Install 6.4.8.0

Setup requirements

• AEM 6.4.8.0 requires AEM 6.4. For details, see upgrade documentation.
• The Service Pack download is available on Software Distribution portal for download.
• On a deployment with MongoDB and multiple instances, install AEM 6.4.8.0 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.
• 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.

Install the Service Pack via Package Manager

Perform the following steps to install the Service Pack on an existing AEM 6.4 instance:

1. Download the package from Software Distribution.

2. In AEM, login to Package Manager and add the downloaded AEM 6.4.8.0 package. Select the uploaded package and click Install.

Automatic installation

There are two ways to automatically install AEM 6.4.8.0 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.

Validate installation

1. The Product Information page (*/system/console/ productinfo *) should now show the updated version string “Adobe Experience Manager, Version 6.4.8.0” under Installed Products.
2. All OSGI bundles are either ACTIVE or FRAGMENT in the OSGI Console (Use Web Console: /system/console/bundles).
3. The OSGI bundle org.apache.jackrabbit.oak-core is on version 1.8.17 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.

Update Dynamic Media Viewers (5.10.1)

AEM 6.4.8.0 contains new version of Dynamic Media viewers (5.10.1) which enables check for duplicate names on Image Preset page. Dynamic Media customers are advised to run the following command to bring out of the box viewer presets to an up-to-date state.

curl -u admin:admin http://localhost:4502/libs/settings/dam/dm/presets/viewer.pushviewerpresets

which will copy new viewer presets to /conf location.

Install AEM forms add-on package

Install AEM forms add-on

1. Ensure that you have installed the AEM Service Pack.
2. Download the corresponding forms add-on package listed at AEM Forms releases for your operating system.
3. Install the forms add-on package as described in Installing AEM forms add-on packages.

Install AEM Forms JEE installer

For information about installing the cumulative installer for AEM Forms JEE and post-deployment configuration, see AEM Forms JEE Patch Installer 0015.

1. Go to Admin UI -> Services -> Workspace -> Global administration.
2. Export Global settings.
3. In the downloaded XML file, add the tag <client_tasksPollingInterval>10</client_tasksPollingInterval> Here, 10 is the example value in seconds. You can modify it accordingly.
4. Save the file.
5. Go back to Admin UI -> Services -> Workspace -> Global administration.
6. Import the xml file in the Import Global Settings section.
7. You can now logout of the system and log in again.
8. The count for shared queue starts refreshing for other users in the workspace.
9. To turn off the polling, change the value to 0 and import the XML file again.
