Carsten Ziegeler commented on FELIX-5105:
-----------------------------------------

The strange thing is, even these scenarios work for me.
The webconsole is registering a service factory and the framework does all =
the magic to instantiate the provider service dynamically. Right now I can'=
t see a difference in our setup

> since some time web console configuration is more and more broken it seem=
s. there is for example bug related to lost localization of the configurati=
on which i encountered on my installations too. in some cases it also happe=
ns that the web console configuration is not displayed at all. in fact i wa=
s not able to display it (and so edit it) at all. i tried to debug the issu=
e but the only thing i found is that for some (to me) unknown reason the co=
nfiguration from java class is not picked up.
> in version 4.2.15-SNAPSHOT and older versions the metatype provider is im=
plemented as java class org.apache.felix.webconsole.internal.servlet.Config=
urationMetatypeSupport. that is probably the cause of the problem that the =
configuration usually does not load, maybe because of some synchronization =
issue. i noticed some information about attempts to fix it in previous vers=
ions of web console but these were just attempts as the issue persists.
> i have no idea why the metatype provider is implemented using Configurati=
onMetatypeSupport class instead of using metatype.xml file which would be m=
ore transparent and easier to manage, maybe it's for historical reason when=
 metatype implementation was not that capable as it is now.
> so i created metatype.xml file that defines the same configuration as is =
done using ConfigurationMetatypeSupport and it seems to work fine. i did no=
t remove the ConfigurationMetatypeSupport and related code though as i gues=
s it would be better done by someone who better understands the code.
> i will try to attach the patch i have if i find out how.
