157': 'null'

I can open the webui and view the bundle details.
But that is not an option in a production environment where the most likely option I would have would be terminal access.

Is this a bug ?

Hello,

@Franck The console commands are available only in the user region. Most probably you are connecting to the telnet of the kernel region and therefore cannot see the commands. If you like to use them, you should enable telnet in the user region (modify telnet configuration in repository/ext/osgi.console.properties - set telnet.enabled to true) and connect to port 2501. The "headers" subcommand is used as follows: vhs:bundle headers <bundle_id>, where bundle_id is the number of the bundle

@Alexei This really seems to be a bug. I saw that examine in some other contexts is not working too. Please open a bug for this issue. We will investigate further the problem.

Nope, I am connecting alternatively to one of the other console and I am having similar issues in both (the command sets do differ somewhat):

osgi> vhs:bundle headers 3
gogo: CommandNotFoundException: Command not found: vhs:bundle
osgi>

Hmmm, just discovered that some commands do work for certain bundles:

osgi> bundle 142
gogo: IllegalArgumentException: Cannot coerce bundle(Long) to any of [(Bundle[])]
osgi> bundle 3
ch.qos.logback.classic_1.0.7.v20121108-1250 [3]
Id=3, Status=RESOLVED Data Root=C:\virgo-tomcat-3.6.1\work\org.eclipse.osgi\bundles\3\data

Bundle 142 was loaded through a plan, could this be the reason?
Is there any way to address bundles loaded through a plan?

Ooops, my bad, I was connecting to the wrong console this time.

So problem solved it seems, here is the wrapup for me:
- forget the vsh: prefix, it doesn't seem needed
- can't coerce args etc doesn't necessarily mean that you are using the wrong syntax, you get that message if the bundle isn't found in the region
- the two regions don't have the same set of commands - e.g. plan is only available in the user region

Moving on to trying to refresh a bundle by name from the command line...

Hello,

I've got the same error while running plan start command :

Incorrect number of parameters

So I cloned the virgo kernet codes on github and wrote a patch (note : I can't share your my commit link as it's on github and I don't have more than 5 msg to provide a non eclipse links)...

A pull request as just been opened...

Could you tell me if this patch is OK from your expert view ?

Thank you Wink

The 5th message to share my github patch on next msg !

Eclipse forum should remove this policy "You can only use links to eclipse.org sites while you have fewer than 5 messages." ...

Hi Mathilde,

thanks for taking the time to dig into the topic and to provide a patch. From a first glimpse it looks fine.

Before your contribution can be accepted by the project, you need to create and electronically sign the Eclipse Foundation Contributor License Agreement (CLA).
More information can be found here.

Hello Florian,

well I already create and electronically sign the CLA through my account but with the new eclipse web UI I'm not able to find it in my account (am I blind ?)...

When trying to resign it from my account by clicking "First sign a Contributor License Agreement." from https://www.eclipse.org/contribute/ I'm redirected to my account page ...

So I'm a little lost with the new eclipse foundation web UI. If you have any tips tell me.

Cheers

Hi Mathilde,

sorry, I don't know the new UI either and didn't find a way to check my CLA, either. I propose to create a Bugzilla ticket for this change. Within the ticket you can easily see if everything is in place when you look for the green check mark before the work CLA next to your name.

Thanks again for your time,
florian

I created the ticket on bugzilla :

https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=437526

And I can see my CLA is OK from there.

Thank you

Hello,

I just see that the patch is planned to be delivered on Virgo 3.6.4... Is there any release date scheduled for that version ?

Thank you

Hi Mathilde,

sorry for not shipping your patch with 3.6.3.RELEASE. I plan to take care of your contribution this week.

Thanks to Violetta we have an approval for Tomcat 7.0.61[1] which was the major item planned for 3.6.4.RELEASE.

Regards,
florian
