Application Server install - aem publish error(SHA-256 digest)

[sandeep_R_sahu]

Hi All,

Hope

I am trying to deploy AEM war file as application server in Oracle Weblogic.

Author instance has been been deployed successfully using AEM war file.

But when I try to deploy publish instance using same war file after updating web.xml for sling.run.modes to publish,

I get error as  "Unable to access the selected application. SHA-256 digest error for WEB-INF/web.xml".

It would be great if someone can please assist on this.

I followed Application Server Install - docs.adobe.com​ link.

Using

• Weblogic 12.1.3
• AEM 6.1 war
• Windows 7

Have a great day

Thanks,

Sandeep

Looks like Weblogic stores a hash-value of the web.xml somewhere and compares it on startup against the web.xml; and if you just change the web.xml it does not match anymore.

This isn't an AEM problem, but rather an issue on the WL side.
