XmlHttpRequest and AEM Servlet - xmlhttprequest

Question

I am making an raw ajax call on the clientside, which look like the following,
var url = '/bin/denisa/dummyServlet';
var xhr = new XMLHttpRequest();
xhr.open('GET', url);
xhr.setRequestHeader('Content-Type', 'application/json; charset=utf-8');
xhr.setRequestHeader('Accept', 'application/json, text/javascript, */*; q=0.01');
xhr.onload = function() {
if (xhr.status === 200) {
alert('deni');
}
else {
alert('Request failed. Returned status of ' + xhr.status);
}
};
xhr.send();
to the following servlet in AEM:
#Component(
service = {
Servlet.class
},
property = {
"sling.servlet.paths=/bin/denisa/dummyServlet",
"sling.servlet.extensions=json",
"sling.servlet.methods=GET"
}
)
public class DummyServlet extends SlingSafeMethodsServlet {
private static final Logger LOG = LoggerFactory.getLogger(DummyServlet .class);
#Reference
private dummyService dummyService;
#Override
protected void doGet(SlingHttpServletRequest request, SlingHttpServletResponse response) throws ServletException, IOException {
Gson gson = new Gson();
JsonElement jsonElement = gson.toJsonTree(dummyService);
response.setContentType("application/json");
response.getWriter().write(gson.toJson(jsonElement));
}
}
And I got a 404, and i don't know exactly why because the path is the same, and also contentTypes. Does anybody has a clue?

Answer 1

Your code looks good it seems something is missing on the config side
can you log in to the felix console
http://localhost:4502/system/console/bundles
Expand you project bundle and check for your servlet
with Service ID xx Types: javax.servlet.Servlet and other details
*Also ensure the bundle is not installed and in active state
Then go to http://localhost:4502/system/console/configMgr and verify Apache Sling Servlet/Script Resolver execution paths contain /bin/ entry
If above mentioned configs are navigate to http://localhost:4502/system/console/servletresolver
check for servlet response.
These are some of the configuration which helped me to resolve 404
