I am trying to setup adobe AEM RDE environment.

Have followed the steps mentioned in the following documentation https://experienceleague.adobe.com/en/docs/experience-manager-learn/cloud-service/developing/rde/how....

I ran the "mvn clean package" command and then proceeded to run the command in the screenshot attached below("command run" file). Note I have two different project in my repo.

I have also created a new dispatcher for RDE environment and added a symbolic link for the same in the active vhost folder. Added the lines present below in my screen shot.

However whenever I try to hit a servlet it only gives default apache output as

<html><body><h1>It works!</h1></body></html>.

Please let me know if anything else is required.

@vashishth47 you'll want to post this in the AEM community: https://experienceleaguecommunities.adobe.com/t5/adobe-experience-manager/bd-p/adobe-experience-mana...

Hi @vashishth47,

In your dispatcher config, the wildcard *.adobeaemcloud.com is not being matched. The RDE validator doesn’t allow unrestricted wildcards. You need to explicitly list the exact hostnames that Cloud Manager assigns to your RDE Publish service.

Example:

ServerAlias publish-p124507-e1263256.adobeaemcloud.com
ServerAlias myai-rde.adobeaemcloud.com

You can check your assigned RDE domain under Cloud Manager > Environments > RDE > URLs.

Try to remove or replace the wildcard:

ServerAlias *.adobeaemcloud.com

with the exact domain(s) that Adobe gave you for your RDE publish instance.
Make sure your dispatcher/src/conf.d/enabled_vhosts/ folder has a symlink pointing to your new vhost config file. Example:

cd dispatcher/src/conf.d/enabled_vhosts ln -s ../available_vhosts/my-ai-publish.vhost my-ai-publish.vhost
