The following section covers some issues that you may encounter when using AEM (Adobe Experience Manager), together with suggestions on how to troubleshoot them.

NOTE

If you are troubleshooting authoring issues in AEM, see Troubleshooting for Authors.

NOTE

When experiencing problems, it is also worthwhile checking the list of Known Issues for your instance (release and service packs).

Making a Thread Dump making-a-thread-dump

The thread dump is a list of all the Java™ threads that are currently active. If AEM does not respond properly, the thread dump can help you identify deadlocks or other problems.

Using Sling Thread Dumper using-sling-thread-dumper

Open the AEM Web Console; for example, at https://localhost:4502/system/console/.
Select the Threads under Status tab.

Using jstack (command line) using-jstack-command-line

Find the PID (process id) of the AEM Java™ instance.

For example, you can use ps -ef or jps.
Run:

jstack <pid>
Shows the thread dump.

NOTE

You can append the thread dumps to a log file by using the >> output redirection:

jstack <pid> >> /path/to/logfile.log

See the How to take Thread Dumps from a JVM documentation for more information

Checking for unclosed JCR sessions checking-for-unclosed-jcr-sessions

When functionality is developed for AEM WCM, JCR Sessions may be opened (comparable to opening a database connection). If the opened sessions are never closed, your system may experience following symptoms:

The system becomes slower.
You can see much of CacheManager: resizeAll entries in the log file; the following number (size=<x>) shows the number of caches, each session opens several caches.
From time to time the system runs out of memory (after a few hours, days, or weeks - depending on the severity).

To analyze unclosed sessions and find out which code is not closing a session, see the Knowledge Base article Analyze Unclosed Sessions.

Using the Adobe Experience Manager Web Console using-the-adobe-experience-manager-web-console

The status of the OSGi bundles can also give an early indication of possible issues.

Open the AEM Web Console; for example, at https://localhost:4502/system/console/.
Select Bundles under OSGI tab.
Check:
- the Status of the bundles. If any are Inactive or Unsatisfied, try to stop and restart the bundle. If the issue persists, investigate further using other methods.
- whether any of the bundles have missing dependencies. Such details can be seen by clicking the individual bundle Name, which is a link (the following example does not have any issues):
