I have an ARM based laptop. I have downloaded AEMaaCS SDK from Adobe and trying to run 4502 but sites are not loading. I have the templates but whenever I try to create a page and click a template, the next screen is blank. Could not find anything in error log.

    Hi ​@ktp,

    Which laptop do you have - Apple Silicon Mac, or Windows on ARM / Snapdragon?

    Hello ​@ktp, can you pls help with the following:

    1. Do you have any custom javascript OR page properties that interacts with the author services?
    2. Any console logs?
    3. Could you check if a servlet or something else has been registered on the same resourceType (your page component)

    Regards,

    Ramkumar

    Hi ​@ktp please share a few additional details so that community can help narrow down the root cause more precisely: 

    • Browser console errors – Open Developer Tools (F12) and check the Console and Network tabs for any JavaScript errors or failed requests.
    • Java version – Run java -version and share the exact version and distribution
    • Operating System – Let me know whether you're using Mac (M1/M2/M3) or Windows on ARM.
    • AEM SDK version – The exact SDK build/version you downloaded from Adobe.

    With this information, we can identify whether the problem is related to JVM compatibility/ARM-specific behavior/client libraries or a frontend rendering issue.

     

    Thanks
