Error - org.apache.sling.api.servlets cannot be resolved

[harishred]

Hello all, trying to build my project and getting below error in my OSGi after deploying it as a bundle... (Project created by archetype 23).. I am seeing below error:

org.apache.sling.api.servlets,version=[2.3,3) -- Cannot be resolved

I have this dependency added in my POM

<dependency>
    <groupId>org.apache.sling</groupId>
    <artifactId>org.apache.sling.api</artifactId>
    <version>2.3.0</version>
    <scope>provided</scope>
</dependency>

Tried all versions https://repo.adobe.com/nexus/content/groups/public/org/apache/sling/org.apache.sling.api/ but no luck. What am I missing?

Error from logs:

When i used archetype 22, i dont see this issue.. looks like the issue is only with 23

Hi,

Please look for the "Exported Packages" list of the bundle - Apache Sling API (org.apache.sling.api) in your instance.

We will have the servlets API mentioned with version as one among the list.

• Make an entry of the same explicitly in the "Import-Package" list of bundle plugin in core/pom.xml

Also, the maven dependency to be added can be arrived at using system/console/depfinder.html which will be  - the whole of sling API bundle that exposes the servlets API.

Hi @vijis, thank you. I've tried that already as you can see in my question.. infact its 2.2.1 like you have in your instance. and i added the maven dependency as well with no luck.

[Vijayalakshmi_S]

Hi,

Ok. One final try, can you add the version number that comes in depfinder for your maven dependency. (I could see that you have tried all the versions mentioned in adobe repo)

If it is the same, then ignore. 

[harishred]

Yup tried all versions, but bummer

[arunpatidar]

Can you check what version of org.apache.sling.api.servlets you have in aem.

You can check using /system/console/depfinder

In AEM 6.5 It is 2.2.1

Please check https://stackoverflow.com/questions/20278236/org-apache-sling-api-resource-version-2-3-3-cannot-be-r...

[harishred]

Hi Arun, yes already checked that link you gave .. the version i have is also 2.2.1

[chrisatsirius · Accepted solution]

get service pack 4(6.5.4), it should fix your issue.

[harishred]

Yeah makes sense, i dont have access to the jar, but probably will request it later.. Prod is on 6.5.2 so doesnt make getting 6.5.4.. Hope archetype version had Aem versions it supports

[vtjung]

It works with service pack 6.5.4 (Archetype 23 und Cloud)

[harishred]

yes, i guess 23 works only for 6.5.4 and above
