The below Java API helps to get the UserInfo details in Adobe Experience Manager(AEM)
@Reference
ResourceResolverFactory resolverFactory;

ResourceResolver adminResolver = null;
try {
       adminResolver = resolverFactory.getAdministrativeResourceResolver(null);
       final Session adminSession = adminResolver.adaptTo(Session.class);
       final UserManager userManager = adminResolver.adaptTo(UserManager.class);
       final User user = (User) userManager.getAuthorizable(adminSession.getUserID());
         
       logger.info("user.getID().."+user.getID());
       logger.info("user.isAdmin().."+user.isAdmin());
       logger.info("user.getPrincipal().getName().."+user.getPrincipal().getName());

       String lastName=user.getProperty("./profile/familyName")!=null?user.getProperty("./profile/familyName")[0].getString():null;

Browser cookie values are not setting in IE10 and IE11

Browser cookie values are not setting in IE10 and IE11

While trying to set the cookies in IE10 and IE11 through Java, the values are not stetting in the browser.

The code snippet used to set the cookie is

cookie = new javax.servlet.http.Cookie(cookieHeaderName,"Sample Cookie");
cookie.setPath("/");
ookie.setMaxAge(365*24*60*60);
cookie.setSecure(false);
cookie.setVersion(0);
response.addCookie(cookie);

After long struggle we found the issue might be with the value of Expires is not set, IE10 and IE11 expecting the value for Expires and it is not considering the value set in Max-Age.

Fix for the issue - Use the below code to set the cookie value

int expiration = 365*24*60*60;
StringBuilder cookieString = new StringBuilder("TestCookie=Test; ");

DateFormat df = new SimpleDateFormat("EEE, dd-MMM-yyyy HH:mm:ss 'GMT'", Locale.US);
Calendar cal = Calendar.getInstance();
cal.add(Calendar.SECOND, expiration);
cookieString.append("Expires=" + df.format(cal.getTime()) + "; ");
//cookieString.append("Domain="+request.getServerName()+"; ");
cookieString.append("Version=0; ");
cookieString.append("Path=/; ");
cookieString.append("Max-Age=" + expiration + "; ");
cookieString.append("HttpOnly");
response.addHeader("Set-Cookie", cookieString.toString());

How to Customize/Configure the 404 error handler for multi sites in AEM/Adobe CQ5?

How to Customize/Configure the 404 error handler for multi sites in AEM/Adobe CQ5?

This post will explain how to configure the 404 error handler in multi site scenario for Adobe Experience Manager(AEM) - This will configure different 404 pages for different sites..

If the error handler is configured for first time then copy /libs/sling/servlet/errorhandler to /apps/sling/servlet (create the folder structure before copying )

Modify /apps/sling/servlet/errorhandler/404.jsp file to modify the 404 error handling rules.

<%  
//setting response code as 404
response.setStatus(HttpServletResponse.SC_NOT_FOUND);
try {
    String uri = request.getRequestURI();
         
    if(uri.matches("(/content/Sample/en/)(.*)"))
    {
        pageContext.include("/content/Sample/en/404.html");
    } else if(uri.matches("(/content/Sample/es/)(.*)"))
    {
        pageContext.include("/content/Sample/es/404.html");
    } else if(uri.matches("(/en/)(.*)"))
    {
        pageContext.include("/content/Sample/en/404.html");
    }
    else if(uri.matches("(/es/)(.*)"))
    {
        pageContext.include("/content/Sample/es/404.html");
    } else
    {
        pageContext.include("/content/Sample/en/404.html");
    }

} catch (Exception e) {

%>
        Page Not Found
<%
}

%>

The conditions can be added to handle different sites, if the sites are running on different virtual host names then get the server name from the request
(request.getServerName()) and add the condition based on the server name.

This will redirect the user to site specific 404 pages.
