Install 6.4.1.0
Caution:
For customers with Feature Packs installed on AEM 6.4. Optional Feature Packs provided by Adobe have dependencies on the release version and service pack. If you have any Feature Pack installed, please contact the AEM Customer Care team to validate the compatibility of those feature packs with this service pack for AEM 6.4.
- AEM 6.4.1.0 requires AEM 6.4. Please visit upgrade documentation for detailed instructions.
- The Service Pack download is available on Adobe Package Share, which you can access directly from the AEM 6.4 instance.
- On a deployment with MongoDB and multiple instances, the Service Pack 1 only has to be installed on one of the Author instances using the Package Manager.
- Before installing the service pack, ensure to:
- Have a snapshot or fresh backup of your AEM instance. Uninstalling the AEM 6.4.1.0 package is not supported.
- Restart the instance before installation. While that is only needed when the instance is still in update mode (and this is the case when the instance was just updated from an earlier version), it's generally recommended if the instance was running for longer period of time.
Perform the following steps to install the Service Pack on an existing AEM 6.4 instance:
- Login to Package Share within AEM or directly from your browser and download the AEM 6.4.1.0 package.(search for "AEM-6.4.1.0" to find it)
- Install the downloaded package using Package Manager.
Note:
Dialog on Package Manager UI sometimes exits immaturely during installation of 6.4.1.0
Therefore, it is recommended to wait for error logs to stabilize before accessing the instance. The user has to wait for specific logs related to uninstallation of updater bundle before being ensured that the installations is successful. It generally happens on Safari but can intermittently happen on any browser.
Note:
The best way to monitor the installation process is to tail the error.log. Proceed to Validate installation after the error.log goes quiet with "BundleEvent STARTED" messages
There are two ways to automatically install AEM 6.4.1.0 into a running instance:
A. Place the package into ../crx-quickstart/install folder while the server is running. The package gets installed automatically.
B. Use the HTTP API from Package Manager – make sure you use cmd=install&recursive=true – so the nested package are installed.
Note:
AEM 6.4.1.0 does not support Bootstrap installation.
- The Product Information page (/system/console/productinfo) should now show the updated version string "Adobe Experience Manager, Version 6.4.1.0" under Installed Products.
- All OSGI bundles are either ACTIVE or FRAGMENT in the OSGI Console (Use Web Console: /system/console/bundles).
- The OSGI bundle org.apache.jackrabbit.oak-core is on version 1.8.3 or higher (Use Web Console: /system/console/bundles).
To determine the certified platform for running with this release of AEM Sites and Assets, see Technical Requirements.
