Configuration binding to launchpad:resources/install/0/org.apache.sling.scripting.core-2.0.44.jar

[chinnainturi]

Hi All,

We are using AEM 6.3 and created a custom configurable workflow process. Whenever process step loads,On Configuration manager tab, bundle column has launchpad:resources/install/0/org.apache.sling.scripting.core-2.0.44.jar and its stops working. We need to delete the binding and restart the bundle to proceed furthur. This is happening everytime it loads the custom process step.

Any idea on this issue?

What APIs are  you using to build the process.

Kunwar​ has this issue been seen before? I have never heard of this.

I see a similar issue was posted earlier but its not related to Workflow process.

Your workflow step does not have any dependency to the Sling Scripting Core bundle, so it shouldn't be related. Of course other components in your bundle might have these dependency, so it still can.

What does "it stops working" mean? Is your bundle active? Is your workflow step service running? Where exactly can you see this dependency to "launchpad:resources/install/0/org.apache.sling.scripting.core-2.0.44.jar"?

Can you provide some more information about the problem and steps you do to resolve it?

Sorry for misleading. Actually in workflow process we have a Dialog participant step which populate data from Configuration. We have used Datasource to read configuration values, while reading configuration service configuration binding is automatically updated as  launchpad:resources/install/0/org.apache.sling.scripting.core-2.0.44.jar and hence Service stopped working.

import com.adobe.cq.sightly.WCMUsePojo;

import com.adobe.granite.ui.components.ds.DataSource;

import com.adobe.granite.ui.components.ds.EmptyDataSource;

import org.apache.commons.lang.StringUtils;

import org.apache.sling.api.resource.Resource;

import org.apache.sling.api.resource.ResourceResolver;

import org.apache.sling.commons.osgi.PropertiesUtil;

import org.osgi.service.cm.Configuration;

import org.osgi.service.cm.ConfigurationAdmin;

import org.slf4j.Logger;

import org.slf4j.LoggerFactory;

import java.util.ArrayList;

import java.util.Dictionary;

import java.util.List;

public class SampleValuesModel  extends WCMUsePojo{

   private static Logger log = LoggerFactory.getLogger(SampleValuesModel.class);

   private final static String VAR_PID = "pid";

   private final static String VAR_PROPERTY_1 = "prop_1";

   private ConfigurationAdmin configAdmin;

   private List<String> folderValues = new ArrayList<String>();

   @Override
   public void activate() throws Exception {

   final ResourceResolver resolver = getResource().getResourceResolver();

   //Use getSlingScriptHelper().getService() to get an instance of the ConfigurationAdmin
   configAdmin = getSlingScriptHelper().getService(ConfigurationAdmin.class);

   // config path passed as datasource parameter
   String configPath = get(VAR_PID, String.class);

   // property which we need to read from config service
   String propertyName = get(VAR_PROPERTY_1, String.class);

   log.info("--------PID Value DPM --------"+configPath);

   log.info("----------Property Value DPM-------"+propertyName);

  Configuration conf = configAdmin.getConfiguration(configPath);

  //BELOW CODE FIXED MY ISSUE

   if (null != conf) {

  conf.setBundleLocation(null);

  }

Hi,

thanks for the explanation, I understand now more of your problem.

The code you use doesn't really make sense to me. First of all, the use of the ConfigAdmin is not encouraged, you should use the OSGI anotations to read the properties. If you refactor your WcmUsePojo into a SlingModel, you can do that easily without on relying on the ConfigAdmin service. Rebinding the service is a really ugly workaround.

Having said that I wonder that it doesn't work. Feels like an issue, because it should work ...

I would first refactor it into a Sling Model and then check if that error is persisting.

Hi,

We are using sling models only for components and I tried to do this also using Sling Model, But since its just a dialog within dialog participant step postContruct method is never called and i couldnt populate the datasource. Can you please point me to some references.

AEM 6.3 Configuration bound to wrong bundle launchpad:resources/install/0/org.apache.sling.scriptin...

[VarunV]

The API call [1] you mentioned is not recommended to be used for the use case you are after.

The call [1] gets bound to the bundle performing the call (the scripting bundle in this case).

So, you have two options

1. Use getConfiguration(configName, null) - this way you're only getting the configuration without binding it. However, this call will create the configuration if it doesn't exist, which is not what you want (I assume !).
2. Therefore, use ConfigurationAdmin.listConfiguations instead for a cleaner way to access configuration.

In general, read the configuration admin spec, especially

https://osgi.org/specification/osgi.cmpn/7.0.0/service.cm.html#service.cm-location.binding

[1] Configuration conf = configAdmin.getConfiguration(configPath);
