Blueprint properties placeholder - properties

Question

Here is my blueprint:
<blueprint xmlns="http://www.osgi.org/xmlns/blueprint/v1.0.0"
xmlns:cm="http://aries.apache.org/blueprint/xmlns/blueprint-cm/v1.0.0"
xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xsi:schemaLocation="http://www.osgi.org/xmlns/blueprint/v1.0.0 https://www.osgi.org/xmlns/blueprint/v1.0.0/blueprint.xsd http://camel.apache.org/schema/blueprint https://camel.apache.org/schema/blueprint/camel-blueprint.xsd">
<bean class="ph.edu.dlsu.esb.CogMockProcessor" id="CogMockProcessor"/>
<cm:property-placeholder id="cogmock.properties"
persistent-id="custom.properties" update-strategy="reload">
<cm:default-properties>
<cm:property name="cogmock.host" value="//localhost"/>
<cm:property name="cogmock.port" value="8989"/>
<cm:property name="cogmock.path"
value="/external/grade/updatestudentgrade"/>
<cm:property name="cogmock.protocol" value="http"/>
<cm:property name="cogmock.OpenId.Token"
value="9GC1hnEeNIWVbehmxxjUwkj1Wcx2Y-P7SgOUZvVUzkM"/>
</cm:default-properties>
</cm:property-placeholder>
<camelContext id="_mockcontext" xmlns="http://camel.apache.org/schema/blueprint">
<route id="_route1">
<from id="_from1" uri="restlet:http://localhost:{{cogmock.port}}/external/grade/updatestudentgrade?restletMethod=POST">
<description>Mock the Camu Change of Grade API</description>
</from>
<process id="_process1" ref="CogMockProcessor"/>
<log id="_log1" message="I'm here"/>
</route>
</camelContext>
</blueprint>
Here is my fuse-karaf/etc/custom.properties
#
# You can place any customized configuration here.
#
cogmock.protocol=http
cogmock.host=//localhost
cogmock.port=8989
cogmock.path=/external/grade/updatestudentgrade
cogmock.OpenId.Token=9GC1hnEeNIWVbehmxxjUwkj1Wcx2Y-P7SgOUZvVUzkM
It Builds successfully but when I bundle:install -s ... I get:
Unable to start container for blueprint bundle CogMock/1.0.0.SNAPSHOT
If I take out the {{cogmock.port}} everything works fine.
What am I missing?

update-strategy="reload" can be added to your blueprint XML only when you use xmlns:cm="http://aries.apache.org/blueprint/xmlns/blueprint-cm/v1.1.0" or later. It doesn't work with xmlns:cm="http://aries.apache.org/blueprint/xmlns/blueprint-cm/v1.0.0".
And to be clear persistent-id attribute means PID, which (when using etc/ configuration) is created from files with *.cfg extension. So if you have persistent-id="cogmock", you need $FUSE_HOME/etc/cogmock.cfg file with your properties.
