Solved

I have recently started working with CQ5.6.1 - hot fix 1.I have been creating a slideshow component for a customer:- The slides for the customers slideshow must is composed of images.- The source for the slideshow is a pdf. We have set up a 2 process step workflow - The workflow is used on a pdf in the DAM:1, Create sub assets2, Run another workflow on each "Original" subasset path. (fx page 19:  /content/dam/ProductName/cq5_howto_website.pdf/subassets/page19.pdf)The second workflow does the following:1, Create web enabled image with arguments: dimension:1200:800,quality:100,mimetype:image/jpeg2, Create web enabled image with arguments: dimension:1920:1200,quality:100,mimetype:image/jpegThe results look as I would expect, at least the rendition names, fx page 19:/content/dam/ProductName/cq5_howto_website.pdf/subassets/page19.pdf/jcr:content/renditions/cq5dam.web.1200.800.jpegcontent/dam/ProductName/cq5_howto_website.pdf/subassets/page19.pdf/jcr:content/renditions/cq5dam.web.1920.1200.j

Hi,I would like a hand with this task.I want to add Components to the sidekick, I am following this tip:http://blogs.adobe.com/contentmanagement/2011/10/25/how-to-add-components-to-the-sidekick-without-updating-the-sidekick/But is not reflecting to the sidekick the component that I add to the design configuration in the repository if I do not delete the browser cache and refresh the page.I do not know if there is another easy way to do this.My requirement is create an accordion component, is created with a parsys to permit to include accordionitem to the accordion component, and the requirement is that the accordionitem appears in the sidekick automatically when a accordion is added to the page.Thank you for the help.Miguel.

This post is an extension of Bernard's post here:http://help-forums.adobe.com/content/adobeforums/en/experience-manager-forum/adobe-experience-manager.topic.html/forum__zngv-hello_id_liketo.htmlHe marked his post 'solved', when in fact his VLT question wasn't solved - he just found a workaround with curl.I too have a number of problems with the VLT import function, so here is a restatement of my current problem.According to the VLT import help the import syntax is:import -v|-s|--sysview <uri> <local-path> <jcr-path>What is the relationship between the <jcr-path> in the command line and the path in <filter root=""/>?Consider the following cases:1 - Import works fine with the <jcr-path> empty and a 'normal' filter path, e.g. "/content/something/somethingelse" that represents a path in the Vault.2 - I have found no way of usefully combining the jcr-path and the filter path.Two absolute paths are concatenated and the import just goes around in circles.An

Hi,from my understanding when 5.5 does not support image cropping in chrome, when I try to crop an image with chrome what I notice is that the image disappears in either free crop mode or aspect mode this however works in firefox. My understanding is that this issue would be resolved in 5.6.1 and so recently we upgraded to 5.6.1, however when I tried to crop using chrome again after the cq5 upgrade we still get the same problem. We are using an image component and all cropping is done after the image is dropped into the image component. I have checked all the logs but there does not seem to be anything obviously wrong, any help would be greatly appreciated.Chris 

I have two questions:1) When I apply settings via the felix console, they get saved as nodes of nt:file with a jcr:content node underneath. I see everywhere else to use osgiconfig nodes instead. Which one of the two is preferred when setting these configurations using curl2) I have issues creating nodes underneath a parent node of the format: config.author or map.publish if there already is a config or map node. Sling is just mapping my request to config / map, rather than config.author / map.publish. Anyone any idea how I can work around this?Many thanks,Katrien

Please help , what's wrong with "Dialog Path" property of my "Dialog Participant Step"?first I can't modify it to dialog level like the doc(http://dev.day.com/docs/en/cq/current/workflows/wf-ref.html) mentioned that "The following value is used for the Dialog Path property: /etc/workflow/dialogs/EmailWatch/dialog" , but only I can set it to "/etc/workflow/dialogs/myComponent" like this. Below is myComponent json format:{"jcr:createdBy":"vi.lang","allowedParents":["*/parsys"],"jcr:created":"Mon Oct 14 2013 02:36:27 GMT-0700","jcr:primaryType":"cq:Component","dialog":{"title":"Video Approval Dialog","xtype":"dialog","jcr:primaryType":"cq:Dialog","items":{"jcr:primaryType":"cq:WidgetCollection","common":{"title":"Common","jcr:primaryType":"cq:Panel","items":{"jcr:primaryType":"cq:WidgetCollection","isApproval":{"fieldLabel":"Video Approval","xtype":"selection","name":"./metaData/isApproval","allowEmpty":"false","type":"select","value":"yes","jcr:primaryType":"cq:Widget","fieldDescription"

I'm trying to add a custom button to the sidekick that simply launches a dialog. I'm having a weird issue where the JS to add the button doesn't work (no JS errors in the console) unless I remove the content finder by removing /cf#/ from the URL. Obviously, I'm talking about author mode.There are a number of ways to add to the sidekick. I did so by replacing the default include of init.jsp (in head.jsp) with this file, which is my own init.jsp in my page component:<%@include file="/apps/myapp/components/global.jsp" %> <cq:include script="/libs/wcm/core/components/init/init.jsp" /> <c:if test="${isAuthor}"> <script type="text/javascript"> (function() { CQ.wcm.Sidekick.DEFAULT_ACTIONS.push(CQ.wcm.Sidekick.MY_CONFIG); })(); </script> </c:if>Don't worry about the "isAuthor" part. We are using a framework that enables that to work, using a bean pattern. Again, this works just fine to add the button to the sidekick unless I have the content finder availabl

Hi, I am a newbie with CQ5. I am trying to follow the exact same steps in the below link. But for some reason am getting an error.http://helpx.adobe.com/adobe-cq/using/creating-cq-web-application-uses.htmlFor some reason, it's not able to pick up the bundle. I am getting the error."Only a type can be imported. com.adobe.test.DataService resolves to a package".Please don't tell me to change the *.bnd file. As per the article I made the bundle using eclipse not in CQ5. I can't find the bnd file in that.Its been very frustrating, I tried everything but in vain.Any help is appreciated.Thanks,Sudhin

the documentation page at http://docs.adobe.com/docs/en/cq/5-6-1/administering/config_undo.html suggests modifying the undo list in /libs - it seems that's not a good practice since changes in libs get overwritten by an upgrade of AEM. Is there a better way to extend the undo list with an overlay in apps instead? 

Hi,I have installed AEM 6.0 in tomcat application server. As per my understanding, in order to integrate the dispatcher need to install apache web server and configure the dispatcher module.visitors <--> dispatcher (in apache web server, port is different from tomcat) <--> CQ5 (in tomcat app server)Is it possible to integrate dispatcher in tomcat app server so that the flow will be as below.visitors <--> dispacther and cq (in tomcat app server) will share the same port

Any one here has any migration experience with migrating assets from Aprimo or any other DAM into Adobe AEM Dam 6.0 sp2.  Please share

Hi,      How can i enable the Page Properties in the SideKick? It is disabled right now. 

Hi all, I'm trying to find out what is the best way to create a language copy of a page in a programmatic way. After some research I found a couple of things: - The /bin/wcmcommand servlet is used to language copy within the interface. However I trying to find out which API is used internally? Just like the wcmcommand for creating pages, uses the PageManager, I'm trying to find the LanguageCopy equivalent (but I'm afraid it doesn't exist...)- Nowadays there is a workflow called 'WCM Create Language Copy', however it doesn't seem to be used when you create a new language copy within the (Classic) interface...- The LanguageCopyCommand seems to be gone since CQ5.1 (http://docs.adobe.com/docs/v5_1/cq-wcm-javadoc/com/day/cq/wcm/core/impl/commands/LanguageCopyCommand.html), so that isn't an option anymoreSomebody who has an idea what the easiest way is for creating a language copies within a service/component ? Thanks in advance!Best regards, Ruben

Hi, I have installed AEM 6.0. We have an in-house developed authentication system (not ldap) and trying to see how the users can login to AEM with their in-house system credentials. Below is what i found in web. When user login for first time, it should create the user in AEM.http://adobedocsdiff.headwire.com/sitediff/serve/2015-02-10/data/docs/en/aem/6-0/develop/platform/custom-authentication-scenarios.htmlPlease share the sample logic to override the login module. Authentication module should validate the in-house user credentials.

Hi,I am facing one problem when my code goes to publish. I have page in which i used a component with custom tag. It work fine in author, but when i replicate my code from author to publish it gives error like : The absolute uri: http://www.mysite.com/taglibs cannot be resolved in either web.xml or the jar files deployed with this application . I have correctly replicated the my /apps/mysite folder on publish. But it gives error on publish but not on author. Any troubleshooting steps that can help me?Thanks

We have a secure site and ended up not caching those pages because we found you could bypass the security once the page was cached.  I'm curious to know if there is a better solution to managing secure content and caching.  We have noticeably poorer performance on the secure pages because we are no longer caching.  

Hi, Reading Oak documentation on Lucene (http://jackrabbit.apache.org/oak/docs/query/lucene.html), i found out that uses of analyzers are not available on Oak version like 1.0 (so not available for AEM 6.0 right now).I'm currently concerned by this because I wanted to use an analyzer to fix the following problem: My customer want to make fulltext search as //*[jcr:contains(.,"*geo*")] would bring back nodes containing the word georges but also the word géographie.Does anyone of you do have an idea of how I can do this without analyzer? If I'm wrong about analyzer uses possibility on AEM 6, it would be better and I'd be glad to get the information. In advance, thanks all Cheers Grégory Paillard

Hi there,There is a case for me: i need to persist application some data before JVM shutdown. So i program as below in OSGI bundle:protected void activate(ComponentContext ctx) { this.bundleContext = ctx.getBundleContext(); final Set<JobBean> jobs = CreateJobServlet.jobNames; jobs.addAll(getInProgressJob()); shutDownHook(jobs); } private Set<JobBean> getInProgressJob() { return getCustomerService().getInProgressJob(); } private void shutDownHook(final Set<JobBean> jobs) { logger.info("Exec shutDownHook()........."); Runtime.getRuntime().addShutdownHook(new Thread(){ public void run(){ logger.info("Running shutdown hook before JVM complete closed......"); getCustomerService().persisJob(jobs); } }); }However, the function shutDownHook never enter and work, no any log info in background.Anyone know how to do that? thanks a lot Brian

Hi,I have installed AEM 6.0 author and publish instances in tomcat app server. Whenever something is published, i want to send some key code to publish instance during the replication. Appreciated for any suggestion

Hi,I have a item search page, and I have about 50.000 items in the repository. I have some items that should not be retrieved in the search but should be visible only in some item details as related items. I'd like suggestions on how to do that. I thought on the following possibilities:Add an attribute to flag if the item should be displayed or not in the search, and I could filter in the jsp that receives the result or in the search query itself, which one is better?Is there any property that we can set that says that the item is not to be indexed?Thanks

I have overidden the teaser template and respective component from /libs/cq/personalization/components/teaserpage to my /apps/<appname>/cq/personalization/components/teaserpage. Then i created the page using this template under campaigns.  though my offer page is resolving the segments based on client context, still i don't see the page in "decision logic" window which is available on the home page where associated campaigns has been browsed.

We were experiencing issues with the 1280px rendition of DAM assets, and since nobody wanted those renditions, we have decided to modify the Update Asset workflow to remove the "Create Web Enabled Rendition" step.  What is the best way to persist this change as part of our project, so that the change will be applied to any new AEM instances that we launch?The workflow is stored at /etc/workflow/models/dam/update_asset.  Should we just include this node and its subtree in our project?  Are there any ramifications to this approach, such as side effects if an Adobe hotfix modifies the workflow?If a future hotfix does modify the workflow, I suspect it would re-add the step that we've removed, and it would remain until our project is re-installed.  Is there any way to avoid that?Is there a better way to achieve this?  Perhaps we should create a CreateWebEnabledImageProcess component to replace the out-of-the-box component, allowing us to effectively disable that workflow process.  Of course

We are running on CQ 5.6.1 and CRX CRX 2.4.64 right now. The space secured currently is 33GB. We wanted to free up some space; but when we run runDataStoreGarbageCollection(java.lang.Boolean delete)  and startTarOptimization() ; we get the message 'null'. Also; the disk space taken by crx-quicksart folder remains the same. Is this an error ? Are these processes working properly?
