Hi @paulojorgemtava 

You can add the below highlighted rule in your farms any file under rules section and it will cache the file.

 

/rules
{
/0000 { /glob "*" /type "deny" }
/0001 { /glob "/etc/cloudsettings.kernel.js" /type "allow" }
}

 

Please refer the rules section here priovided by Adobe:

https://experienceleague.adobe.com/docs/experience-manager-dispatcher/using/configuring/dispatcher-c...

 

Hope this helps!
Thanks!

This file will not be cached in dispatcher.

Dispatcher does not cache a file when there is no extension.

Thanks!

The file have extension, but concatenate with other path https://host/etc/cloudsettings.kernel.js + /conf/jca/settings/cloudsettings/jca/contexthub.

If you see the below examples:

http://localhost:4502/etc/cloudsettings.kernel.js/libs/settings/cloudsettings/legacy/contexthub - This is the file which will deliver the content which does not have any extension which will not be cached.
http://localhost:4502/etc/cloudsettings.kernel.js - This has an extension but it does not deliver any content.

 

There is another way to cache the file by applying a rewrite rule but for that the incoming URL needs to be updated and should have an extension which I am not sure if it will be possible in your case as you might not be able to change the incoming URL such as:

Request URL: http://localhost:4502/etc/cloudsettings.kernel.js/something.js -> Rewrite to http://localhost:4502/etc/cloudsettings.kernel.js/libs/settings/cloudsettings/legacy/contexthub

which will serve the content as well as cache the content with something.js name.

 

Thanks!

I too am facing similar issue, when this files tried to load it take way more (~2-3 sec) more to load compared to AEM 6.4 version. @paulojorgemtava was this issue resolved for you?

@del27634 I created only the "rep:policy" bellow the folder /conf/.../settings/cloudsettings/.../contexthub.

Hi @paulojorgemtava,
Has that resolved the cache issue? I see the publisher takes long time to return the response every time the request is made.
Could you please post the resolution you tried for this?

@del27634, Has that not resolved the cache issue, because this file not create cache, but this permission resolved the problem with long request.

Hello @paulojorgemtava,
 That is exactly what i am seeing, the long response time from the publish server.
Could you please let me know in the rep:policy node what was the content added, was the user added was "everyone"?
If possible can you provide a screen-shot, that would be really very helpful.

The problem is related to URL structure and the fact that the suffix for the original resource (/etc/cloudsettings.kernel.js/conf/xxx/settings/cloudsettings/default/contexthub) does not have any extension. Dispatcher ignores such requests. Sadly, It looks like a dead end... However, with a bit of trick you can force the dispatcher to cache it. If you name your contexthub configuration in a way which ends with an extension, i.e. /conf/xxx/settings/cloudsettings/default/contexthub.js, then the full request will become cacheable (/etc/cloudsettings.kernel.js/conf/xxx/settings/cloudsettings/default/contexthub.js).

After you rename the configuration, you need to remember about updating the references in content, like on the screenshot:Screenshot 2022-03-07 at 13.14.14.png
