AEM Troubleshooting/ Useful Links

Sharing few utility tools/ links-

1. To find the generated java files in AEM6.1

Generated JSP JAVA files used to be at -  /var/classes location but AEM6.1 on wards it's no longer present there. This is due to change of repository ClassLoader, now it uses FSClassLoader (File System ClassLoader) for better performance and throughput.

Generated JSP java files are located at- [AEM_INSTALL_DIR]/crx-quickstart/launchpad/felix/bundle[BUNDLE_ID]/data/classes
