ISSUE STATEMENT

When the index swap feature is used it throws the following error

ERROR

STEPS TO REPLICATE

The issue can be reproduced at will with the following steps:

1. Raise an SR to Oracle Commerce Support and ask them to enable the "StaticContentManager" for this functionality.

2. Navigate to http://yourserverhost:port/occs-admin/#/developer and download the Storefront Libraries. (This is a big zip file containing copies of the current JS Framework files.)

3. Inside the zip file, you should also see a directory called freemarker - this contains a number of example Freemarker templates. One of these is called index.ftl.

4. The next step is to do a DCU grab with the latest version of DCU from main.

5. DCU has created a new empty directory called static. (The latter is mapped to a dedicated folder in the VFS.)

6. Put the index.ftl in the static directory and do a DCU put (other content can also be placed in this directory as needed e.g. additional JS files).

7. Go back at http://yourserverhost:port/occs-admin/#/developer, you will notice that a new Activate button can be seen on the screen.

8. Click on "Activate" Commerce Cloud will use your index.ftl instead of the default index.jsp.

9. Modify the index page behavior by editing index.ftl in the static directory and doing a DCU put.
