exception: org.apache.sling.ide.transport.RepositoryException - javax.jcr.RepositoryException: Bad Request]

Hello. I was able to start a server in my aem instance but when I verified if I update something in eclipse, if it will also be updated in crxde.. I've encountered this error:

Any help on how I can resolve this?

Thanks,

Rockie

could you share the following:

• AEM developer tool version
• eclipse version
• sling IDE tooling version -- //check /system/console/bundles and find the jar version
• AEM version
• screenshot of AEM server configurations from eclipse
• error trace when you click on Details button, right next to the OK button
• steps that you performed to import/export the content

Please follow the WEEKEND tutorial and make sure that all software lines up with the version mentioned in the doc - Getting Started with AEM Sites - WKND Tutorial

As @gauravb10066713 mentions - looks like you may be using incompatible versions.

[rockie-rocafort]

AEM developer tool version: 1.2.0

Eclipse Version: 2018-12 (4.10.0)

Sling IDE tooling version: *how to check this one?

AEM Version: 6.4

Screenshot of AEM server configurations from eclipse:

Steps that you performed to import/export the content

     Since this came from a different team, I was just given a zip file. What I did was just to extract the contents and import it in eclipse using "Existing Maven Projects" option.  I've encountered several errors during my import. You can check this thread for the history of errors I've encountered: For artifact {com.adobe.aem:uber-jar:null:jar}: The version cannot be empty. I've just added some additional dependencies in my parent pom.xml file then added the jars manually. I managed to fix the errors then encountered this: Project build error: Unresolveable build extension but was able to fix it again. I've added an AEM server and just updated the port. It started successfully with "Synchronized" tag indicated beside the content module. But as I was trying to update a jsp file in eclipse.. I encountered the said error. Btw, there was also no stack trace being printed in my eclipse console.

Furthermore, there are some errors in my eclipse problems tab:

If you search for 'org.apache.sling.tooling.support.install' or Apache Sling Tooling Support Install under /system/console/bundles, you should see the version

AEM 6.4 has sling tooling version 1.0.2  The reason behind it is that your sling tooling support version must match the AEM developer tool version otherwise it would not work.

Possible reasons for it to fail are mentioned in the last screenshot that you shared - m2e incremental support and other dependencies. Could you set it up on some other network and see if it works? It seems that there are restrictions on your corporate proxy (same pattern in the other tickets raised by you). Are you able to access Eclipse marketplace and install any plugin on this same network? If not, then your corporate proxy/windows firewall has restrictions in-place to block the downloads.

If you are able to make it work for /apps or for /content but not for /core then it becomes an issue with core bundle's pom.xml which can be fixed easily. The exception is probably because outgoing calls from eclipse are blocked by either firewall/proxy of your network.

Couple of approaches to proceed further -

1) Identify that corporate proxy or your laptop's firewall is the root cause. Open a ticket with your network team to find a solution

2) Try the setup on a different network (may be guest network or home network) where you've less restrictions.

3) Setup the eclipse installation on a different machine/different network and then port the eclipse/bundles including .m2 and .eclipse folders on this machine. It should be one time effort.

I'll check with your eclipse version 2018-12 (4.10.0) to see if I can reproduce the error.

Revert with your findings.

P.S.  I've same setup 1.0.2 that works on local AEM 6.4 without any issues. My configurations are

• Eclipse Java EE IDE for Web Developers.
• Version: 2018-09 (4.9.0)
• Build id: 20180917-1800

I was able to check the Sling IDE tooling version and it's on 1.0.4 version. How can I change this to 1.0.2 so it will be compatible with my AEM 6.4? Is this the main reason of the error I'm encountering? Furthermore, I was also able to access the Eclipse Marketplace and install a plugin successfully.

As per checking with my network team, there's no corporate proxy or laptop's firewall. But I will try to set it up on a different machine and a different network by using a wifi or a vpn. I'll use Version: 2018-09 (4.9.0) for this. I'll update you afterwards.

Thank you,

Rockie

Is it okay to import my projects the same way I explained it to this thread? Import -> Existing Project.. or should I just do the answer in this :maven - How to work with a bundle in eclipse when it was downloaded from AEM - Stack Overflow

[Gaurav-Behl]

Yes, you may import the project using 'Existing maven project' till the time its generated using AEM recommended maven archetypes.

Hello, I was able to make it work by using Eclipse IDE version 2018-09 M2 (4.9.0M2). I just did a simple import of my projects, Maven update, then clean install. I've tried adding a sample jsp file to my CRXDE and I was able to get it on Eclipse IDE by just selecting import to server. But when I make changes from Eclipse IDE, CRXDE doesn't update even I export it to server. The same error still displays...
