_rep_policy.xml config nodes does not work in /conf/my-brand

[AEMWizard]

I am trying to create a _rep_policy.xml on my /conf/my-brand, so that everyone can view this file. Whenever I bundle the code into AEM platform, the _rep_policy does not show up.
Please can someone explain to me why this is happening?

Hi @AEMWizard,

By default _rep_policy.xml files are ignored. You have to properly configured acHandling property in your crx package. Here are some links to Adobe and FileVault Package Maven plugin documentation, that describes all available options and shows how to do this.

Hi,

You need to add aclhandling in content-package-maven-plugin plugin in your content pom e.g.

<!-- ====================================================================== -->
<!-- V A U L T P A C K A G E P L U G I N -->
<!-- ====================================================================== -->
<plugin>
<groupId>com.day.jcr.vault</groupId>
<artifactId>content-package-maven-plugin</artifactId>
<extensions>true</extensions>
<configuration>
<filterSource>src/main/content/META-INF/vault/filter.xml</filterSource>
<verbose>true</verbose>
<failOnError>true</failOnError>
<group>myPorj</group>
<properties>
<acHandling>merge</acHandling>
</properties>
</configuration>
</plugin>
