In place upgrade of Adobe Experience Manager(AEM) to 6.2 version

In place upgrade of Adobe Experience Manager(AEM) to 6.2 version

This post will explain the steps to in place upgrade of Adobe Experience Manager(AEM) server to 6.2 version

• Backup the current Adobe Experience Manager(AEM) instance
• Copy aem-quickstart-6.2.0.jar next to current Adobe Experience Manager(AEM) crx-quickstart
• Perform regular maintenance activities - including workflow purge
• Run the Traversal check and Data store consistency check one by one - http://localhost:4502/system/console/repositorycheck
• Disable custom login moduels if any - make sure the default login module is configured as below in crx-quickstart/repository/repository.xml

        <LoginModule class="com.day.crx.core.CRXLoginModule">

            <param name="anonymousId" value="anonymous"/>

            <param name="adminId" value="admin"/>

            <param name="disableNTLMAuth" value="true"/>

            <param name="tokenExpiration" value="43200000"/>

            <!-- param name="trust_credentials_attribute" value="d5b9167e95dad6e7d3b5d6fa8df48af8"/ -->

</LoginModule>

• Stop the Adobe Experience Manager(AEM) server
• Remove all log files under crx-quickstart/logs
• chown -R aem:aem crx-quickstart(this command is required if AEM is running with different user)
• su aem(this commad is required if AEM is running with diffrent user)
• If you are migrating from AEM 5.x or AEM 6.0 with a CRX2 backend then follow URL - https://www.albinsblog.com/2015/09/upgrading-aemadobe-cq5-5.6.1-to-aemadobe-cq5-6.1.html
• If you are migrating from AEM 6.0 with a oak backend or 6.1 then execute java -jar aem-quickstart-6.2.0.jar -r author,crx3,crx3tar
• Monitor error.log and stderr.log – Once the migration is completed stderr.log will show the following message                                                                                                                           

          “Opening browser using cmd=x-www-browser "http://localhost:4502/"  || gnome-open                       "http://localhost:4502/"  || firefox "http://localhost:4502/"  || mozilla "http://localhost:4502/"               || konqueror "http://localhost:4502/"  || netscape "http://localhost:4502/"  || chromium-browser           "http://localhost:4502/"  || opera "http://localhost:4502/"  || links "http://localhost:4502/"  ||                lynx "http://localhost:4502/"

URL to check the version - http://localhost:4502/system/console/productinfo

Check the bundles in Installed state, most of the obsolete bundles will be removed after upgrade but some cases some of  the obsolete bundles will not be uninstalled - This can be ignored or uninstalled manually (better to compare the bundles with fresh 6.2 installation).Refer the following URL for details on obsolete bundles https://docs.adobe.com/docs/en/aem/6-2/deploy/upgrade/obsolete-bundles.html

Custom core bundles may not start due to the dependency issues. Refer the following URL for API difference between 6.1 and 6.2 - https://docs.adobe.com/docs/en/aem/6-2/develop/ref/diff-previous/changes/changes-summary.html

Update the maven dependency with correct version by identifying the version through depfinder -
