Know the answers to some AEM troubleshooting and configuration issues.
Binary-less distribution is supported for deployments over a shared data store and involves agents that leverage the Vault-based Distribution package exporter (factory PID: org.apache.sling.distribution.serialization.impl.vlt.VaultDistributionPackageBuilderFactory
) package builder.
With binary-less mode enabled, the content packages distributed contain references to binaries rather than the actual binaries.
To enable binary-less distribution, deploy with a shared blob store.
Check the useBinaryReferences
property in the OSGI configuration with the factory PID ( org.apache.sling.distribution.serialization.impl.vlt.VaultDistributionPackageBuilderFactory
) that your agent is using.
Check the Network panel (of Chrome browser) where a personal setup (JS has not been minified).
View the Initiator
column to determine what the initiator of a request was. It provides the files and the line numbers from where the AJAX calls are made. Later, you can trace the error handling function and change the error message as per your requirement.
To create language copy feature, content-authors need permissions at /content/projects
location.
If one requires the authors to manage projects as well, then the workaround is to add the author to project-administrators
group.
Create a language root and language copy inside the root, before creating a translation project.
For example,
Create a language root at /content/geometrixx
with name as fr_LU
(and title as French (Luxembourg)). Subsequently, create language copy of page from the references panel and navigate to Create structure only
option in Create & Translate
. Finally, create a translation project and then add the language copy to the translation job.

AEM has introduced the ability to log administrative changes for better troubleshooting and audit. By default, the information is logged in the error.log
file. To make monitoring easier, it is recommended that they be redirected to a separate log file.
To redirect the output to a separate log file, see How to audit user management operations in AEM.
Adobe Experience Manager (AEM) 6.4 ships with the SSL wizard and offers a User Interface to configure Jetty and Granite Jetty SSL support.
To enable SSL by default, see SSL by default.
The Content Services are based on the Sling Models and the AEM developers must provide a Sling Model pojo for each component that is exported.
To understand how to consume AEM content services from a React application, see Get Started with AEM Content Services tutorial.
Also, if the developers want to export a tree of components they can also implement the ComponentExporter
and ContainerExporter
interfaces as well as use the ModelFactory
to iterate over the child components and return their model representation. See the resources below:
[1] Adobe-Marketing-Cloud/aem-core-wcm-components
[2] Apache Sling :: Sling Models
You can opt into usage statistics collection by using either the Touch UI or the Web Console. For detailed instructions, see Opting into aggregated usage statistics collection.

If the user, uploading the movie files does not have delete permissions under asset node, the delete chunk nodes fail and the upload restarts.
When you create a language copy through Touch UI (References -> Update Language Copy), a new DAM folder is created under the new language and assets are referenced from there.
This is default setting for OOTB configurations. You can set Translate Page Assets = Do not translate in Translation configurations.
For AEM 6.4, Tools > Cloud Services > Translation Cloud services.
You can disable the OSGi Component Disabler. To use this service, see OSGi Component Disabler.
As a workaround, you can also manually disable the component either via the UI or via a curl
command (example below), after every AEM restart.
curl -u admin:$(pass CQ_Admin) 'https://localhost:4502/system/console/components/com.day.cq.analytics.sitecatalyst.impl.importer.ReportImporter' --data 'action=disable'
AEM provides various mechanisms to enable you to customize the consoles and the page authoring functionality of your authoring instance. To learn how to create a custom console and customize a default view for a console, please refer to Customizing the Consoles.
A new set of Sling components of Granite UI Foundation is created for Coral3 and is located under /libs/granite/ui/components/coral/foundation. There is one set for CoralUI 2-based components and one set for CoralUI 3-based components. The new set will not be just a copy-paste of the old set, rather it will be cleaned up (for example streamlining, removing deprecated feature). So it is recommended that a page only use either CoralUI 3-based or CoralUI 2-based set.
To learn more in detail, please refer to Migration Guide to CoralUI 3-based.
