We are upgrading from CQ 5.5 to 5.6.1 and would like to know if we need to rename the cq-quickstart-5.6.1.jar file to cq-quickstart-5.6.1-author-p4502.When we are upgrading to CQ 5.4 from 5.3, renaming was required and we had to rename the file for author instance as cq-quickstart-5.5.0-author-p4502, with 'p' flag infront of the port number 4502. Not sure if we need to follow the same naming convension this time. Please let me, If any of you have executed the upgrade and had to rename the file.ThanksSailesh.

Hello, I am about to edit a large amount of video metadata in Scene7 in order to generate a video sitemap. In the application settings I did already match the metadata elements to match the input fields that are used to generate the video sitemap. But editiong the according metadata for each video asset is a pain.Is there any way to import evideo metadata like description, title and keywords for several evideos at once via tab delimited file? The "File -> Import Metadata" menu seems to work only for images. I searched the help files but the process described there is for images only obviously.Thanks in advance, Gerald

We have a 3rd party application from which we ingest data into CRX. This 3rd party application gives us driver information like first name , last name , score , bio etc. We create one CQ package per driver and ingest into CRX. We have 200 drivers. Each driver data create 30+ nodes and sets some properties.We are thinking of changing this logic to create one big package with all 200 drivers and ingest this one big CQ package instead of ingesting small 200 CQ packages.Which is the best way to solve this problem and which will be fast (200 cq package or just one big CQ package) ? We were thinking that with 200 CQ package CQ has to track events for all 200 packages which might result in more time versus one big CQ package in which CQ has to track only one event.

I need to enable a particular component group by default when i create a page with a specific template; without going to design mode and selecting the group.When author selects it once, it works for all new pages he creates with that template. However, that is not the case when the package is installed in in another CQ environment and the author has to again manually choose the group by going to design mode.Need a solution to avoid this. Tried referring the content.xml for any properties added after the group is chosen from design mode. But couldn't find.Kindly help.Thanks,Sriram

Hi,I am working on building a footer component for my site. The links on the footer, the logo image and the copyright information on footer are authorable fields.Since the footer is same across all my templates, I want to edit my footer component, author it once, I want the same links to show across all my pages irrespective of the template being used.But the way it works currently is:I have included the footer component in my templates like this <cq:include path="footer" resourceType="proj/components/sitename/footer" /> and also added a design_dialog.1) When i switch to design mode from the sidekick, and click the edit button on my footer and populate my links, they get stored under:  /etc/designs/sitename/jcr:content/category-page/footer     for page with template type category-page/etc/designs/sitename/jcr:content/home-page/footer     for page with template type home-page2) So I need to author the same set set of links over and over again for each template type once. The site

Are there any other structures within the CQ v5.4 footprint that one can remove going forward from CQ v5.5?I handled the CQ v5.4 to CQ v5.5 upgrade but wasn't sure about what could be removed and what couldn't though I suspected a couple of areas were no longer in use.  Because I wasn't sure I figured there was little harm in leaving this stuff around.  That is until they've asked one of my peers to handle the CQ v5.5 to CQ v5.6.1 upgrade with me mentoring so we had at least two resources with experience doing it and this individual started trying to start our CQ v5.5 SANDBOX instance using the old CQ v5.4 start/stop scripts present at crx-quickstart\server.  So  now I think it is important to get rid of these areas that are no longer used and I'd encourage Adobe to make this information know in their upgrade documentation if it is indeed safe to remove such areas.

I am having an issue with the redirect functionality in CQ5. Essentially, I can set a redirect in the page properties of any page on my site. However this redirect only seems to work when I navigate to that page through a link. For example starting on the homepage and clicking through to the page in question - then it redirects as I have set in the properties.However, the redirect does not happen when I navigate to the URL directly in the browser. Does anyone know why this is?

Hi,On CQ5.5 SP2.1, I have a master site which has around a dozen live copy sites. I recently tried rolling out updates to a couple of sections. However the rollout was only meant to go to a few of the live copy sites. Usually a screen appears asking which sites require the update, but in this instance it did not. The only difference in the process was I selected a couple of sections, rather than just a single section or page. I've attached a screenshot of the window I would usually see showing the live copies. Is this a known CQ issue? I'm using Chrome on Windows 7.Any help would be appreciated. ThanksIan

HiWe are new to AEM. Our Java devs are happy (almost!), our architects are happy, BUT our web/frontend devs are struggling with a few concepts.Do we need to use Eclipse and Maven to do any html or css amends? as I can't see any other way to get a local AEM instance to show the changes that are being made.The request from the front end team is:"I would like to be able to align my local GIT repo with my local AEM instance, make changes to html, css etc...in textmate or sublime, commit to my repo and then refresh the browser to see my changes. Without having to worry about MAven, Eclipse etc..."I would like to know if this is possible? Or do we HAVE to use Maven/Eclipse etc...Cheers...Fraser

Hi Guys,  I'm dealing with one of the OOTB Hybris importers supported by CQ . I'm following the documentation from here (http://dev.day.com/docs/en/cq/current/ecommerce/eCommerce-framework.html)  to get going on integrating  CQ commerce with Hybris .  I'm currently on CQ 5.6.1 .As advised in the documentation I  have installed packages  cq-hybris-content -5.6.100cq-hybris-server- 5.6.0​I can log into Hybris and view/update the catalogs . Now i'm trying to import the catalogs form hybris .So when I open the hybris catalog importer  I see something different from what is shown in the documentation . Snapshot attached . I do not see 'Root Path' but see 'Language Code' and  'Commerce provider' . However, when I attempt to import an existing catalog from a base Hybris site into CQ, by specifying the values , it fails with the  log message  'Base site clothingcatalog doesn't exist' .Do I need to create any structure in AEM side before importing the catalogs ? Why is that my local instance of

Hi,I try to use DataSourcePool to connect with MySQL database. And I notice that after long inactivity or database restart connection is closed and first attempt to use it ends with this error message.Caused by: com.mysql.jdbc.exceptions.jdbc4.CommunicationsException: The last packet successfully received from the server was 49,803,911 milliseconds ago.  The last packet sent successfully to the server was 49,803,925 milliseconds ago. is longer than the server configured value of 'wait_timeout'. You should consider either expiring and/or testing connection validity before use in your application, increasing the server configured values for client timeouts, or using the Connector/J connection property 'autoReconnect=true' to avoid this problem.I try to define validation query "Select 1" but I don't see any improvements.Also have autoReconnect=true and autoReconnectForPools=true in connection urlThanks
