HELP: Activiti on Apache Karaf

[deepyou]

Hi all, We're following the example showed in the "Activiti in Action" Book ( 9.3.2 Using Apache Karaf as an OSGi container) to upload activiti-egine as Bundle in OSGi containter (apache Karaf). We already know that there is a project "Activiti-Karaf" that is a bundle with activiti engine and karaf.
But we need to learn how to deploy activiti-engine as bundle in our OSGi container so we need to upload Activiti as Bundle.
We tried to follow the example in the Book written by Tijs Rademakers but we have a lot of problems. It seem that the karaf container cannot connect to the activiti H2 DataBase (we suppose).

Can someone indicate a step by step tutorial to deploy activiti-engine in OSGi containter? I think that Activiti-doc in this case is not so rich.

I post the exception that we have after we try to deploy the activiti-engine bundle and try to start it on Apache Karaf.

Can someone help Us?

Best Regards
Gaetano.

Hi Tijs,
Solved, the problem was the version of Apache Karaf, the example showed in the book "Activiti in Action" works with version 2.2.9 of Apache Karaf.
Thank you for your support, Thank you for your wondeful Book, Thanks to Activiti Developer Community.

Now our next step is deploy Activiti Engine and Activiti processes in our OSGi container.
Thanks again, at every step Activiti-Engine seems fit our needs for our technologies.
Best Regards.
