cq:tags error "com.day.cq.tagging.impl.TagValidatingEventListener invalid/duplicated tags detected at content/"


I am setting a node property "cq:tags" in form of String array. My java code sets this property upon node creation. But this gives me error and the "cq:tags" property gets stored as a blank String array. The error is: com.day.cq.tagging.impl.TagValidatingEventListener invalid/duplicated tags detected at content/...

Can someone please help on this? Thanks in advance.


Solution

  • In general you will see this error when your tag is invalid and not defined under /etc/tags

    The error message normally gives you more details on the specific tag which was invalid and cannot be resolved. Make sure you have your tags defined under /etc/tags

    Also note that the tag is full path for cq:tags property, so for example, if you have a tag defined at /etc/tags/facebook then your cq:tags should have /etc/tags/facebook. Using just 'facebook' as a tag value will cause the error that you are seeing.
