I am now seeing the same thing. It happens when you create a package in package manager. When you download the package and unzip it you see this file under /apps even if you don't have /apps included in your filter.

Thanks for your response. I have experimented with that route. I didn't know Adobe had workflows for this so I built my own that do just that. In practice though, that process is really clumsy for authors and there is no easy way to keep that other publisher maintained and no easy visual clue for an author to know what has been published to a stage server and what has not. That approach requires a lot of extra code to make it a clean process and I was hoping to avoid that at the moment.

Thank you for your reply. I am quite familiar with dispatcher and it's functionality. At Adobe summit last year during one of the sessions I attended someone mentioned using dispatcher in this way which is why I am looking into it.The business requirements is to view a page on author how it would look published.I want to view:http://publisher:4502/content/mysite/mypage.html?wcmmode=disabledAs:http://webserver/content/mysite/mypage.htmlso a marketer can review the content before the author publis...

Last fall a community article was written that talks about how to write a JCR API/Java app to upload assets to the AEM DAM: http://helpx.adobe.com/experience-manager/using/multiple-digital-assets.html You can extend this Java app to modify additional nodes and props to account for Metadata, Thank you for the quick reply.

If you want to enforce login at a specific path, say /content/dam/clientdam, you can configure it in the Sling Authentication Service by adding +/content/dam/clientdam to the authentication requirements.
