AEM 6.4 Code deployment to Remote Server

[Jeanmaradiaga]

If I have a remote server with AEM installed can I push my current code with something as simple as:

mvn clean install -PautoInstallDevPackage -U -Daem.host=test-author.dev.com -Daem.port=4502 -DUserName=admin-Dpassword=admin

 Or do I need to use cURL? POM? I haven't been able to find much information on how I can push my local changes to a remove server for some reason.

Yes, this is one of the way.

mvn clean install -PautoInstallPackage -Daem.host=test-author.dev.com -Daem.port=4502 -Daem.author.user=admin -Daem.author.password=admin

yes using the mvn command line and providing system properties to it would be the sufficient to build to remote server without touching a code. If we make a changes in POM.xml and sometimes if we forget to revert it, it may create an unwanted issue.

@Jeanmaradiaga,

Your maven command looks correct; can you share with us your error messages please?

 The requested profile "autoInstallDevPackage" could not be activated because it does not exist.
[ERROR] Failed to execute goal com.day.jcr.vault:content-package-maven-plugin:0.5.24:install (install-package) on project com.bla.bla.config: The host did not accept the connection within timeout of 5000 ms: connect timed out -> [Help 1]

Or with the following command:

clean install -PautoInstallBundle -U -Daem.host=blabla.com -Daem.port=4502 -DUserName=admin -Dpassword=admin

I get:

ERROR] [ERROR] Some problems were encountered while processing the POMs:

now this error says that your <version> XML in column 14, contains an expression, and requires a constant like "1.0.0-SNAPSHOT".

Does your code even build to locally? 

mvn clean install ?

[Jeanmaradiaga]

Yes it does, it is importing it to a remote server the only issue I am having right now.

[BrianKasingli]

in your pom.xml, the user profile "autoInstallDevPackage" does not exist. as mentioned in the error message. You might need to take a deeper look at the maven build profiles, and determine which correct profile to run.

[Jeanmaradiaga]

True, thanks. I tried with

install -PautoInstallPackage -Daem.host=test.bla.com -Daem.port=4502 -Daem.author.user=admin -Daem.author.password=admin

 Which is the one we use locally and it throws a timeout error instead. Perhaps my IP needs to be whitelisted in the server. Here is the error:
