AEM 6.5.13 service pack - brand new installation failed

[crich2784]

Hello,

I am trying to create a brand new AEM development environment and I'm getting a JSP compilation error.

I installed AEM 6.5 - crx-quickstart.jar - all good and it worked.  I just clicked around strategically.

Next I download these:

AEM 6.5 Service Pack 13

AEM Forms 6.5.13.0 Add-on for Windows

I installed the service pack and waited for the system to settle.  Restarted.

I installed the Add-on and waited for the system to settle.  Restarted.

Everything looked good.

When I navigate to:

http://localhost:4502/aem/forms.html/content/dam/formsanddocuments

It fails with a JSP compilation error.

What am I missing?

If this is a brand new instance and there are no custom packages/bundles deployed so I assume all the bundles should be active (?). I have recently updated my local instance to SP13 but didn't encounter this issue (though it was patched to SP12 previously). I will set up a new instance following the steps shared.

Meanwhile, can you check the bundles state and try to recompile jsp[0]?

I am unable to replicate the issue in-house, following the steps shared.

Seems to be an issue with your set-up. Please follow the steps shared.

[crich2784]

I will check the JSP and try to duplicate.  Then, I'll send steps and more detail.

It appears that recompiling the JSPs worked.  I deleted the class folder (there was only 1) and restarted AEM.  I will continue testing.  Thank you.

@Pulkit_Jain_  The reason we are building a new system is because we are getting a weird error when trying to submit an adaptive form.  I can start a new forum post but, I thought you could give me a little insight.

We created a simple Adaptive form - blank template.  Added  a text box and a submit button.

We created a simple Workflow - 1 No operation step.

We created a Forms Application pointing to the Adaptive Form, The Workflow and Submit Relative to Payload data.xml.  

Very very simple.

I go to my Inbox and click Create Application - type something in text box and click submit.

The error is 

AEM-FD-011-003 - Error occurred while submitting draft.

There are no messages in the error.log

It's probably something easy and embarrassing.  Can you help?

@crich2784 New thread with workflow screenshots and variable mapping will help us understand what might be going on

Ok.
