tagManager.resolve(tagPath) is returning null without logging into Publish?

Hi All,

I have written a servlet which will be executed when below url is called:

http://localhost:4503/content/experience-fragments/TestProject/en-us/banners.searchConditionalContent.json?tags=test/sources/512

This url fetch the correct data based on the query written in servlet service. Now on publish server, the data is fetched only if I am logged into Publish server through crxde. If I am not logged into the publisher through crx de the servlet is not responding the expected data. why?

I have created a system user for this service/servlet and used this session.

while debugging I found that :

While executing Tag tag = tagManager.resolve(tagPath); I am getting tag = null, where tagpath is /etc/tags/project/test/sources/512 which is published to the publisher. and I checked that this tag is available in the publisher. The respective content is also published.

Any pointers to find this? or debugging.

Thanks,

Manasi
