I still seem to be having problems getting it working. The problem did not go away. I still get the same error. Would anyone know of a simple step-by-step tutorial for using Drools in a Felix OSGi environment? Preferrably within Eclipse and with Pax Runner. Any help would be very much appreciated.

Hi Aerv, soon I will also have to launch Drools within an OSGI environment, but I am not there yet. But within another context (jBPM) I had some troubles looking similar you are having. It had something to do with the classloading. jBPM did not provide any OSGI-support, whereas Droos does, so I am not sure if this fits, but I had to wrap here and there some classes so they got pulled in by the right ClassLoader (OSGI uses many class-loaders). final ClassLoader origCl = Thread.currentThread().getContextClassLoader(); final ClassLoader cl = <YOUR_CLASS_YOU_WANT_TO_USE>.class.getClassLoader(); Thread.currentThread().setContextClassLoader(cl); ... use the class ... Thread.currentThread().setContextClassLoader(origCl); Maybe this helps, Cheers, Rob.
