No bundle plugin resource available to handle deployment for bundle type

The first time I tried deploying a bundle with a fresh server and JBoss Operations Network agent I got the following error :

java.lang.Exception:No bundle plugin resource available to handle deployment for bundle type [BundleType[id=10001,name=Ant Bundle]]. Ensure the bundle plugin is deployed and its resource is imported into inventory.

I restarted the agent and everything was fine.

If I can reproduce this its time to login to Bugzilla.  I thought I'd post here first in case anyone Googles the Exception though.

Happy coding

PAE kernel

I use virtual machines a lot and really need more memory (more than 3.7GiB.)

Unfortunately I'm still running 32 bit Fedora 14.  I tried the 64 bit version, but had some problems with Firefox and Eclipse.



I've put off upgrading because of Gnome 3.  I tried out the Live Disc for 15.  It didn't convince me.

Since then I've heard enough good things about Gnome Shell that I'm willing to bite the bullet.  But just to play it safe I've been waiting until I have a few days with no meetings.  So meanwhile...

I added memory and installed the PAE kernel.

sudo yum install kernel-PAE

Pretty simple and my machine immediately recognized the extra memory.

SELinux and WebEx playback

While trying to watch a WebEx recording I got only sound and an SELinux alert.

I had to set SELinux to "Permissive" :

# setenforce Permissive 

A small price to pay.

The WebEx, btw, was Kris Verlaen's presentation on jBPM5.

JBUG ATL or Atlanta JBoss Users Group

How to change the ports that JBoss uses

The easiest way is to simply pass a command line argument. This takes care of any desktop/laptop/development purposes.

run -Djboss.service.binding.set=ports-01
run -Djboss.service.binding.set=ports-02

 For more complete changes check out the official docs under, 1.7 The Service Binding Manager .

Where did the drools-api.jar go?

JBoss BRMS 5.2 is out so naturally I started a new project in it.

The first thing I noticed after updating my pom.xml was that there was no drools-api-version.jar.

All of the api classes are now in knowledge-api-version.jar.  Be sure to update your pom!

Architecting Solutions

Yesterday was my one year anniversary with Red Hat specifically with the JBoss the middleware division.  I am a Middleware Solutions Architect or "SA."

I haven't blogged much since joining Red Hat.  The drop in output is partially due to time constraints.  In the past year I have been in
Atlanta, Boston, Canton, GA, Franklin, TN, Ft. Lauderdale, Knoxville, Memphis, Miami, Mt. View, Nashville, Orlando, Pittsburgh, Raleigh, San Francisco, Tampa, and Washington D.C. 

Another reason for the reduced output is that I had not written my disclaimer post either.  This is the disclaimer post.

I have largely avoided opinionated posts focusing instead on solutions to real problems.  However, I don't get my hands dirty in code on a daily basis any more.  I still plan to focus on real solutions, but I might add some opinion, observations and predictions.  So be forewarned, the opinions that you read here belong to a Red Hat employee.

Red Hat is a great place to work, btw.
