This article explains how to fix client libraries that are broken due to AccessDeniedException.
Issue
Your AEM pages are not loading JavaScript or CSS and you see the following error in the log file:

Environment
AEM 6.2 and later versions
Cause
The clientlibs-service user is missing or missing permissions.
Resolution
To get rid of the AccessDeniedException and fix the issue, follow these steps:
-
-
Browse to the folders below and validate that clientlibs-service user has these permissions:
- /apps Allow jcr:read
- /libs Allow jcr:read
- /etc Allow jcr:read
- /var/clientlibs Allow jcr:read, rep:write
To view permissions, browse to the node you want to view or modify permissions for. Then, on the lower-right panel of CRXDE click the Access Control tab.
If the clientlibs-service user itself is missing, then go to a working AEM instance and create a package of the path /home/users/system/clientlibs-service. Then install that to your broken instance.
