Bonjour service is published with JmDNS in Equinox but not in Apache Felix

I'm facing a strange problem. I have created an OSGi bundle for JmDNS 3.1.6 and have successfully used that in Equinox to publish a service for almost two years now. I have recently migrated to Apache Felix. Unfortunately, the same JmDNS bundle, even though it installed without a problem, doesn't seem to export any services anymore. Here's the code I use to publish the service

private void publishBonjourService() {
    try {

        if (this.jmdns != null) {
            logger.config("deregistering existing service, first");
            jmdns.unregisterService(this.serviceInfo);  
        } else {
            logger.config("publishing service: \"" 
                    + bonjourServiceName + "\"");
            jmdns = JmDNS.create(InetAddress.getLocalHost(), 
                    bonjourServiceName);                
        }

        HashMap<String, Object> props = new HashMap<String, Object>();
        props.put("path", "index.html");

        this.serviceInfo = ServiceInfo.create(
                "_http._tcp.local.", 
                bonjourServiceName, 
                HttpService.WEB_SERVICE_PORT, 
                0, 
                0, 
                props);         
        jmdns.registerService(this.serviceInfo);
        logger.config("service " + bonjourServiceName 
                + " published via JmDNS");
    } catch (Exception e) {
        logger.warning("Caught exception when trying to register "
                + "Bonjour service! (" + e.getMessage() + ")");
    }
}

Using Bonjour Browser on my Mac I can see that no service is published, even though the code above executes without any exception. Here's what Felix has to say about my installed bundles.

   21|Active     |    1|Apache Felix Gogo Shell (0.8.0)

I've searched for a tutorial about how to use JmDNS within OSGi in general and haven't found anything on the net. I'd appreciate it if anyone could give me a hint as to what the problem might be or point me in the direction of a helpful resource.

Thanks in advance for your help and cheers, Georg

Edit: I've now migrated to JmDNS 3.2.2 found in the maven repository and use that in Felix. I'm no longer using the classes in javax.jmdns.impl directly as shown in my previous post (i've updated the source code listing above). However, still no luck. JmDNS seems to work somehow. I've set the logging level for JmDNS to finest - here's an excerpt from what I get.

Are you sure of the setup? The most common reason for this type of issues are: Badly configured hostname and firewall.

• The firewall is the easiest to diagnose, check that port 5353/udp is open.
• The hostname issue is most common on Linux and means that you are listening on another subnet than the one you are publishing. You can either fix the hostname of specify an IP address when creating the JmDNS instance.

How are you detecting whether the service is published or not? Are you checking from another bundle or are you checking from the Gogo shell? If the former, maybe you are seeing some class space incompatibility, which filters the service. If the latter, then I'm not sure. If you haven't done so, type "inspect s c 14" in Gogo to check the service capabilities of bundle 14 to see if it provides any services.

Perhaps I am misunderstanding, are you talking about DNS services or OSGi services? If DNS, then disregard my comments.
