Description

I generated a Karaf Feature using the karaf-feature-archetype. This will add the following configuration to the POM file.

<build>
    <pluginManagement>
        <plugins>
            <plugin>
                <groupId>org.apache.karaf.tooling</groupId>
                <artifactId>karaf-maven-plugin</artifactId>
                <version>4.0.7</version>
                <extensions>true</extensions>
            </plugin>
        </plugins>
    </pluginManagement>
    <plugins>
        <plugin>
            <groupId>org.apache.karaf.tooling</groupId>
            <artifactId>karaf-maven-plugin</artifactId>

            <configuration>
                <startLevel>50</startLevel>
                <aggregateFeatures>true</aggregateFeatures>
                <resolver>(obr)</resolver>
                <checkDependencyChange>true</checkDependencyChange>
                <failOnDependencyChange>false</failOnDependencyChange>
                <logDependencyChanges>true</logDependencyChanges>
                <overwriteChangedDependencies>true</overwriteChangedDependencies>
            </configuration>
        </plugin>
    </plugins>
</build>

The feature can be built but on installation the feature validation fails.

Caused by: org.xml.sax.SAXParseException: cvc-complex-type.3.2.2: Attribute 'resolver' is not allowed to appear in element 'feature'.

Basically here are two issues:

• Karaf Maven Plugin builds a feature with invalid configuration
• The karaf-feature-archetype contains invalid configuration

So to solve this Karaf Maven plugin should be enhanced and the resolver tag should be deleted within the archetype.
