Activate Later and Deactivate Later is not working

[radhikak8817019]

Hi All,

We are getting exception in "Activate Later" and "Deactivate Later" functionality of CQ5.

Steps to schedule Actiavte/Deactivate Later :

1. Schedule Activate later or Deactivate Later on any page for some time.

2. Check the status of page after scheduled time.

Actual Result :

Page is not published after scheduled time and also the symbol for Activate Later and Deactivate Later is still displayed.

Expected Result :

Page should be published or unpublished after scheduled time.

Hi Radhika,

 Are you using the OOTB workflow for activate later and deavctivate later or have you created a custom workflow for the same ?

It also looks like a permission issue with the user who have scheduled it for activate later / deactivate later. Can you give more information on the group of the user who will be performing that action

thanks,

Lokesh

Which version of aem? DO you have NPR-3544 installed? http://helpx.adobe.com/experience-manager/kb/cq561-available-hotfixes.html

Hi Sham,

Thanks for your reply.

AEM Version : Adobe Experience Manager, Version 5.6.1.20130606.

The hotfix "cq-5.6.1-hotfix-3544-1.0.zip" is installed in the server.

Radhika,

it looks like an ACL issue, have you changed any of the permissions with the groups ??

Can you enable and give permission to everything for administrator group. restart and try again.

Hi RK,

In replication agent check "No Versioning" and verify. If it works then there is some version issue. If does not work report the issue at daycare & will do the rest. 

Thanks,

For information :

After 3544 we also have following hotfixes installed:

• cq-5.6.1-hotfix-3695-1.0;day/cq561/hotfix;N
• cq-5.6.1-hotfix-3728;day/cq561/hotfix;N

which have event jar (org.apache.sling.event) upgraded to 3.3.4 version.

[Lokesh_Shivalingaiah]

[radhikak8817019]

I am on AEM 5.6.1.20130606 and also have hotfix 3544 installed and also cannot use Activate Later.  It is only happening in our prod environment though.  In our dev environment, it is working fine.
